eummm What's the it angle? Apart from that it ppl also need tea breaks

We, the IT people drink coffe. at least, during the daytime.
So What's the IT angle?
Posted Tuesday 31st March 2009 10:16 GMT
..and the IT infrastructure that the tea depeneds on.... wait.... what's this story about again?
Posted Tuesday 31st March 2009 10:16 GMT
raw ingredients (tesco prices)
3 teaspoons sugar, about 1 pence
1 pg tips teabag, about tuppence
splash of milk, about halfpennyworth
boiling water, not that much
So even a 100% hike wouldn't actually affect underlying costs.

reg hacks need to swot up on the difference between "IT" and "High Tea"

Don't give a shit about the price of oil and petrol. But a cuppa is every man's right. The government should introduce a "windfall" tax on Brooke Bond, et al. and cut their bonuses. I bet MPs get an increase in their expenses to cover the dramatic rise but what about the man in the street?

I don't know. What's the IT angle of your face?

Never heard of the Lyons Electronic Office ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LEO_(computer)
Besides, I may have to cut down my usage of my Infinite Improbability Drive if the cost of a nice hot cup of tea goes up much more.

... this is serious business. As such it should be reported in ALL British publications from the Beekeeper's Almanac to the Cottager's Daily...

Please don't ask Professor Kevin Warwick that question!

Okay, we got the price in Kenya, the drought situation and production reduction in India - but what we really want to know is, what's the price of tea in China?
Posted Tuesday 31st March 2009 12:00 GMT
please see piece on "luteal phase". Or maybe you already have?

I'm sure we can arrange an IT angle on his face with a few 4U servers I have knocking around....

I don't need hormones to make me angry. I just need hundreds and hundreds of commentards like you. You're like living, breathing, belching, prattling, sniggering internet hormones who struggle to come up with original ideas.

Thanks for that!
I laughed so hard a little wee came out!

"We, the IT people drink coffe."
Less of the 'we'
I'm the IT guy in my office and I can't stand coffee.
Mine's the one with the flask of tea in the pocket.

Don't worry Sarah - he's only showing off because he learned things about women's bodies from that show on channel 4 last night.
Most of those hormonal teens were far more experienced and mature than weirdcult can ever hope to be - he probably lives in his mum's box room and has a circle of stiff socks around his workstation.

Everyone knows computers are run by brownian motion devices at their core, such as a nice cup of tea. CPU prices will soar.

It would of course be... almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.

Sugar in tea is just plain wrong.
Yorkshire Tea all the way

First the Scottish government decide I'm not paying enough for my lager, and now this. I might as well just stock the cellar full of bottled water and tins, then come out when everything is better again.
Posted Tuesday 31st March 2009 15:44 GMT
What's the IT angle? *I* need *TEA*. Isn't that enough?

Just had 3Kg of loose-leaf Welsh Brew delivered to the house- cost us about a tenner. Me & the Mrs love tea. Once that supply runs out (in about a month, maybe), then we'll be seriously concerned about a doubling of the wholesale price. Mind you, if we stopped snorting it off the naked derrieres of the local rugby team's hookers and started boiling it, maybe that would help..?
