St George's Day?
Inspired by the St Georges Day thread I thought I'd go and make a nice cup of tea. Proper builders tea mind, none of this black tea with lemon nonsense. In the interests of North/South relations I'd even make that Yorkshire tea if we had any in the canteen, but there you go.

Penguin is a good left field option. Not quite olde worlde traditional, but retro certainly. Using it as a straw is taking things to another level though, not sure I'm quite ready for that.

Or Rich Tea
Or a Bath Oliver

Mm. That said, I've a craving for Rich Tea biscuits now.
As an aside,
Back when I was at Uni and most of the spods came up with 'unique' monikers, one lad called himself "Biccies."
It was years later, long after we'd fallen out of touch, that the penny dropped as to why; his name was Richard T...
