Hello there! I'm Conor one of the new Community Educators

mrjeeves we’ll agree to disagree on the tea 😅. I have yet to get a bad cup of tea though so I’ll try your method

I feel a new acting double act coming on.

Well… never say never 😉

If you’ve still got the suit, then I can source a cheap wig and some facepaint off of Amazon 😂

i_am_sy I really didn’t think my tea making method would be so controversial so quickly 😅

Thanks @gwpreston it’s really nice to meet you, and I am really looking forward to getting started 🙂

@clara4 it is absolutely lovely to meet you and I look forward to getting to know you more 🙂

Yeah I’d also recommend putting it in a cup and filling it all the way up not a half full glass……lol

I won’t even mention coffee lol

isabel1066 thanks so much, I really look forward to speaking with you more 🙂

@i_am_sy I don’t even know where to start with a coffee, i’ve now been outed as a non coffee drinker 😅

@bluemoonbaz thanks for welcoming me, it means a lot 🙂. Cheers for the backup on the tea, #teammilkfirst

Hey Conor! conor_jm

Sounds like you’re into food, like really into food! So I was a bit confused why you have chosen Masterchef Australia as your go-to cooking show??? Is there any story behind it??? There’s a lot of cooking shows in a lot of different countries these days….

I would welcome you to the giffgaff community but it sounds like you’ve already made yourself at home (working previously as an Agent)!

i_am_sy

conor_jm don’t even know where to start with a coffee, i’ve now been outed as a non coffee drinker 😅

Haha whoops!

First step is to make it the right way, unlike tea haha

mrjeeves

conor_jm #teammilkfirst

Just to clarify… is it milk before the water? Milk after the water but before the teabag? Or even gulp milk, teabag, water? (At that point you may as well just skip the water altogether!)

Hi its nice to meet you

conor_jm

sha_shah1 it’s absolutely lovely to meet you too 🙂

@jeff_elephant I’m not quite sure what it is that I like about Masterchef Australia - I have just been watching it for years and they often cook a lot of street food on the show which I really enjoy. I also really like watching Saturday Kitchen but I can never do the recipes on any of these cooking shows justice 😅. I have a background as an agent but the community is very different and I have absolutely loved meeting our fantastic members like yourself on the community 🙂

mrjeeves it's brew the tea in a teapot, put milk in the cup, then pour the tea in to the cup. Maybe it's just an Irish thing, or just a Conor thing 😆

@scottliddle25126585 Thanks for welcoming me 😃 it's fantastic to be here and I look forward to speaking with you more 🙂

Ok, that isn’t as bad… I thought you were brewing with milk and water! But you can’t tell how strong your tea is that way! What if you put too much milk in?! 😛

Doing that means you can’t control the strength of the tea lol

Tea bag in mug
Hot water
Get it to just the right strength
Remove tea bag
Add milk until the perfect colour
Sugar/whatever
Stir
Give to Sy, or punch him in the face - one of the two.

conor_jm it’s brew the tea in a teapot,

Wow, proper tea 👍

I can’t remember when I last had that!

conor_jm it’s brew the tea in a teapot

Leaf tea or tea bag?
Whichever it is, I trust you warm the pot before adding the tea.

conor_jm

mrjeeves and @i_am_sy you are making good points but if I make the tea with the tea bag in in a mug what happens if I want to go back for a second cup - use a new tea bag? 😅

@chaaaan thank you so much, I look forward to talking with you more 🙂

conor_jm Welcome to the community Conor .

good post wa wawa😍😍😍😍😍😍😄

i_am_sy

conor_jm use a new tea bag?

Absolutely!

Boil water again and start over, a quick rinse of the cup is fine and away you go lol

Welcome to the giffgaff forum conor_jm Given your experience as an agent you will have great insight into the everyday problems members have.

ALthough I'm not a golfer, I have many friends who play and the most wonderful local golf course at Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Club. If your are ever in Northumberland it's definitely worth calling by for a round.

Although I mainly drink coffee rather than tea if I do have a cuppa I want it exactly as you say. Made in a pot and poured into a cup after the milk. Strength is controlled by serving the tea with a pot of boiling water i_am_sy ☕

conor_jm Hi Conor,
Welcome to giffgaff community. Glad to meet you.

conor_jm

bvbc It’s absolutely fantastic to meet you too, I look forward to getting to know you more 🙂

@oliviazali thank you, it’s wonderful to be here 🙂

@davidevans0000 cheers for welcoming me, I can’t wait to get stuck in 🙂

@peterdbsc for me the tea becomes a guessing game in terms of how dark it is - it’s a bit of a lottery really 😅 I don’t take sugar either, but I add a sweetener on occasion to spice things up a bit
