It's a tea cosy—a cover, generally knitted, yo put over a tea pot to keep it warm. Ferret's a serious tea drinker and should have a few.

Mick, my little brother and I both drink it constantly. Probably 10 cups a day. Heck I had 5 last night between 7:30 and 11:00. Teabags come 104 to a box. There are 6 boxes in my pantry for backup to the large bowl of them on the kitchen counter. My wife is also a tea drinker but only about 4 cups a day. We go thru tea bags pretty quickly. Rolleyes

Ferret, up in Yorkshire, north UK, they have big teapots filled with proper tea leafs and they leave in stewing on cookers all day, it's so strong you could stand your spoon up in it.
Me , tea bags please. I thought most people in the US were coffee drinkers.
Funny thing my mates and I plan our little trips on tea stops and toilets....

Lol most people in the US are coffee drinkers. I have never cared for the taste of coffee. To me it's bitter.

My grandmother on my mothers side was Welsh. She taught us to drink tea with creme and sugar as wee lads. To me there is nothing better than the taste of a good cup of tea. Love it, LOVE IT! First thing in the morning, last thing at night, every day.
