Since everyone else kicked me, you are the best.
Okay just kidding. As I have been looking for information about tea I found two English chats and two German ones. But this is the only one where is a lot of activity. Some members are strange (as I am) and most members are truly nice and very helpful.
I learn a lot and I have lots of fun here.
Teaware Artisans is great - I am getting addicted

And OTTI isn't beatable.
And almost forgot - we have the greatest Mod of all here
So thanks a lot to everyone for the fun here.

A from me.
TC has awesome crowds and cool mod - all is helpful and knowledgeable! I learned a lot from here. Have not desire to visit other tea forums after joining TC. All I need is here!
Organic Tenryu Misakubo shincha from Yuuki-Cha this morning.

I'm rooting for Uruguay. I know their chances are slim ...
Will make a nice cup of Golden Curls and watch the drama to unfold.

Really?? Even though they only beat Ghana because of a guy catching the ball with his hands and preventing a goal? Ughhh!! Couldn't believe that, lol

It would be so boring without the controversy and drama, wouldn't it ?
Now at least there's something to discuss, argue, agree/disagree about.
And feelings are just feelings, nothing to do with fairness sometimes
It is so hot here today. Many years ago I travelled to Turkmenistan/ Tadjikistan and it was more than hundred degrees and all the locals were sitting in Chai Khanas (or tea cafes) clad in their traditional clothing and sipping tea. So that's what I will do right now.
