Probably the drier eastern slopes of the Pennines are better suited to growing tea. Let them stick to there treacle mines

yes that's a nice strong cup, beats the all other teas. Tea spoon has to stand upright on it's own , that is a good strong cup then :;):

Canâ€™t say id heard of Lancashire tea before! Just looked on Wikipedia and there based in Liverpool! Merseyside tea just doesnâ€™t sound right though!

On a site today, only one decent tea bag in the house and the structural engineer got to that before we arrived, we were offered earl grey or lemon tea.

Out came the flask
