Archived from groups: rec>pets>cats>anecdotes (more info?)

I need for someone in another country (not USA) to aid and abet me in
getting some Heath and Heather Tea, night time variety into the USA. It
seems that they have changed their packaging and it no longer meets USA
labeling criteria and they aren't very likely to go redesign it just for
us because we just aren't a big enough market for them to really care a lot.

But I love this tea. And I really want it so now I need aiding and
abetting. I am willing to pay for said product plus shipping or some
other equal exchange.

I guess Canada may be the nearest place to get it. But it comes from
Great Britain. So where ever.

Obligatory cat - whenever I sit and have a nice quiet cup of tea, Tony
sits curled up with me. He knows the signs and is ready to sit with me
when I sit down. It makes it all that much more calming.

It's produced by Ty-Phoo for the UK market, sold via Health Food
shops such as Holland and Barrett. Incidentally, it's Heath and
Heather", not "Heath and Heater" ;-)

I haven't seen the blend that Bridget needs - but I'll have a
look when I'm out shopping later.

I thought perhaps British groceries in the US might still have some
stocks of the tea. The shop near my office doesn't carry the line your
looking for, but an online shop may still have it available:

Good luck!

Yeah, I tried them specifically and they are the ones who told me what
the problem was - why I couldn't find it anywhere. But thanks.

I would really appreciate that. I love that tea. Even if you just
ordered it off the internet and then sent it to me, that would be okay
as there are places that are not for the USA. The blend of chamomile and
fruity stuff is just delectable.

http://www.rosemaryshealthfoods.co.uk/acatalog/Heath___Heather_Teas.html

If you scroll down, they have night time tea in 20 and 50 bag packages
(I would want the 50). It is exactly what I am used to getting here same
formulation and everything.

Hope this helps.

Bridget - who has this invading her dreams

Mat - if you don't find it locally, let me know, we have a Holland &
Barrett nearby and I can look there, or else I'm happy to order it off
the web and send it over to Bridget. My email addy at the top is valid
:-)

I could be in heaven. I can't wait to get my hands on some of this stuff
again. Pure ambrosia.

I really detest Holland & Barrett (snooty unpleasant people selling
overpriced and average stuff) but I could look and see what's really
in this tea. You could most likely mix it up yourself for a tenth
of the cost.
