Yeah - consuming tea with friends is said to be better than consuming
friends with tea.

Either way, I got a cute card from Christ. Thank you!

Was it the tea they were inspecting?

Australian Customs confiscated my christmas %afda tea a few years ago
(I chose not to pay the $42 to have them sterilise it and send it on)

I got yellow tape and a letter that time. Multiple other times it's
come right through however...

It wasn't Nikkita's tea. I'm sipping that now. Delicious liquorice tea!

I got green this year, you got yellow before that. My brother says "yellow"
when he picks up the phone. He says "hello" but it sounds like yellow.

Glad you liked it :-) I was a bit worried that customs would make a fuss
out of it, but than I remembered that others had sent tea with no
problem. Glad to hear that various froupies are getting it.

Fantastic. I bought small cards this year, thinking they would be
rather twee.

When I visited the post office, I was informed they were in fact
/too small/ to be posted and the machines would lose them in sorting.

So I purchased large envelopes and dropped the small cards in them.
