I have stocked up and boarded up my windows as well as buying a shotgun.
Francis Rowe ● 977d
I was in supermarkets in Acton just now and they seemed to be well stocked with tea but you are probably right to take no chances.
Mark Evans ● 977d
Now you've blown it - everyone knows you have tea.
Andrew Jones ● 977d
I have some decaffeinated tea that is best before 2016. Does that count?
Guy Lambert ● 977d
No problems. Morrison's in Acton heaving with the stuff.
Susan Kelly ● 977d
I'm ok.I have some 200 tea bags in stock of various blends ... but I've read that 4-5 cups of coffee a day is better for you ...for longer life etc.So Nicholas's posting is may be good news!

Yemen, insider dealing.
Mark Frost ● 977d
Tea or tea bags?
Keith Iddon ● 976d
Both.Tea bag for a quick cuppa, leaf Assam for a proper pot of tea, leaf Earl Grey for SWMBO.

Love this response Francis! Quite a rare find to come across genuine humour on this forum these days!
Delilah Hall ● 976d
No doubt the usual knob heads that got loads of bog rolls and pasta four years ago are planing to stash loads of tea right now.
Brian Green ● 976d
The humor on this thread is very refreshing!

Loose leaf English breakfast as strong as you can make it for me.
Sainsburys red label leaf tea

Good to see you all so infusiastic.

Don't waste money on Yorkshire tea bags.The supermarket own brand extra strong as just as good and about half price.The ones from Morrison's contain no plastic in the make up of the bag.
best lay in plenty of tinfoil too

Depends where you buy your Yorkshire tea bags. £25.00 for 1080.
N V Brooks ● 975d
Not much in it,they usually retail at £1.99 for 80.They are just slightly more expensive,but if they were sold in such a huge bag would be much cheaper I would think.
Keith Iddon ● 975d
I am obviously not looking hard enough as the cheapest I have found Taylor's Yorkshire Tea bags is £2.90 for 80.
Humour?
Francis Rowe ● 975d
A fiver for 240 in Poundland in the Oaks Shopping Centre
Mark Evans ● 975d
Now £5.50 for 210 Yorkshire Tea in Poundland and there were no larger boxes when I went into both Sainsbury's in Chiswick and Lidl in Acton this week.

Are you doing mousetraps, loo roll, and sugar like my Nan ?Don't let the teabags lure you into a feeling of safety...
Tessa Russell ● 953d
It's funny you mentioned loo rolls somebody did mention it may be as well to get extra in.
