British High Tea Time

@mawnansmiff it's Yorkshire in my house too, that's our favourite black tea.

I always scald my mug for a teabag, or scald the pot for loose leaf. Any other 'scalders' out there?

Every time. Part of why I like my tea trays so I can pour water over the pots while I’m doing longer infusions to keep them hot.

Absolutely, it's called 'warming the pot' over here and an un-warmed pot is frowned upon by some of the older generation .

Though I have quite a collection of teapots, as I live alone my tea is generally made straight in the mug and I'm too lazy/mean to warm the mug just for myself.
