I found this article in TEA AND COFFEE ASIA magazine. . .
Mourners empty reservoir. July 08
In a scenario any Irish novelist might have dreamt up, tea-drinking mourners at three separate wake houses in a Donegal town recently drained the local reservoir dry.According to Donegal County Councilor, Tony McDaid, council staff couldn't work out how the reservoir serving the St. Johnston area had suddenly run out of supply. He said it later emerged the three wakes in the locality had caused the problems."There were three large wakes at the same time," he said. "With people making so much tea over the weekend, they actually emptied the reservoir."
Ireland does drink more tea per capita than any other country in the world so I really want to believe it.
