What kind of cereal?
Elizabeth i've never seen Murchies tea but theres a new shop opened in my local shopping mall that has all different types of tea that i've never heard of so it might do?!.Originally Posted by sashacat421
Susan, I don't drink coffee (I am such an outcast in Seattle, believe me) but I drink teas and I wanted to know if Murchie's Tea is there? It is my favorite. The Prince of Wales is my favorite but they make so many. Also, what does Twinings go for per lb? I want to see how much we have to pay here compared to there!
And I love Englad! What's a typical lunch??
Twinings tea, do you use the loose tea or the tea bags?.
We do them over here in a box of 40 tea bags and bigger boxes along with the loose. My ex boyfriend used to drink their breakfast tea and it didn't cost that much. I'll price it for you when i'm in town on saturday.
A typical lunch could be anything from a sandwich and a packet of crisps like i have when i'm at work......
to a pub lunch that consists of gammon such as this!......
I want, I want!
...
Only if the weathers really warm!.
Just before you get to Bamburgh Castle theres a place called "Seahouses" where there are seals and puffin birds, and only a couple of years ago in a place called Amble which is also in Northumberland they found a dolphin who stayed there for months and the locals called him Freddie!.
He was well looked after but i can't remember what happened to him?, i think he just took off?!.
Robin Hood with Kevin Costner was filmed there as well!, if i knew that then i'd have been banging on the Duke of Northumberlands door!!!
How interesting!

Alright guys lunch time over here, I'll be back in a few, I'm sure! Don't eat any Cadbury's or Rountree sweets without me!
Thnx on the Murchie's info. I think Fran would know if they come from Canada. I drink all my teas loose, and I'm a Ginseng afficionado. But I do lower myself to have tea bags at the office.
I know that because of the ties between China and England as well as India, really good Ginseng teas are highly sought after there. You lucky dogs.
It's only 10:30 here in Seattle but I wanna Pub Lunch! Crisps and fries at 10:30 am who cares? I'm on vacation!

Lumley Castle is well known for it's medieval banquets where they have their own (pretend) king and queen who welcome in the commoners like you and i!
Everyone is served by wenches and someone who went from work said you can have a knife and fork if you want otherwise you just get a knife and use your hands like they used to do back then.
Just my sort of meal!!
