And whether you are having a cuppa or not, we reckon you might enjoy us stirring up a few tea-based memories from the Hartlepool Mail archives.
So if you were at Cafe One77 in 2012, the Elwick Village jubilee celebrations in 2012 or the St Patrick’s summer fair also in 2012, we might have you on camera.
We have all this and more in our potted history feature.
