Sit down, have a drink. We have tea and coofee. Would you like some? Enjoy yourselves, and have a chat. Post a smiley for what your character is doing if you can. Feel free to discuss anything, so long as it avoids the above topics. The poll for today, will have to do with tea, and coffee.

Why would you put cream in tea? It should have a little milk; anything else is blasphemy.

Why would any sane creature drink coffee? That's nasty. :)

Black tea is the only possible choice listed.

I'd agree. Although coffee with hot chocolate doesn't seem too bad.

Where's the "none of the above" option? I like none of them!

Time to start a 200 page flame war about how you're repressing my rights to drink as I want...

So sorry. Last time I posted something like this no body chose that option. And there really wasn't enough room. All ten options are taken up. If you don't want any of the above, then don't vote.

Hmm. Tea is nice.

But what's this 'cream' business? I'll have MILK thank you very much! And 2 'lumps' of sugar.

Er, there wasn't enough room for both cream, AND milk. I'm partial to milk too, but cream is more traditional so... Maybe I should have put "cream/milk"...

with coffee i put milk and chocklet, or just milk. tea i usualy put nothing but for either i prefer deep interesting flavours. ethiopian mocha harrare for coffee and lapsong souchong for tea.

chocklet pralines go good with either as do gran marina' truffles

a quiet corner overlooking the garden. informal public gardens where anyone may come to meditate, but such is the world the place and the culture that, while many permit themselves to be at times roudy and disruptive, those who do have their own places to do so. they are even encouraged to have their own places to do so.

this way the public meditation garden remains a place of peace.

there is no rule of silence. people do converse. generaly quietly, though occasional aggitation is only sentient. though considered impolite and generaly embarrassing and thus usualy avoided and usualy successfully.

many small creatures live peacefully in the garden, making a subtle and quite accompanyment to wind chimes and the distant sound of solar battery miniature railways that are, other then shank's mares, very nearly the only traffic. thoug the occassional beast of burden, while uncommon is not entirely unheard of either.

old men, sitting at tables with inlayed patterns designed for it, play a game not unlike chess, but more like a combination of ma jong and chess. peices in odd and interesting shapes with unfamiliar names, meaningful only to the game's affectionadoes.

artists come here often too. sometimes with easils but usualy just sketchbooks. often trading them back and forth and drawing in each other's.

During most of the day, coffee, with lots of milk (and I mean real coffee, not that American dishwater). Towards around 5 PM, I have some sort of tea, varying from green, black, or herbal.

I don't really have a preference, I ususally just have whatever's available. If there's a choice, something like English Breakfast in the morning or Darjeeling in the afternoon.

Since there's no milk option, I'm having my tea black, though I'd normally have a drop of milk in it. I prefer Assam or Afternoon tea while we're at it.
