All Kinds of Tea
Here in Cambridge we are lucky enough to be swamped in an abundance of culture and creativity. You don't have to hop on your bike for long to find yourself between scenes which would be at home on an anchor butter advert. There are more bikes than people, and there are so many different types of people. The types of people I've been getting to know in the last couple of months are the Buddhist types, mainly the types who enjoy reading (which is lots of you gladly).
I joined Windhorse Publications in October 2010 and since then I have learned a great deal. I've been enjoying some admin, marketing, filing, photocopying, posting, emailing, snail mailing, phoning and the odd cup of tea. It is more often than not an odd cup of tea too. I'm sure lots of you have a collection of tea that could rival a Twining's Tea commercial but at home I rarely touch the stuff. After working at Costa I gave up caffein for about six months and steered clear of most hot drinks. I've never been into breakfast tea, it tastes to me like warm water with a hint of.. eugh. But on my first day at Windhorse I found the cupboard a whole new sensory experience. As some of you might know Sarah is a keen Chai drinker. She showed me the ways of Chai and now there's no going back for me, it was for me the gateway tea into a new world. It was the perfect time of year for Chai tea too, the spicy festive warmth so suits Christmas. Nowadays I enjoy fruit teas as I find them more refreshing and I'm not so keen on soya milk.
A good cup of tea rehydrates your body and rests your mind. Holding a hot cuppa helps the circulation in your fingers and offering a cup of tea to your colleagues is the quickest and most basic form of team building exercise on the market.
