I'm so pleased that tea got a mention at the end! The first thing I do when I get up is make, and drink, a cup of tea. It doesn't matter what time it is or where I'm going, tea always comes first. And if I have to be out of the house early (not so usual now that I'm retired) I make sure I account for 30 to 45 mins for tea when I set my alarm.

I'm also avidly searching for a reliable teasmade so that I can sometimes lie in and still have tea. The best of both worlds!

It’s also the ritual of having a cup of tea too isn’t it, a little time to yourself

Isn't this just depriving someone of something for a period of time and then the physical relief at having it again?
