1. Fill with water, turn kettle on. 2. Put sugar (2-3 spoons, personally) in, pop teabag in mug/cup. 3. Once Water is boiled, pour until aproppiate amount in cup (4/5's for me) 4. Stir the Teabag around the water to let the tea filter through. Squeeze on side of mug to get the extra little bit out, then dispose. (flinging it out of a nearby open window while shouting 'God Save the Queen!' is optional) 5. Add milk. 6. Stir! Tap teaspoon on side of mug for good luck (or just to get rid of the droplets of tea on it) and dispose (in sink, maybe not out of the window too. You might hit the poor sod that had a sopping teabag land on their head as they were walking past your kitchen window) 7. Enjoy! British phrases and conversation is optional too but highly reccomended while drinking.
^ That is how I make tea. Listen and learn. xD
Admittedly, that is a fabulous analogy. And so true to my life for the past four years. Dx YOU LOT ARE EVERYWHERE.
