@cwebber There should be an Earl They so we can grasp all of the (classical) pronoun-users

@cwebber Lady Grey was the Earl's wife who where both involved with India and the tea that came over in all sorts of dastardly ways.

@cwebber i like lady grey for the uncommon word 'Schmuckdroge' which translates to decorative drug.
https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Grey_(Tee)
the english wikipedia page describes it more simply, therefore freely translated:
'The cornflower is used as a decorative drug, i.e. a filler that gives the tea blend a more appealing appearance through its shape and color.'
