Number 22 – They make time for tea

The whole basis of this argument is that the British take up to an hour for a tea-break, again, I'm happy to say that this is not the case. As a nation we take less breaks that the rest of Europe, and also work longer hours than the Americans (UK=44.4 hours USA=40 hours). Just to clarify, we have lunch-breaks not tea-breaks. Also Mr Grasse to say that because of this “ritual” (I think you'll find it's the Japanese who have a tea ritual) we wouldn't be carrying an extra fifteen pounds around our waistline is stupid, after all, which nation is the fattest? That's right, the USA wins again.
Just a couple more points you ignoramus, scones do not get dipped into tea as they are cakes, and cookies is an American word, the proper word is biscuit. Fool.
