GF Tea Attendee's List-2:00 now full, 4 seats left for 3:15

[oldkicker]

I was going to do pinkie exercises in preparation for this, but then I found this article concerning tea etiquette.

My favorite...

*Don't peer over your tea cup while drinking; it looks suggestive.




Thanks, Barb.

Well now there's no excuse not to look the part - thanks for this link oldkicker even some of us Brits don't know the correct etiquette for drinking tea.

I was disappointed to hear that I shouldn't sandwich my scones together

 

[Barb]

Does this mean we can't slurp the spill over tea from the saucer????????

 

[nativetxn]

As long as you don't peer over the saucer, it will probably be alright Barb

Thanks for doing this for us. I'm really looking forward to tea

 

[Smee]

What about "peering" over our beer glass???
I sthat suggestive too?? or does it just mean "this stuff is too good to let it get away from my lips"?

 

[CathyCanada]

Thanks, Barb! Woohoo, we get Bernie and Barry, talk about double the fun!!!!!

Barb, can you PM me or email me when we hit 26 or at least by the end of the month so I can change the PS or I will be on the hook for the extra 6.

Thanks!!
CC

 

[Barb]

Sure, Cathy. I was using the 19th as the cut off. We have room for one more at the 2:00 tea and then room for 5 on the 3:15. We're filling up.

Holy Hana.... may have to witness this event... haha! Er, um... what does "tea" cost? Can you drink beer with scones?

 

[Barb]

Why, SSB, does this mean you're considering joining the group for tea?!?!
The cost of the tea is based on what you order. There is a wide variety of goodies offered, from tea sandwiches to delicious desserts.
However, I do think they might frown upon you doing a BYOB thingy at their most proper tea.

 

[vickyBaby]

Is Barry still going to make the tea? Or is SSB going to substitute for him?

 

[Barb]

As far as I know, Barry is still attending. He hasn't said anything about changing his mind. (yet)
Don't know about SSB???

No wonder I have a harem!

I thought Barry posted that he had an exam to take on his "Bad News Thread?"

[Barb]

Mmmm....that's right. I guess he won't be coming for tea now.

 

[Patinmn]

Before you give his spot away, he says he will get in the night of the 5th...tea is on the 6th. So I would double check with him.

Bruhahahaha! Barb, for real?

Hey, SSB does have a grass skirt.... would that count as "proper".... hrmmmmmm....

 

[nativetxn]

Absolutely! Just don't peer over your cup of tea

 

[Barb]

LOL SSB!! I would so wanna see you and that grass skirt at tea! ROTFL


You know, every time I read that "peer over the tea cup" thing, I keep reading it as "pee over the tea cup"!!!!! I really have to stop that!!!! When I read that for the first time, I was totally appalled until I reread it!!!!!!

Also, I'm changing Emma to the 2:00 tea, so the 2:00 seating is full! Thanks!!

 

[Patrick IL.]

SSB is doing the tea? Which one? I could consider attending if my great friend was there!
