    So, did anyone else know that a cup of tea is slang for sex?
    Not just in Thames Valley Police Authority, it seems.

    They didn't cover sex education at my school. Your (posher) school down the road must have given a more Taylored education

      Not "slang", Pulcie - "Substitute"!

          Is there a substitute for sex? (Best not answer that!)

            No, I led a sheltered life, particularly at Schola Mercatorum Scissorum, though you can imagine which syllable in the school motto (Concordia parvae res crescunt) got stressed the most!
            The use of this phrase was new to me.

              It's interesting that it's not the other way round.



              Let me rephrase that - it's interesting that "tea" is slang for "sex", but not "sex" for "tea". English Breakfast; Milk or a slice of lemon?; One lump or two?; Gee Darling; Fifty Shades of Earl Grey; allow to enthuse for at least five minutes before enjoying; do you prefer loose or in bags?

                  What on earth has happened since I've been away for the day? People are having a punch-up about Charlie Drake on the George Martin tribute thread; and now this... !

                  "...the isle is full of noises,
                  Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                  Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                  Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
