Brilliant! Tea all around.
I was raised a tea drinker. On my only trip to England I visited the garden of a couple in Wassail which I'd been admiring through their photos on flickr. We were emailing back and forth leading up to our visit and at one point they said they'd like to offer us some refreshment. Naturally I asked for tea in their English garden. Wow, never had such an elaborate tea. Here are some photos from back in that summer of 2008.
This one was taken by Tony and sent to me. My wife Lia on the left, our hostess Marie on the right. Me drooling on the offerings in the middle.

I took this photo of our hosts. Before dessert came out we had a meal worthy of the highest of holidays. It was a drizzly day but we heated plates, put covers over them and ate al fresco on the back porch.

The view from where we ate.

Me and the missus enjoying tea out in the gazebo. Can you tell I was in a state of bliss?
