A cup of tea or the Queens speech?
« on: May 20, 2007, 05:14:46 pm »

If forced to choose, we Brits would take a warm cup of tea over the Queen's Christmas speech.

That's the findings of a new survey on British traditions.


This does not surprise me at all.

If it was hot I'd have the tea, but the Quen's speech would beat warm tea.

What a silly comparison. I'm surprised this hasn't made it to the One or T'other thread!

Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

You could microwave the tea. You can't microwave the Queen's speech.

You could even make a fresh cup of tea and throw the cold one on the garden.

You could microwave the Queen's speech if you recorded it and put the video in the microwave.  I like iced tea if it's got lemon in and plenty of sweeteners.

Wouldn't do the video, or the microwave, much good.

Iced tea is nice in the USA especially when it's 110 degrees outside and 100% humidity.
