I don't know if it is a slang Australian word and I don't even know how it is spelt as I have never seen it written, but I immediately thought, he is such a poonce.
ReplyDeleteVery 'refained'.
DeleteHe is a friend of Dorothy.
DeleteYes, well, there are friends of Dorothy and there are people I wouldn't piss on..........unless he begged.
DeleteHe's always pontificating about the 'correct' way to do things, smugness emanates from every pore. I also think he's laughing at us plebs who dare to stir our tea the wrong way. Who cares what he thinks anyway.
ReplyDeleteFrom now on I shall be cutting my scownes (even though it pains me to call them that), and stirring my Tea clockwise.
DeletePrat!
ReplyDeleteYup.
DeletePonce
ReplyDeleteYup.
Deletethat was a reply to Andrew by the way!
DeleteI rather liked his spelling.
DeleteHahaha, wherever did you get him from Cro? Oh my goodness, what must our American friends think of us, good thing we're not all like that. I'll carry on stirring in circles and drinking from the dreaded builder's mug thank you....
ReplyDeleteSame here. And I'll have Lemon Drizzle Cake with my PG Tips.
DeletePompous prick is the first thing that springs to mind, although I do think the Daily Fail use him as clickbait! He's got he kind of face only a mother could love (and that's pushing it)!
ReplyDeleteI hope you took notes!
DeleteI say, one shall tell one's man this instant.
ReplyDeleteDoes it apply to morning coffee too do you think?
Geeeves; one more mug of coffee for table No 5.
Deletehis head was rather too shiny for me
ReplyDeleteHis personal brow-mopper will be in trouble.
DeleteAfternoon Tea is big business down here. Melburnians just love it - and pay top dollar to take part in the charade.
ReplyDeleteMind you it is nice to have all those lovelies put in front of you and know you aren't going to be the one doing the washing up
I did have Tea at The Ritz once.... never again!
DeleteCome on, society would collapse if we didn't know the correct way to place a napkin on our lap. He's only trying to save us from ourselves. I thought he was rather a sweetie. :)
ReplyDeleteFrankly, I'm amazed I got this far in life without his help.
DeleteHahaha thanks for the laugh first thing this morning!
ReplyDeleteI hope you drank your morning Tea correctly!!!
DeleteFrom a flooded in farm in extreme Southwest Iowa in the USA - the home and deep taproot of all that is practical and 'necessary,' all I can say is, Oh My.
ReplyDeleteGlad to be of service Tim. Now go forth and drink Tea correctly (as we all will).
DeleteMy honest opinion (and first take) is that this wouldn't have been such a funny video many years ago. Etiquette was a big thing then (or so it seemed to me). Nowadays not so much. We have become a relaxed society.... which whether good or bad, I rather like.
ReplyDeleteEven today there are ways of doing certain things, but he takes it to another level. Anyway, who is he to tell us how to stir our Tea!
DeleteHe is a ghastly snob.
ReplyDeleteSpot on!
DeleteNow I shall know what to do the next time I pop into Betty's in Harrogate.
ReplyDeleteAh, Betty's. A national institution.
DeleteGee,the man is a complete egg. I drink my tea in a mug so I must be common!
ReplyDeleteJo in Auckland
As do we all, Jo.
DeleteWhile he's a good laugh, it's no worse than American women who get dressed up in 19th century dresses for "afternoon high tea: (as they call it). Even funnier are the ones who wear hats and shawls and gloves to go to "high
ReplyDeletetea".
They aren't hurting anyone, so I leave them alone
They sound a lot more fun than Mr Hanson. Maybe he could join them, and tell them where they're going wrong.
