Nathan, nathan you are misguided, I LOVED my years of sugar in tea, if I could go back I would, but alas I fear there is no return. I remain at one with the sugar in tea brigade, I do not want to convert them, all things are equal in the tea world. The drinking of the tea is enough, how we have it is pure relative taste for the individual, the important thing is that we are united in tea. It matters not if it is milky, strong, weak, sugary or not. (although those who merely dip the tea bag in and pull it away far too quickly may be indulging in the antichrist of tea drinking, but that’s another discussion

WItsy, thank you for your forgiveness. You are indeed a kind and wise person, if misguided on your views of hot chocolate!

Well, Bongo, I am still reeling from the news, but I have decided to forgive you. This is only because I think you’re great though!

As for Nathan’s comment about sugary tea not being ‘proper’ - pah! Don’t tell that to anyone in Africa! (And there are more of them than us so I fear that you non-sugar takers may get outvoted if we go globally-democratic on this).

Hot chocolate is simply vile and deserves to be re-classified as a useless-non-beverage-liquid(as do Horlicks and Oxo ‘drink’).

This announcement has been a long time coming. What it really says is that August 2007 marks the date that you really started to like tea. If people want a sweet hot drink, let them have hot chocolate. But if you want a true cup of greatness, stick to your sugar-free mugs. I’m so pleased for you.

Witsy, I’m sorry, it pains me it really does, I am almost angry with myself for giving in, but there is no return. There is no return. Please forgive me, I fear being ostrisised by people whom I once shared such sweet fellowship with in the sugar with tea community.

Mark- well done for commenting! You are clearly learning to use those paws well.

NOOOOOOO! This is terrible news! As someone who has 4 sugars in my tea (heaped), I must beg you to reconsider your unwise decision to move away from the sweet stuff. We sugar-lovers are a dying breed, in danger of being marginalised and shunned just like smokers. Soon they will be banning sugary tea in pubs for fear that someone nearby might get tooth decay by osmosis. Don’t jump ship Bongo! The sugar-lovers need you.

I have set up some sort of whatsname that makes a ‘ping!’ noise and sends me a popup when someone puts a new post on Important Blogs. Yours was the first on my new thingy, and I feel it was important enough to warrant the ping. Thank you.

Kath - I’m honoured to have been one of the two people to hear this momentous news via your blog. Could this mean that the rapture is imminent?
