I haven't gone back to look at what I actually wrote.
As for hanging out on the board on a Saturday night - as of Monday I will have been married 18 years - I'm used to boring weekends.
You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What is his take on the proper cup of tea?

Now tagless for your comfort.

a blogger noted it for you here. It requires BOILING (as opposed to BOILED) water and milk.
And he LIES! I'm American and I've had perfectly good cups of tea. Only...you know...in England.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
What is his take on the proper cup of tea?
Boil the water (tea is to be made with boil*ing* not boil*ed* water).
Once it is boiling, swish a little around in the pot, to warm it.
Dump the water out, add tea bag(s)*, then pour in the (still boiling) water.
Let it steep for a couple minutes.
You can take this opportunity to put milk in your cup, if you like. This is not polite, but it prevents scalding the milk.
Pour the tea.
* Tea bags are not optimal, but the instructions are for Americans, so one step at a time. He also suggests Earl Grey.
eta: not too bad, on comparison, given that it was from memory.

Yes. This is very much a proper cuppa, imho.

Apparently Alton Brown says you don't want to actually boil the water because of the potential of releasing chemicals that might be in the water.

My solution to this is bottled water for tea.

Hmmm...I wonder if filtered is good enough.
