Firstly, must just note that I love, love, love this expression (storm in a tea cup).
Secondly, must record importance of a tea room to the inmates of an office. And the bizarre politics that ensue:
YARNALOT (sneaks up to desk, looking furtive): Gosh they have a lot of morning teas over there…
HAYGIRL: Yes, agreed.
YARNALOT (hushed tone): Like everyday…
HAYGIRL: Again, agreed.
YARNALOT (even more hushed tone): And they never invite us.
Adding to the mix – the fact that the HayOffice actually has no tea room. So Colleagues (Esteemed and Otherwise) must crowd around single desk to break bread. Very awkward.
Recipe for disaster, forgive the pun.
All for now,
HG
