At price levels of that nature, given the cost of the pantomimes of flattery in such posh places, the steak had obviously been sliced off a beast which had been tethered in an industrial unit, force fed for the minimum possible number of weeks and pumped up with the wonders of modern pharmceuticals{sic}. Perhaps, at £14. 10 for the package you might give us a rundown on what the other £13.50 was for.
Obviously a large pot of tea only requires another pint of water and an extra tea-bag. (about 4 pee I think plus washing up).
The only outlet I can see is the hole in your pocket.
Don't be silly and ignorant Spendipus, every body is aware that The Mitre
have their own organically reared cattle in the field at the back.
Then there is the tea of course 'Assan' specially blended with a young lady brewing various different types for one to sample before one makes a choice.
Served in the best china tea pot, matching cups real napkins, and live entertainment through the windows.
It must be a bugger of an existence not knowing how the other half live.
How is Lil's caravan on the A1 doing nowadays?
