There's Always Time for Tea

By Chris Marsh


Tea is undoubtedly routed deep in British history and culture. It was first introduced to Britain in the 17th century by the East India Tea Company and has remained in our hearts ever since. In fact, recent reports show that a whopping 165 million cups of tea are drank daily upon our shores.

During the 19th century, tea consumption in Britain increased dramatically. According to the history books, this was down to the spawning of a tradition that was soon to become as popular as the humble cup o' tea. Anna Russell, the Duchess of Bedford, introduced the curious tradition of afternoon tea due to a regular feeling of fatigue. In this era, people generally only ate two meals a day and so the Duchess was left feeling lethargic and as such took to requesting sandwiches, cakes and tea in the mid-afternoon; a trend that soon cottoned on.

Afternoon tea traditionally begins with something savoury, such as sandwiches, followed by scones accompanied with jam and cream, and then a selection of cakes. These delectable are spread over luxurious three tier stands and supped down with lavish cups of exquisite teas. This tradition has proved as resilient as the beverage itself, with its longevity not purely down to the food.

There are currently approximately 1500 different teas available to purchase within the UK, each with their own unique style, taste and colour. Earl Grey, Assam Black, Ceylon / Srilanken Black, Darjeeling and Chamomile are amongst the most favourable flavours.

In 1717 came Thomas Twining's introduction of tea houses for ladies. This came shortly after the East India Tea Company had initially spawned the concept of drinking tea. Since then, and to this day, tea houses and restaurants throughout Great Britain and much of the world have strived to deliver the perfect afternoon tea. Private Members' Club, Home House, situated in Portman Square, London, serve a truly delicious afternoon tea, against a backdrop of pure Georgian charm at Number 20. Home House is definitely worth a visit for afternoon tea, not just for a 'cuppa' but for the glorious neo-classical staircase showcasing the best of imperial Britain. It is one of the most opulent entrances in British architecture and is the perfect setting for the quintessentially British afternoon tea.

European City Breaks in Berlin

By Steve Alexander


Popular for its eclectic blend of deep set twentieth century history, German traditions and buzzing nightlife, one of the most popular city break destinations is Berlin. The city has blossomed into a capital of cool, more than twenty years after the fall of the Berlin wall, with a range of museums, galleries, opera and fashion to rival any of its European sisters.

An obvious element of British tourists travelling to Germany is the legacy of the first and second world wars, and a two night trip is plenty long enough for seeing this part of our own history from the other side. The Holocaust Memorial, for instance, is a must-see sight, and a sobering experience in a city that now flourishes.

So too, sights such as the Reichstag, the Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie and the last remnants of the Berlin wall turn the city into a history book, with landmarks and stories around every corner. Public transport in Berlin is fantastic, making it easy to hop between destinations, while it is also easy to whizz around by bicycle, taking in the city scenery as you go.

With locals and tourists gathering together in bars for evening beers, once the sun has gone down, Berlin transforms into a city of lights. Known for its huge warehouse parties that run long into the night and early hours, Berlin is one of the newest clubbing capitals of Europe - so totally perfect for a bit of a weekend party too.

There are a huge number of places to stay in Berlin, close to different parts of the action. The five star Ellington Hotel, for example, is placed well for some shopping, near to the KaDeWe department store, while the Radisson Blu is set in the historical heart of the city, opposite Museum island and on the banks of the river Spree - and only a short walk from the Brandenburg Gate, which makes navigating very easy.

Getting Ads For The Friday After Thanksgiving

By Harry Jessilliusy


The Black Friday is one of the busiest shopping days in the whole year, and with a variety of items on sale on that day, you can save a lot of money. So, to find the best bargains you have to plan in advance, which means researching where you can receive the lowest price for the things you want to buy. In this post, we will talk about how to get Black Friday ads in advance.

Enroll to receive updates from your preferred stores

In many instances, stores mail these days to a week beforehand to help shoppers come up with their unique shopping strategies, and to lure consumers to check out the store, especially in the case of doorbuster offers where products are significantly cheaper but are sold in small quantities. If you are concerned about spam, you can make a free email account specifically for your shopping ventures. There are also shops that give you the option to receive notifications through SMS, but you must take into account the cost of such.

Go to websites that aggregate Black Friday ads

Some websites make it easy for consumers to come up with a plan for their holiday shopping by monitoring ads from multiple retailers and displaying these side by side. Such sites provide adverts on various items, from Black Friday furniture to travel, jewelry, and appliances.

Check out newspapers

If you have not signed up for a subscription yet, sign up for one a bit nearer to Black Friday or during October.

Setup Google alerts

Google Alerts are email updates of the most recent relevant Google results based on the stuff you like. All you have to do is key in a search query you wish to monitor, choose how often you want to acquire notifications in a day, and whether you wish to get all results or only the best ones. If the email updates become overwhelming, narrow down the search to include which products you intend to buy, for instance, "Black Friday furniture deals 2012"if you wish to find home furnishings.

People you know

Find Sensational Architecture in Dubai

By Steve Alexander


A city is often defined by its buildings. Just think of the likes of the Coliseum, the Statue of Liberty and the Leaning Tower of Pisa. An insight into a country's vast historicism can be provided by its many hidden treasures, or, as in the case of Dubai, its future.

Architecture can be the very thing that makes a city great, and here's a look at some impressive constructions, both ancient and modern, from Dubai. There are always some great deals on all inclusive hotels, so make sure you find time to see these great sites when you visit.

Architects have got away with anything and everything until lately in Dubai. Nothing has been off-limits. Someone always provided the money, no matter how ambitious or weird the idea, and some of the most interesting buildings in the world were created. With everyone racing to outdo each other, it was like an architectural cold war was taking place.

The most defining example of Dubai's propensity for extravagant architecture is the Burj Al Arab Hotel. The building is designed as a steel exterior wrapped around a concrete tower. The most distinct feature of the hotel is that it's designed and shaped like the sail of a dhow, an Arab sailing ship; two wings create a V-shape, which form the mast. What makes it even more interesting, though, is that, during the day, a white fabric gives way to a light, milky light inside the hotel.

Other examples of conspicuous construction in Dubai include the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, at 828 metres. Indeed, its cladding also provides a unique contrast to the more conventional architecture surrounding it. Worth catching at sunrise, the rays bounce off its reflective surface. Emirates Towers are a favourite building among Dubai's architecture enthusiasts. Most notable is the way the towers' 'relationship' appears to change, depending on which angle you choose to look at them.
