An afternoon tea should consist of: 

• 2 cups of tea (minimum)

• Sandwiches using white bread (meat only, no salad, crusts preferred)

• A CORNISH scone (pronounced scone not scon) 

• An assortment of pastries (ideally choux)

• Biscuits (Nice, Fig Rolls or Garibaldi) 

• A hand-made Gingerbread Man

• A packet of original iced gems (not the white only nonsense!)

• A drumstick lolly (when no-one is looking)
