Perfect for inviting your friends round for a cuppa and a cake.

This coming weekend (15/16th May) teapigs will be exhibiting at the first ever UK Coffee Festival being held at the Recreational Ground in Bath, Somerset. Well, someone had to stand up for our national drink and fly the flag for real tea. So if you are in the area please do pop along and say hello. We'll have our complete range of tea temples on sale at special festival prices. Free admission for all. Celebrity chef Martin Blunos will be around all weekend and you can even get to learn to Salsa or Samba.
so who invited you?
Nicole and Nick had a day out in Kent today. Well, a half day to be exact at our very friendly and very efficient distribution company, Lenham Storage. These are the guys who look after all our boxes of tea and make sure that they get sent to all the shops, cafes, restaurants, bars, pubs, and hotels who serve and sell teapigs. A vital link in the supply chain as they say in the world of logistics. So, a big thanks to all the team there and especially to Linda (pictured) who basically sorts everything for us in such a friendly and helpful manner. What a star.

Last night I had the big pleasure of going to see the wonderful Angus and Julia Stone. Brother and sister singer-song writers from Sydney, Australia - these two are superbly talented (well, in my opinion at least!). Having seen them in 2008 in their native country, I was not dissapointed second time round! I'm not sure if they're teapigs fans but I would guess that peppermint leaves or jasmine pearls would be their faves..maybe I'll ask them?! (by Hannah)
Alex and I (Sofia) are feeling a little tiny bit worse for wear today thanks to our friends at the Anthologist Bar, St Paul's. The Anthologist is the City's latest teapigs stockist (hurrah!) and yesterday was their opening night where we were treated to scrummy food and lots of bubbly (making me feel like Carrie, from Sex in the City). Anyways, next time you're in the City and fancy some teapigs pop into this place. The staff are very friendly and know how to make the most perfect cup of tea thanks to Nick's training session last week (photos below). Enjoy!

Well, if you are lucky enough to be visiting Paris then you can now have your favourite teapigs tea at Lina's, 61 rue Pierre Charron (just off the Champs Elysees). As their shop front says, they make beautiful sandwiches as well as some great salads, tartes, desserts and cakes. Their friendly staff will be more than happy to serve you with some delicious tea so brush up on your French and perfect your accent when asking for your favourite cuppa. (by Nick).
I'm sure, like me, most of you can enjoy a cup of freshly brewed teapigs at any time of the day (or night!) but for fans of 'afternoon tea', The Langham Hotel in London has been named the best place to enjoy a spot of the traditional lifestyle! 
Every April, Irene Gorman of The Tea Guild - an organisation representing 100 of the UK's most prestigious tea places - casts her beady eye over establishments across the UK and decifers a winner of both Top Afternoon London Tea and Top Tea Place. Palm Court at The Langham joins a whole host of previous top-knotch winners including the The Dorchester, The Lanesborough and Browns Hotel.
Starting at £35.00 per person, it's not a cheap treat but we love the fact that tea is getting so much attention! Whether you like to splash out on a whole afternoon, or curl up on the sofa with your favourite teapigs brew - tea is terrific and we love it!

We've made a few small changes to our packs. Many of you wrote to us saying wouldn't it be nice to put something on the side of our packs so that when they are lined up in a kitchen cupboard you could identify which teapig was which. Very simple. Very good idea. Thank you. Consider it done. We've also added some foreign languages to help all those lovely people in far away places know how we make our teas. Our "new improved" packs available now. Same great tea inside.
