Give me a cup of cuppa before
I scupper your ship-shape little boat
upon the bilge-blue pirate sea,
you who I adore, or did before
you refused me my cup of cuppatee.
Serve rum to the crew, they know
no better; give juice to the butler
when he hands you my letter;
but for me, oh my love, let it be
a steaming hot cup of cuppatee.
To be continued, maybe,
After I've had a cup of tea.

I had just sat down and now I have to get up and put the kettle on. How inconvenient. Happy New Year to you

Nothing ever gets done before the kettle goes on in the morning, afternoon or evening.

Quite right too, Mr. Pimpernel. Thank heavens for the invention of the all-day kettle.

I do like a cup of tea. I drink Yorkshire tea specially blended for hard water and drunk by even harder men.

Thank goodness I have a fresh cup of tea to hand as I read this, to satisfy the craving it inspires!
