BBC - Coventry and Warwickshire Features - Appeal for flag-bearers ()

  „"Our international links are important to us and many twinings have been solidarity links with war-torn places. It would be fantastic to see Russians, Americans and Chinese all walking together proud to be representing themselves and their countries as part of the city's Godiva Festival."“

BBC - Devon Features - Did cream teas originate in Tavistock in 997AD? BBC - Devon Features - Did cream teas originate in Tavistock in 997AD?

  „The problem with cream teas is the low quality and high price everywhere except in a few fantastic places. This summer we have paid as much as £17 a head in a mediocre Torquay waterside hotel and £11 a head in an indifferent Plymouth Barbican caff. At the other end of the scale we have paid £4 for a fantastic spread in an Inn on the corner of the square in Chagford with three huge fresh scones and large pots of local organic jam and an overgenerous dish piled high with clotted cream.Too many businesses palm off tourists and locals alike with tacky mean tasteless offerings designed only to profiteer.“

  „To have the finest cream tea, you have to start with the finest ingredients - fantastic cream and the perfect scone. Arguably the best cream in Britain is produced in the West Country, particularly around Devon and Cornwall - and, by no huge coincidence, this region is home to the most delectable cream teas in all the land. Who can resist moist buttery scones, topped with rich clotted cream and a few sweet spoonfuls of strawberry jam? That's right no one.“

  „Fortune's overseas adventures included investigations into the commercial opportunities in growing tea. Commissioned by the British East India Company, he disguised himself as a Chinese peasant as he smuggled out cuttings of the tea plant Camellia sinensis from China into India. These cuttings enabled India and Ceylon to become established as major growers and exporters of tea.“
