Turning Fish & Chips into tea? Man, I thought Jesus was cool when he turned water into wine.
Nahh, Pizza and beer is better.

England is a strange place where breakfast is breakfast, lunch can be dinner and dinner can be tea.
Then what else can tea be? A wedding reception?Quote:

depends on whether you have afternoon tea for your wedding reception.
Afternoon tea is a drink of tea with a plethoro of biscuits (cookies to you freaks) and cakes, traditionally scones and cream.
Lucky bugger - I get to go and have tea at my mother-in-law's house.Quote:

Which isn't as bad as it sounds, but I'd rather be out on the lash.

Although there is an art to dunking, certain biscuits just won't do. Anything too crumbly and you run the risk of a rogue piece of biscuit breaking away that will sink to the bottom if your not quick with the spoon.
Dunking is for gentlemen, but consuming the last dregs of a cup of tea thats been used for dunking is for scumbags.
I know what a biscuit is, it's not like I'm from Arkansas.Quote:

I just had Spaghetti Bolognese for my evening meal... darned people born within a certain area in London (traditionally within earshot of the bo bells)
and now I'm going out on for some alcholic beverages
bolognese with regular spaghetti is vile. have some decency, use penne.
You can pretty it up anyway you like, but dunking is for road navvies, on their sixth tea break of the day, while they dig up the same gas line for the fifteenth time that calendar year.Quote:

you'd be amazed at how much I'm approached by pucker pro wannabes. you'd qualify easily as a champion pucker.
I prefer the title, "king pucker" ;)
HAHAHAHA!
sounds like a deal, King Pucker.
Where I live in Australia (we are easily infulenced) we use all the names. Breakfast, Brunch/Morning Tea, Lunch and Dinner/Tea/Supper. Oh and desert ;).
I have a theory about desert actualy. It dosn't go into the same part of your stomach as normal food. It goes into what I call your 'reserve'. So basically now matter how much you eat you ALWAYS have room for desert.
mmm, chicken kebab.

well here in norway we have breakfast (does anyone know this means break fast, which is from muslim religion in the holy month of ramadan where they fast?) lunch and dinner. dinner here is around 4 or 5, 8 in the weekends, but still the norwegian word for dinner is midday...
and remember, we're soon to see the coffee shop event horizon (if uve read Duglas Adams books):D
