Oh no - a spat! I never make milky tea - I know exactly how much milk to put in BEFORE the tea.

Yep.. Milk after tea, for the stated reason.

I can't see much leeway for the proposed sugar amendment. We had to fight hard to get that in at all.
It may take some sort of rebelion to get that through. maybe a Declaration of some sort.

There will also need to be some sort of agreement regarding the storage of Tea when in proximity to a harbour... We all know how badly that can end up.

Mrs Nutek wants to know if Honey has entered into the discussion yet.

I couldn't drink tea for my whole first pregnancy. That first cuppa after he was born was the best cuppa I've ever had, even though it was hospital tea and came with pilchards and peaches because I was starving and had just missed tea.

I admit defeat but I will be sneaking my milk in before the tea when no one's looking. Ooo, I feel like such a rebel

Sorry but NO!

Giving birth sugared tea necessity is important.

So motion denied without said changes

Granny Nutek...

"Oh, you look hot, have a nice cup of tea"
"It's cold outside, you should have a nice cup of tea"
"That must have been a shock. lets have a cup of tea"
etc
etc.

She ALWAYS had tea. And it was always "Just boiling", whenever you arrived.

No honey in tea under any circumstances. White sugar, granulated or lumps. Honey is for crumpets and/or toast.
