Tea Pigs

When we were in Cambridge the weekend before last we had brunch in Fitzbillies. To quench my thirst I had a good ol' cuppa; but it wasn't any old tea. It was a teapig. Even though it was just an English breakfast, it was the most delicious tea I've had, ever I think! Even better than my favourite Lady Grey! Teapigs come in tea temples, biodegradable bags which are better for proper tea and they come in some most magnificent flavours: popcorn tea, jasmine pearls tea, spiced winter red tea, super fruit tea, chilli chai and chocolate flake tea. I'm just gonna have to get trying!

The Cam

I fell in love with Cambridge a little bit more this weekend. It was my brother's 21st birthday celebrations so we descended on the city for a few days. We had a late lunch at The Free Press, walking past some gorgeous terraced houses to get to it from college, and then had a delicious three course meal for 40 in an upstairs dining room in Emma for A's birthday. Today we had a later breakfast of tea, coffee, orange juice and sausage rolls at Fitzbillies, a Cambridge and Stephen Fry favourite. We wandered around the city, through and past spectacular college buildings and seeing punters punt and cows graze by the canal. Idyllic!

Mini Sartorialist

My (not so) little brother started at Cambridge this academic year and he has got involved with the student newspaper by doing the Varsartorialist, snappy his peers around the university and cataloguing their stylish ways. He's just popped them onto his Flickr - which has other great stuff - I can't wait to see more soon!
