Inspired by you guys, and being a bit squeamish, I found one of these while out and about today http://www.whittard.co.uk/ProductDetail ... uage=en-GB

A bit of a money saving tip though, the shop where I got it, a factory outlet shop in Ebbw Vale (but they are all over the country), were selling the same thing for £3 with a selection of teas as well.

So hopefully it's bye bye tea bags for me.

the thing i've got is like a sock, but with a wire hoop around the top. you sit it in your teapot, put the tea in it and then pour the water over the top.

It was white, but its gone a nice shade of tea brown now...

It is genius! Because its like a sock material, it doesn't let any tealeaves escape.

They haven't got them on the website. maybe they're not doing them anymore. migh have to run to the outlet near us and get a couple more for future use...

I haven't found them here in the UK yet at all; I always bring a few over when I go to Germany...
