    Fruit teas were never my fav, and it depends if they are made with real bits of fruit or just with oils....
    I'd recommend (LOL with my tea brewing expertise) dont put boiling water on it, about 10 secs after its clicked off, give it about 3 minutes to brew, try it without any sweet in it first, and then just add tiny bits of honey to taste.
    Some are naturally quite sweet, others dependant on quality taste like dish water :o

    Enjoy xx

    CAFC if i have my way (or a miracle happens) then the house next door to me will soon be vacant. They're sooooooo noisy, i've been complaining to the council about them but am fantasising that they'll get kicked out (won't happen :rolleyes:)

    All i seem to do lately is moan and i'm not even preg anymore :rotfl: I moan about family, neighbours, my ex... it never ends :rotfl:

    I still haven't registered Amber, the reg.office can't fit us in til next Tuesday :eek: She'll be over 3 weeks by then lol. When i had DS you just went and did it in 5 mins, now u need appts. grr. < see? more moaning :D

    thats shocking about reg office. is it a back log for xmas or just general ness of most paper pushing places...

    Admittedly it took 4 weeks for someone to be able to let us know if our marriage was legal in this country, or if we'd have to register it, got married in usa.... and after 4 weeks we got some cack letter with a one line answer and then a load of blurb about how for £100 theyd store our wedding cert, which we could never get the original back for and would only ever be sent copies - Oh yes please sign me up for that immediately!!! I'll store it myself, photocopy it myself and rub my £100 over my face thanks!

    Plus you can moan hun, we all can, its part of the ongoing journey of motherhood as my baby book has just told me LOL I knew this thing would come up trumps for me!

    Maybe we should go for coffee (and cake) next tues and celebrate Amber being a real proper registered to one day pay tax person :)

    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.
