Hard to keep a stiff upper lip without a proper cup of tea.

Blimey. If they don’t have their morning tea ( or coffee on this side of the pond ) no work will get done post nuke unless we stockpile it now!!!

“..there would be a dramatic shortage of tea in the aftermath of a nuclear attack..”

But what about the crumpets that are part of the afternoon tea? Will they too disappear? Oh, the horror!!

I would rather have emergency tea planning than the plans the US government had for getting out tax forms after a nuclear war.

That’s a piss-poor thing to be concerned about! What about really important issues? Where would you get your beer after a Nuclear War???!!!

Tea is very expensive in China, too. I drink it all day, without sugar. I brew it fresh and drink weak ice tea all day. It keeps me away from coffee, cokes, etc. I hope we don’t have a problem of shortages of it here in US.

We can learn from this. Post nuclear-war, I won’t be able to download music, get cable TV, or buy Red Bull. I’m downloading MP3s, buying DVDs, and stocking up on soft drinks like a madman now!

Never mind the radiation: British contingency planners worried there would be a dramatic shortage of tea in the aftermath of a nuclear attack, recently declassified documents showed Monday.

But they didnt give a damn about the consequences when putting a tax on American tea.

WHAT!!!!!

This is poor planning at its highest. No Tea?!!!

The Empire was forged on cups of tea, and I suppose, fell to pieces on cups of tea too. I would surrender myself to the side with the most tea bags left.

Hahaha.

I know it is a slightly aging thread, but all I can say is good luck getting us Southerns into a bunker with not sweet tea!
