Tea is the answer.I don't care what the question is.The answer is tea.Tea.
So say we all!
So is 42 but yes tea is the answer
Sozzy Taylor I vote for Miata instead of tea.
Sozzy Taylor The answer is 42.
It's 4-tea-2.
I could listen to her talk about anything.
redmotherfive just go to the slightly more upmarket parts of England and everyone has a voice like hers
BAD, BAD BOY, MINE. I WANT, SHE MAKE MAN HAPPY, YOU MAKE MAN ANGRY I SMASH.
redmotherfive Me too. She reminds me of Diana, Princess of Wales.
You must have been joking
Nigella Lawson and Liz Hurley for me. This girl is pretty sweet also.
Tea is said 49 times in this video.
thx
I- YOU ARE A LEGEND-
Ah, a goat i see? 🐐
How did you calculate?
no way
Just looking at Kate and hearing her chirpy enthusiasm is enough to cheer me up for hours
"Sit doon, I'll put the kettle on and you can tell me aboot your week". My dear departed Scottish mum used to say that when I visited her every weekend. I miss our little tea chats every weekend now.
Hugs, so sorry for your loss.
Loved it, but since I am portuguese, of course I'm going to say that the person who introduced UK to the "tea world" was Princess Catherine of Braganza of Portugal, in 1662, and married Charles II.
This misses the big point of why Britain started drinking tea in the first place - was brought with the household of Catherine of Bragança in the 1670s as Portugal was the primary importer of Chinese tea into Europe at the time. Britain actually was on a coffee kick in the reign of Charles II, but it stirred up controversy as its properties were viewed as unhealthy by some, especially among women, so tea became an acceptable alternative with royal patronage.
Of course, its interesting to note that later on, once the East India Company became involved in the tea trade, Portugal focused its efforts on cultivating coffee in Brasil, and became the leading importer of that product instead.
Wait so why are so many British people still racist?
My father is British, my mom is Turkish so guess it how I am obsessed with tea lol.
The british went to war over tea with china called opium wars when chna refused briish opium
Thank you for this information.
I saw in a modern marvels documentary about coffee, that some of the earliest coffee shops were indeed in London. This information, and of course, early colonial economics, does explain a lot for why tea over coffee; even if the British did have an early taste in coffee.
I'm American, but have always been a tea person. When a young adult I stayed away from coffee since I saw so many older men addicted to it. Men who would walk around all day on the job with a cup of coffee in one hand! So, I stuck to green tea for the health benefits. In my late 50's now, I'm glad I made that decision when young.
Nice vocabulary
That was written seven years ago, in 2017...
Being that 1% of brits who doesnt like tea and feeling like the queen will be ready to deport you as soon as she finds out😁😁
emily fellows I can imagine it being like the monsters Inc scene.
WE'VE GOT A 2319!
Believe me my friend, i'm terrified of that happening to me everyday!
One is not amused!
emily fellows you're not alone :)
I also hate Tea.... Not very nice. Nettle Tea is surprisingly okay though
I just found the channel, absolutely love it big thumbs up from America!
Just found it today. Also living in the USA.
so did i ... its great !
Me as well, will subscribe! Hello from Missouri :)
I love that the English Army puts tea making equipment in their tanks. "Nigel, load in another HEAT round, and pass me up some tea will you old boy."
went on training exercises with the British army, learned two things, the brits eat meals on white tablecloths.(even in the field) and dont plan on getting anything done during tea time.
MrAbletospeak
There isn't? Then whose driving the English tanks?
Literally true
MrAbletospeak No, it is the British Army. Get it right filthy colonial
MrAbletospeak They can join the british army too
I'm Brazilian and I LOOOOOOVE tea. I'm acctually making a cup for me right now
Hannah Bandenberger Cabral I'm Venezuelan and I'm actually doing the same thing. Cheers neighbor =)
alexdven Cheers ! :D
I'm Italian and I LOVE IT SO MUCH
even though I am British, I feel like I learn so much from these videos 😂
My father is British, my mom is Turkish so guess it how I am obsessed with tea lol.
It's funny how Brits are famously tea drinkers, where it's never associated with Ireland by foreigners. It's actually bigger in Ireland than Britain. Ireland consume the third most tea per capita in the World. The UK is 5th.
sahotaquack1 Ireland is a major country. Nearly every American claim to be Irish. St Patrick's Day is celebrated world wide even though it's an Irish holiday.
It is a religious festival celebrating the patron saint of IRELAND, yet it is celebrated all over the world! People don't celebrate St Georges Day outside the countries he is a patron saint of. It's become way more a celebration of Ireland than a religious celebration since people who don't believe in God still celebrate it. Nearly every American I meet claims to be Irish. Ireland is a well known nation. The reason it is not known for tea is not because "people only focus on the major countries", because it is known for other things like drinking and potatoes. The reason it is not known for tea is unknown.
***** I got to say celebrating St. Patrick's Day in the U.S. is a bad example. A lot of people celebrate Cino de Mayo and most of them are not Mexican. In both cases it is more of an excuse to get drunk.
brandchan That's my point. Mexican and Irish holidays are celebrated outside those nations because they are major, well known nations.
sahotaquack1 Likewise, people don't only focus on "major nations" when talking about stereotypes, as you said. Why would they do that? They stereotype anywhere that is well known, which is totally what you meant anyway.
I heard Americans can throw a good tea party in Boston ;3
...too soon
+blahlbinoa that's why tea is not drunk here as much no taxation with out representation , some times wonder if it was not a mistake o well let me go get my cup of coffee : )
+blahlbinoa and end up having Washington DC and the White House burnt to the ground 41 years later. Ironically, that's how long the UK have stayed in the EU before they've mucked it up so much that we've decided to leave.
That goes to show you of what happens when you mess with a british person's tea. And they never forget it!
I was going to be made at you till I read the hole thing ha ha very good ( just don't misss with my coffee ) : )
Hahahaha!
Excuse me but Queen Catherine of Braganza and King Charles II were responsible for introducing the custom of drinking tea to the British court, which was common among the Portuguese nobility.
True!!
Spot on!
Let me add that among the many items of her dowry was the city of Mumbai which opened doors for the British into India.
dont say that, it will diminish the british self, that a "small" (well is bigger than netherlands,belgium, denmark,..) country could had influenced a ex-major power nation, the rule here is that only british can diminish other nations merits by never showing or mentioning those, typical from the british, the untrust ally.
Exactly!
My parents took over the tea drinking habits of some English friends. It was a great way to cut back on sugar consumption for the children. So I'm used to drinking tea with a pinch of milk. My favorite tea is Earl Grey or any smokey tea
I'm going to move to England for a year in August and I've been preparing myself for the tea-loving nation. I started drinking tea three years ago so that I could learn to like it and it was a succes, I love tea! I'm ready to be a proper Brit and drink all the tea I can find 😄.
N00RA96 If you moved to England without drinking tea, you wont exactly be shot.
N00RA96 better start eating Soreen if you want to be a proper Brit.
+Matthew Mitchell yes you will.
N00RA96 Ahh but do you drink it like the Brits? With milk and sugar and a biscuit to dunk into it?
N00RA96 Now go on a diet of Bovril and haggis.
I am living in London for 8 months now and I have been following this channel. Loving it! The problem is you dont have enough videos, pleaaaase make more!
I’m American and am drinking tea right now because it’s supposed to help with a cold. It’s not too shabby with sweetener and lemon. I may have to make this a new habit. ☕️
We have so much tea because we invaded a load of countries
TheSpaceTiger We invaded so many countries because we needed something to do between each cup of tea ;)
***** No, we told everyone who wasn't white that they're savage despite their long civilised cultures we tore apart and ruined and made worse and committed genocide once in a while.
TheSpaceTiger I am pretty sure we enslaved other white people, especially the Irish and French colonials in America.
It's ironic that people bring up black slavery during the colonial times as if it was the only time in history that it happened.
Almost all slaves were white until the colonisation of Africa and America.
The Romans enslaved Europe but no one talks about it as if it was bad.
***** Well said, Saul, the truth is refreshing to hear in these days of lies and anti white racist haters.
TheSpaceTiger Yes, wouldn 't India, for example, be so much better off if that awful General Sir Charles Napier hadn't ended the charming practice of the sati? "You say it is your custom to burn widows. We also have a custom to hang men who burn women. Let us each act according to custom. You build your funeral pyre, and we'll build our gallows." The British Empire fulfilled the role of the much earlier Roman Empire in being the purveyor of cultural capital which brought the trappings of modern civilization to underdeveloped parts of the world. In the post-colonial world of the latter half of the 20th Century, those former colonies which have retained the British cultural capital model have in the main done well, those who rejected it have celebrated their independence with crumbling infrastructure, poverty, political instability, renewal of old tribal animosities, and a lot of wholesale slaughter. Here's one former colonial who gives 2, perhaps 2 1/2 cheers to Empire, pukka sahib elitism, Kipling, Rhodes, and all.
she is so cute :-) BTW.. Brits must thank India & China for all the tea that grew in the Victorian times.
Love from India
thanks India and China
@@kingopringo531 LoL
well, yes sush, but a lot were planted by the "goura", due to demand. colonialism was mainly fiscal. most of the superiority stuff was bollocks. they all had "stakes". ( kipling's motives are under review, just now.) my thoughts are not preditermined, btw.
To be fair they should be thanking the silk road traders, it the only reason it even came to the Brits in the first place. They got a liking to it so much they felt the need to colonise.
Murica! @@Kyle_Hubbard
Stop being so cute, dammit!
Yeah, you...you cute Brit!
No offense but Kate's makeup seem rather excessive here. It seems she is doing a photoshoot for a cosmetic ad or something.
Stripper licker?? Quite an unusual username old chap 😂
I'm not sure which meaning you are using (I suspect the US one).
Cuteness, in British usage, is a property possessed by kittens, very small children, and similar: "Aw, isn't that cute!". I am increasingly becoming aware that in US usage, although the kitten-type meaning is known, the word cute more often implies some (usually female) attractiveness - a cute girl (or boy) could be more than just pretty, she could be sexy (though in a harmless way). A Brit would be unlikely to describe a girl as cute, unless meaning childlike.
One thing to note is that Britain essentially went to war with China over tea in the Opium War.
LedAvalon,
And even Americans new it would hit just the right nerve if we made an oceanfull batch of saltwater tea- an insulting disgrace to their leaf soaked water.
Trade debts are...weird
Basically Britain bought a metric fck ton of tea from China as they had a monopoly on tea at the time.
However Britain didn't exactly have a wealth of trade goods for said tea at the time. What they did have however was Opium a lot of Opium
@@dylanc.1765 British history is patently apalng
Warmngrng for opium - the briish should be ashamdof themselves
Tea is life
AzDaz222 Tea is love
I absolutely adore that hair!
This was lovely, thank you. This cleared up a few misconceptions I had regarding afternoon tea.
I love your videos so much! All of them are interesting and informative!
The tea bag was actually an accidental invention; the man selling the tea made them so he could weigh them out more easily and the buyers assumed they should keep them in the bags when they made a cup.
Damn it, is 2 am now but I suddenly want a cup of tea 😮
My mother, aunts and uncles were tea drinkers which was rare for Americans of that generation. Their dad was a factory worker in Manhattan. Many of his co-workers were Irish, and of course tea drinkers. He got the tea habit from them and passed it on to his children. I never acquired a taste for tea and am a coffee drinker.
Woohoo! So glad to see the subject of tea covered here at Anglophenia. Great history lesson. I look forward to hearing a Brit discourse on how to make a proper cup.
When I first moved to England, I went to a new friend's house and she asked me if I wanted a "cuppa". I asked her, "A cup of what? Coke would be nice if you have it." She laughed and explained what "cuppa" meant. I felt like and idiot and responded with, "Well, Coke or tea is fine with me. I drink both." We just had a good laugh over it.
Coffee is good, but tea will always win out!
The Toria Show not for me!
Hate coffee
*Disappointed italian noises*
I would disagree with you.... but I’m Chinese and love oolong. And then comes milk tea.
I prefer coffee. (Instant, not fancy.)
I've genuinely been wondering this my entire life, so thank you.
I love your channel enormously! Just as much as i love tea! Wish there were more videos. Good luck with that. And thank you.
I'm so obsessed with my tea addiction
Tea drinking game: One sip every time Kate blinks!
(Good luck!)
Love these videos!!!!
I chose to give a report about tea culture in the UK in my English class, this video is so helpful!!!
What a wonderful and quick lesson on tea! Very nicely done! I've had the privilege of having Afternoon Tea at the Ritz, in London. It was awesome! I had no idea that all the food would be served. We had made arrangements to meet friends for dinner. We ended up not eating dinner, because we were served so much food at our Tea.
Afternoon tea and chockie bickies is the most civilised habit on the planet.
great episode!
Was brought to Britain by Catarina de Braganca (Infanta of Portugal and Queen of England,Scotland and Ireland).
Tea was offered by the chinese the portuguese Catherine of Braganza who also brought good manners and an empire to Britain.
Tea was part of the nobles in Portugal and eventually imported to Europe as it was seen as educated and posh way to act.
Tea>coffee
At 2:23 she says we have "afternoon tea at 4pm, with finger sandwiches, scones and pastries, and homemade cakes"... What mythical twaddle.
Where's she living, in Wonderland with Alice?
The reality is, 'afternoon tea' is widely known as 'tea' (hence 'teatime') and not done exclusively at 4pm. (I've also read in a British Guide for US Americans that everyone stops for tea at 4pm!)
'Teatime' is the period roughly between 3pm and 6pm, and anything is eaten.
Whether its a small dinner (after coming home from school), or at work it's a 'tea break' - it's snacks (like a chocolate bar, or a biscuit, or crisps - with any drink), or it's your early evening dinner (which in the north of England is also called 'tea').
:-)
geography27 Afternoon tea is a snack for posh people. Tea is the evening meal for the working class. Finish watching the video.
cjmillsnun I wouldn't call myself working class but I think I use use tea to mean dinner about 50% of the time
I'm English, follow the myth if you want to. But hey, a myth is someone else's truth, and vice versa.
No, Afternoon Tea is normally a bit of a treat (see last of the summer wine though), but afternoon bingo sessions will normally have tea at 2pm or 3pm). Teatime (5pm) is for after-school when Blue Peter used to be on the telly, finish in time for Captain Pugwash.
This was such a fun episode! :D
Love this channel....
We're not really obsessed, we just go along with it
yeah😂😂
Did you know that British tanks are the best? Why? Because there is always a tea kettle with hotplate on board to make tea.
Indeed. You can't expect their boys to animate the bad guys without tea.
30th episode! Good job! I love this show
Omg I love these videos!!!!
A whole video on how to make a cup of tea? Put bag in cup, add hot water, take bag out of cup, add milk and/or sugar to taste, stir. I suppose you could fill the rest of the video with waiting for the kettle to boil.
Andrew Morris No, no! There are rules on how to brew tea if you want to get the ultimate flavor. Here's a short rundown:
1. Use a teapot. The flavor will almost always be better.
2. Use 1 tsp of tea (or one bag) per person plus one for the pot.
3. Before you put the tea in, the first thing you need to do is heat the pot. This can either be done in the oven or by pouring boiling water in the pot and letting it sit, preferably with a tea cosy to keep it hotter.
4. For the water you're going to make tea with, pour cold (not hot) water into the kettle and then heat it.
5. Right before the kettle boils, pour out the water you were using to heat the pot and scoop in the tea. When the water is at a full roiling boil (100C for preference for black tea, 90C for green, which isn't always possible if you're at high elevation), pour over the leaves. Immediately put the top on your teapot and put the cosy on. Steep for 3-5 minutes before pouring. If you use leaves loose, they stay in the pot. If in an infuser of some sort, you can optionally remove; likewise for bags.
6. According to superstition, it's unlucky in some cases to brew tea too weak, so too many leaves is better than too few. (This is probably related to wealth.)
7. If using milk, pour the milk in your cup first. This is because for a while very delicate China cups were popular, and pouring too-hot water in them would break them, and milk cools the tea. But some people say this improves the taste.
8. If stirring, such as if you use sugar, try not to bang the edges of your cup with the spoon.
9. When serving tea for multiple people, "mother" pours. Either a mother figure or the female hostess. If no such person is available, someone "plays/will be mother."
And oh, there are so many more things I could add. The point is, tea can get very complicated!
Puzzle Girl Ah, but she didn't mention anything about ultimate flavour, she said 'a nice cuppa the British way'. Very few British people would do all that to get tea. They've had to make faster boiling kettles because we need tea in a hurry.
Also need that putting milk in before taking out the tea bag is an offence punishable by hanging
☺☺
Andrew Morris Sigh. 'Tis true, alas. Well, I know some English people who will still make a pot, especially to go with breakfast, but they do usually use tea bags, and most of them are older in any case. (I'm American and currently live in the US, but lately lived in the UK for five years.)
Flappy Paddle Oddly, I recently read a study about a British experimental group who decided to brew the perfect cup of tea, and they decided the flavor was best if you added the milk one minute into the brewing time!
At least that's better than drinking it while the teabag is still in the cup. *Shudder.*
She's so beautiful. 😊
I love this channel! It's so informative for an American like me! So to celebrate my enjoyment of this channel, I'll leave you with this, spoken like a good'ol American:
Ahem,
This channel is the shiz! The hosts are straight up bomb-diggity, and I thoroughly enjoy learning about your chill country slang words. Stay cool!
Kiss, kiss!
This is so funny :D I am following your ecoboost channel for a long time now. I am going to England for a year this summer and wanted to watch some videos about common food etc ...and then I see YOU :D This is pretty cool ;) Love your work on both channels btw
The American way of making tea:
1.) Microwave water and place tea bag in cup
2.) Make in large amounts and mix with an equal amount of syrup, place into aluminum cans and sell and gas stations for 99 cents each.
Sounds more like the Southern way to make tea. In the Heartland USA you will never find a good sweet tea. That be lemonade country. North East uses a tea pot, and your South-westerners like to make sun tea
The microwave thing is because kettles (I've seen an American refer to one as an "electric water heater") are rare in USA (not entirely because of the different voltage, though that's a contributory factor).
I don't understand how people can be not obsessed with tea, heretics.
@b ray Ewwww!
Ooor, try tea with milk and sugar! (Or honey, your preference really) It is delicious.
amazing!!!! Thank you
Love star bucks americano coffee when i m on the move , but will always resort to tea when at home relaxing or watching the telly. Its gentle on the soul.
Britain has a great influence on my home country, Iraq. so the late after noon tea and snacks is widely omen meal there
I drink tea the American way. Instead of hot tea poured from a teapot, I just grab a nice cold bottle of Snapple Iced Tea from the fridge and instead of having biscuits, I scarf down a big, fat, greasy cheeseburger all in one gulp and all in one bite ending in one huge burp just at the stroke of midnight.
nice video !!! i love it
Watching this while enjoying a nice cup of tea :D !
I'm Pakistani and my favourite time of the week is Sunday evening when I get to have TeaTime with family & watch my favourite tv programs with them =)
I drink 1/2 gallon of earl grey because of the nice side effects.
+anglophenia , couldnt listen to a word u said the first time , was just looking at you :P second time , boy is it informative . good job . .
I love the emotions in every words
Where's Siobhan Thompson? I miss her! She's just charm in a bottle!

I think most Americans are aware of the practice of smuggling tea to get around the East India Company monopoly.
That small part of history is where Stash Tea took their name.
But I'm not sure throwing it in the Hudson (no matter how HOT climate change!) is the proper choice for brew
Kate, you are simply wonderful.
The UK's love of tea is why the American South is known for iced tea. When the settlers came from the UK and settled in the American South, they soon found out that the extremely warm climate was not conducive to drinking hot tea, so they started putting ice in it.
why we love tea? because we are given it as young as possible. you usually start drinking it by the age of 2. in other words, as long as you remember. it's as normal as watching tv or bathing. it's just something that would be weird not to do.
i have found that brits who don't like tea are often from families who also don't like tea and so on through the generations. since their parents didn't like it, they weren't given it. if you don't grow up drinking it you are less likely to like it. as is the case with one of my friends.
using this information you can actualy direct your children to eat healthy and avoid junk food. ;)
WHAT?? what about that the person who introduce tea to the british and was the first one to drink it at 17:00pm in england was a portuguese queen? How did u not mention that?
Such an interesting video. I’ve always been a tea drinker myself and have managed to convert my family to tea from coffee.
I could sit here all day watching her makes me feel very dreamy.
As a scandinavian. I would rather die than give up my extra strong coffee.
As a Canadian I second that!
I'm American, but I grew up overseas. I love both. Most moringngs, I have coffee, but right now I could murder a cuppa.
Can be arranged
Both are best strong, and teeine and coffeine is actually similar. I go with both.
I would try to hold off from coffee for two days before drinking again. Can't let the body get too used to it.
What are the most common tea biscuits that are eaten by Brits?
+Charles Wagner mc vities
+Charles Wagner any biscuits go well with tea, but imo, you can't beat a custard creme or bourbon.
+Grigeral Bourbon creams with a cup of tea? Are you mad? Bourbon creams should be eaten with a pint of milk! As for custard creams, they should be firmly dunked in a nice cup of coffee.
To answer the original question, "rich tea" biscuits are the common biscuit to eat with a proper cuppa. But we also like our scones with butter and jam, crumpets, or even a nice slice of Victoria sponge cake.
SongDesire Don't knock it 'till you've tried it!
Im not saying I do not like Bourbon creams, just saying that by dunking them in tea or coffee ruins them. They are much nicer if they are only dunked into cold milk.
I'm such a British at heart sometimes. :) I love tea!
I'm a Brit watching this in the UK with my cuppa. Great video and I now know why the folk in the North of England refer to dinner (evening meal) as "tea".
Literally drinking tea while watching this lol..and I hate stereotypes XD
lol i'm drinking tea too, cheers rachelle xxxxx
haha one of the only British stereotypes that are true to me is drinking tea religiously lol
Rachelle Tregear I dunk McVities too lol xx
I'm seriously drinking tea again right now
Rachelle Tregear
lol ffs, now I have to go put the kettle on to catch up
What are the most common tea brands that are drunk by Brits?
PG tips uuuuh just saying it gives me shivers.
+Charles Wagner Earl Grey. Pronounced 'Eahhl Gray.'
+Charles Wagner Tetley is the most popular, followed by PG Tips. For me, Tetley is nectar!
However, 'tea aficionados' will curl their lip at these teas, as they prefer to drink teas which taste like soapy dishwater/pot pourri/bouquet garni etc.
Pepperstm Tetley is from Yorkshire! But, 'Yorkshire Tea' is ok too, if there's no Tetley. As for the fruit concoctions - ghastly! x
graceygrumble Tetley was from Yorkshire for a short period, but it's actually a London brand. Yorkshire is Taylor's. The only true tea.
I do love a good cuppa and confess to being a bit tea obsessed. I was once called a 'Tea Jenny' by a Scottish woman, a term which is used to describe someone that drinks a lot of tea.
I had a delicious, refreshing cuppa yesterday while working in Chiswick. It's called Birchall English Breakfast Tea. Try it if you can find it. I've added it to my list of favourites. My other faves are Yorkshire Gold and M&S Luxury Gold.
Keep sipping! 😁👍
i like her voice... very clear and upbeat...
What, no mention of tea-bagging? (>_
When my older brother was 5, apparently he had a massive gash across his arm and he walked up to my parents covered in blood and said "cup of tea make it better?"
When I was in Britain for a week, I had tea every day, and I loved it.
i love the humor in these clips....humour?.... when you make it funny.
Doc Brown tea rap - watch it now!
***** Professor Elemental - Cup of brown joy, watch that next.
Maxx B Best one!
Tea originated in China. It's just one of many popular "British things" that aren't actually British. Polo originated in Central Asia. Pubs are a Roman invention, and Fish and Chips originated in Spain and Portugal. I could go on and on, but this is Anglophenia afterall.
Rayve Napsu This channel isn't celebrating things invented by Britain, it is merely exploring modern British life and shareing it with the world.
Rayve Napsu Actually Most of the tea we consume (black tea - Not including green tea) is Indian, not Chinese. However, many green teas that us Brits drink are infact chinese. But hold on: let me just say, Fish and chips is more recently said to have originated from Belgium as oppose to Spain and Portugal. Also Like Richard said, This channel doesn't claim these things to be British it is merely exploiting modern British culture.
+The 21st Pilot and Indian tea was stolen tea from China by Robert Fortune. that was how tea was 1st made in india. high quality earl grey and english breakfast uses keemun tea from china.
Watching this with a cup of tea at 4 o'clock.
Anglophenia please COME BACK!!!!
I wish everybody would learn how to speak with such enthusiasm and proper English like yourself :-)
LOL.
unfortunately what she said isnt true.
British accent
I like my tea green. Hue. Chinese tea best tea.
watching this while enjoying my coffee^^ I'm such a rebel :D
i find it weird when the tea bag has a string on it though!! That only happens when you get the individual sachet tea in foyers and places like that. Plus, if anyone in American movies ever drink tea they leave the bag which is even weirder! You're supposed to stir it around a but then take the bag out
Anyone else proper gasping? I'll get a brew on, help yourself to honobs; I'll be mother.
Also, do you dunk, or are you a nibbler?
Tea is good.
Totally made a cup of tea while watching thjs
merci le sang pour la vidéo
