Without tea, there's nothing worth fighting for

They should have known that trouble was brewing
They had to defend their teatorry.
*tearitorry
The tea must flow
Just had a nice flashback to my Grandmother.I can see her tea cups and saucers in my minds eye.
Didn't the British government buy the worlds wholeyearly production of tea just before the war?
I adore Ruth 🥰
Right have you seen where those British actors go back 48 hrs into the 1700 and have to live and work it's great
You Brit's and your T , kind of like us Yanks and our coffee lol
More like Yanks and their guns
Yes we have plenty, we also brought them over and helped whoop up on Germany
The British were so afraid of losing tea from india to japanese forces. They put all they had in asia to defend North East India.
Yes the tea gardens were only 50 or 60 km behind the lines.
But the Indo british forces held the line. The tea was saved.
Come to China, we are the Kingdom of Tea!
A bland drink for a bland people. Lol
Talking about coffee of course
ILL STICK WITH MY PERVITIN THANK YOU VERY MUCH...
Real.
Tea is so mid
Coffee is so much better.
I've never had a good cup of tea, so all this sounds absurd.
you probably just have havent had any good tea.. so it probably wouldn’t sound as absurd for the other millions of people that enjoy it
I’ll agree. Don’t even like tea
i mean change the word tea for coffee, i bet its a good thing to have on a battlefield for morale
Also, a hot drink is always good to have when youve been outside for weeks
What a paradox of an opinion. Didn't u see "i"
They were addicted to caffeine, not 🍵
But caffeine from tea and not coffee
It's really not a thing these days
