Rosemary Gault	I'm not sure that Gavin Mist would be able to get nice cup of tea in germany even if he took his own teabags. I've always found the problem to be that when you ask for a cup of tea, you get given a pot of lukewarm water, a jug of cream and a teabag. If you can persuade someone to pour the boiling water directly on the tea and to replace the cream with milk, the tea is actually quite nice. If you can't do this, just drink the green tea or the stuff they do called kaminfeuer which is quite nice without milk. Incidentally its worth going to german tea shops to stock up as they sell a huge variety of really really nice loose leaf tea which is tastes fantastic as long as its made in the proper (ie british) fashion.
Robin G	I do apologize for the shock Kate Allen has received, but have to say that I'm not really surprised. My father, who I believe burned off his taste buds some time ago, will not only reheat his tea or coffee in the microwave several times, but has been known to come back to the same not yet finished cup the following day, scrape off whatever that is floating on top, and heat it again. I prefer a fresh cuppa. Robin G.
Charles	Dear Mr and Mrs Nicey. I'm new to this country and would love a bit of a sit-down and some cake. The people I'm currently resting with keep going on about a man called Mr.Kipling, who they say (using a funny voice) makes exceedingly good cakes. I'm after your help - Who is Mr. Kipling? Where does he come from? Does he make exceedingly good cakes? And if so, where should I start? Kind Regards, Charles.
	Nicey replies: Oh yes Mr Kipling is the man, you'll be alright with any of his stuff. His website isn't too shoddy either, full marks there. It will tell you all you need to know, but you might do well to get stuck into some of his Cherry Bakewell tarts, French fancies, Country slices and Fruit pies.
Kate Allen	Dear Nicey, I was just making myself a fortifying cuppa when someone strolled into the office kitchen, stuck their cold cup of tea in the microwave for about 30 seconds and then wandered off with it looking most happy. what a violation of the noble art of tea-making! do any other of your readers have similar shocking tales? k
John Myers HobNob Review	Dear Nicey, Well, under Doctor's orders I'm cutting wheat out of my diet for a while, which, as I'm sure you can imagine, leaves a biscuit-shaped hole in my diet. No more Lotus caramelised for me. It saddens the heart I tell you. Imagine my joy when I discovered the fact that Hob Nobs don't in fact contain wheat! I almost danced round the supermarket.....do you have any recommendations on other biscuits that are suitable for my wheat-free existence? Regards to the wife John Brighton, UK
	Nicey replies: I hadn't actually realised that about HobNobs, although they aren't listed as wheat free on the United Biscuits special diets page. You might also console yourself with some Nairns Oat cakes and maybe a pot of nice jam, it could help keep you sane. I've also heard some good reports of wheat free Bourbons stocked at Holland and Barrett I think.
