Not your cup of tea

Hot water

Sir, – Your letter writer (November 17th) was lucky to get a cup of tea for €3.55 on the Cork to Dublin train. When I once asked for just hot water, as I had my own favourite brand of tea with me, I was told I’d have to pay the full price of a cup of tea. When I enquired why, I was told it was because they were using the same size of paper cup! – Yours, etc,
