PG Tips half time cuppa comp

This summer there is only really one cup that Wifey and I are interested in, the one which helps wash down our biscuits, although strictly it's a mug. Still, with all the half time tea drinking ahead this summer NCOTAASD and PG Tips have teamed up to bring you an inspired tea orientated, sport led, eco-friendly win a cutting edge kettle sort of competition.

After all, it’s a well-known fact that those half-time power spikes are down to people running to the kettle and flicking that switch. If everybody boiled just the amount of water they needed we would save enough energy to practically run all the street lights in the UK, and could also take the edge off those half time power spikes.

To help you on your way, PG Tips is offering three lucky NCOTAASD readers a fantastic eco-friendly kettle, a special edition PG Tips football mug and a year’s supply of PG Tips tea, oh and we're throwing in a copy of our book signed by Wifey and I.

To be in with a chance of winning these PG Tips Premier Prizes and NCOTAASD goodies, just answer these two simple questions by logging in to our mailing list page:

Jaffa Judgement

A NiceCupOfTeaAndASitDown special report

It’s been a good while since we did a big in depth multi-review of a complete genre of tea time accompaniments. Actually we’ve only done one so far, the Fig Fest, and that was years ago wasn’t it? So with all that’s been happening in the Jaffa Cake arena over the last few months we thought that our long overdue Jaffa Judgement should get the green light.
We’ll be taking a look at these new developments and also looking at possible Jaffa futures in this growing sector of hot beverage accompanying snacks. We might also tackle a few old chestnuts to ease the load on our in box as people will no doubt feel the need to tell us the difference between cakes and biscuits again.

Biscuit City

A NiceCupOfTeaAndASitDown special report

Here at NCOTAASD we have had an unprecedented response to the building of the Biscuit City in Selfridges basement which we reported on back in January. So fervent has the interest been that we felt we had no other choice than to personally investigate.

So whilst only halfway through her 11am mug of tea and second fig roll, I whisked Wifey down to the station and bundled her on the next train to London, with instructions to get to the bottom of it all. You can read Wifey's special report here.
