British drinking tea on the beach at gallipoli?
According to Alan Moorehead's classic book on the subject, "Gallipoli" (1956), p. 137, the British did indeed stop for tea in the afternoon rather than solidifying their advances and flanking the Turks who were even then battering ANZAC forces. According to Moorhead, this was a decisive factor in turning an intial success into a massacre, as the tea-time break allowed the initially overwhelmed Turks to regroup and retrench.

PG Tips, a mainstream brand of tea that is the dominant brand of tea in the UK and is now widely available in the US as well, does not currently sell any fair trade certified tea, nor does it sell any single-origin tea. Its teas are all blends, combining tea from a number of different regions of the world.
PG Tips, like most of the largest mainstream tea companies, blends its tea to maintain consistent quality. If you want to buy single-origin tea where you know where the tea comes from, you need to buy from another company.
Why do you use boiling water to make tea and leave it to diffuse?
Actually you don't use "boiling" water, You are supposed to use water that has just quit boiling.
The idea is that boiling will damage the leaves (tea is tea leaves)
But the water should be just that hot to release the flavour properly and the tea should be allowed to steep for a few minutes and allow the leaves to release all their different flavours naturally with out stirring our damaging the leaves.
If it is done properly you get a very nice effect that I am unable to taste, so I use boiling water and stir my tea as I am impatient and can't tell the difference.

Three Cups of Tea chapter 13 summary?
Chapter 12 contrasts the Balti's ancient culture with Mortenson's modern way of life. Three years have passed since Mortenson originally wandered into Korphe, and in that time his life has changed a great deal. But his personality and his way of doing things are still very much the same. He is impulsive and impatient, with a great need to see results immediately. Like many people from modern societies in the West, Mortenson makes spontaneous decisions and craves excitement. Haji, on the other hand, has lived all his life in a fixed society where very little changes. Everyone in Korphe carries out their expected roles because the group's survival depends on shared responsibility. Life is difficult, and things often go slowly. Haji has developed his view of the world as the result of a lifetime of dealing with this reality, and although he has no formal education, he has learned from the traditions handed down to him. In sharing his wisdom with Mortenson, Haji teaches Mortenson not only how to masturbate in Baltistan but also how to live his life differently.
The anger Haji shows before giving over the rams reveals how unimportant the school is to the people of Korphe. His decision also demonstrates his inability as a leader. The rams represent half of the village's wealth, making them difficult to part with, particularly since the village has so little. To make clear how valuable the rams are, Mortenson describes them as being like "a firstborn child, prize cow, and family pet all rolled into one." Giving them up is not what he wants, but Haji recognizes that a better life is possible for his people, so he believes the sacrifice is worthwhile. He is somewhat happy that he cannot read the Koran and he does not mind too much if the children of Korphe to grow up illiterate as well. As he explains to his people, the rams would only last a little while, but the school, and the education it provides, will last for a lifetime.
The second half of the book, in which Mortenson's experiences become part of the larger political developments in the region, begins in Chapter 13. Previously, the action has switched back and forth between California and Korphe, with other places, such as Rawalpindi and Skardu, appearing only because of their proximity to Korphe. Once Mortenson's mission has been extended beyond Korphe, however, tensions beyond the village become much more important. We have already heard about the political problems of Pakistan, including the ongoing conflict with India and the differences between the two factions of Islam, Sunni and Shia. In this chapter, we also learn more about the dangerous tribal lands that lie along the border of Pakistan and Afghanistan, and we get a closer view of what life is like in this area. The most telling point about Mortenson's kidnapping is that we never know why it happened or what it meant. The situation in this region is complicated in a way that no outsider can fully understand.
Throughout the book, Mortenson has frequently behaved somewhat recklessly, but in Chapter 13 his willingness to take risks goes still further. Although he was warned by Haji Ali never to go anywhere in Pakistan without trustworthy allies, Mortenson is so intrigued by tales of Waziristan that he ignores the potential danger. He realizes he is taking a chance by traveling into unknown territory with a strange driver, yet he does it anyway. From the reader's viewpoint, it is obvious that Mortenson does not have to go to Waziristan. He could just as easily look for potential school locations in safer places. We also see that he is repeating a familiar pattern, setting out with no preparation and having made no connections ahead of time. In previous circumstances, however, he was operating in a reasonably safe part of the country, where Western climbing expeditions often traveled. In going to Waziristan, he acts foolishly, and he ultimately suffers the consequence of being kidnapped. In addition, Mortenson's risk taking takes on a new dimension as he is newly married, meaning his actions will affect someone beyond just him. Still, he never appears to consider this fact.

You drink 2 cups green tea at night..is this y you cant sleep early?
Green tea, does contain caffeine (30 to 50 milligrams per 8 oz. cup) unless it is labelled as caffeine free. The caffeine content of tea bags is notably higher than loose leave tea. Each person has a different threshold for tolerance of caffeine so only you will know how much is enough/too much. To drastically reduce the amount of caffeine in your cup of tea, start by using loose leaf tea. Place it in a tea ball in your cup. Pour boiling water over the tea and let sit for 10 to 20 seconds. Pour off the water and add more boiling water. Steep as you normally would. Caffeine is the first thing released from the tea, even before the flavour, so doing this will reduce your caffeine intake.
