I find you get a much better compression of the tea bag using a dinner fork.

However my colleagues look at me strangely. I even had to explain stiring with a fork still mixes the milk in, as one protested the gaps in the fork won't give as good a mix.

Fair play if you have sugar though, a spoon may be the weapon of choice.

Surely i'm not alone here?

I can only assume you're one of those Johnny Foreigner types! Of course it has to be a spoon.
:p
 
I've never heard of anyone using a fork before unless they're using the handle end due to a lack of spoons.
 
I use a spoon but, when the spoons run out, I've tried fork. It's actually better, but feels a little deviant so I tend to leave it in the hutch - my little secret.
