The British Tag

I've seen the British Tag be done a few times on YouTube and I love seeing all the different answers that people give. British people have such strong opinions on tea that you've just got to laugh! Being British I feel like I qualify for this little tag, so here goes... 

What is your cup of tea??

1. How many cups of tea do you have day and how many sugars?

It depends how lazy I'm feeling that day. If I'm extra lazy I won't have any tea unless someone offers to make me one. But on a good day I could probably have like 4 cups. I have a full cupboard just for all my mugs and cups, it drives my family mad. I'm just a sucker for a cute mug! I love hang tea in the morning, it just has to be done. 
At home i have half a sugar as we have that 'Half Spoon Sugar' so you just use half your normal amount. Then if its normal sugar id have 1 spoon. But if its like a takeaway  tea like from McDonalds or Costa then i have to put like 4 of those little sachet things in or it is just gross.

2. Favourite part of a roast?

I don't really like roast dinners. As for meat I only eat chicken, so on my plate I'd just have some chicken and a million potatoes and gravy. That's as far as my roast dinners go, if you could even call them that.

3. Favourite dunking biscuit?

I do love a good biscuit! I'd say digestives are my favourite but I mean if we're out of digestives I'd happily settle for a Jam Cream, Vienesse Finger or a Custard Cream! 

4. Favourite quintessentially British pass time? 

I'd have to say it is probably watching Eastenders LOL 

5. Favourite word?

It's not really a word it's more of a saying but I literally say "bare with, bare with" ALL the time now because of watching Miranda haha! Actually a word I say a lot is 

6. Cockney rhyming slang?

This is such a London thing I love it. I know loads! Boat race=face, jam jar=car, apples and pears=stairs, whistle and flute=suit, trouble and strife=wife, dog and bone=phone, jack jones=alone.

7. Favourite sweet?

I don't really like sweets but I'd probably say fruitellas if anything!

8. What would your pub be called?

That's a tricky one. Maybe, The Black Pearl! I know that's not really British, it's more just because of Pirates of the Caribbean! I don't think I'd be a very good pub owner I'd be better with a tea shop so everyone could come in have a cute little tea party like Alice in Wonderland. I could have a magical pub maybe, that would be fun!

9. No.1 British person?

It's definitely JK Rowling. I mea who doesn't love this woman? For one she wrote one of the worlds most popular book series and two she just really loves what she does and i think thats great. She's not in it for the money, she gave up her billionaire status by donating so much to charity. She is just queen. I need to thank her one day for giving me the most magical childhood.

10. Favourite shop/restaurant?

Favourite shop is probably River Island or Jack Wills(SS15 collection is to die for!) Favourite restaurant would be TGI's or The Spaghetti House! 

11. What British song pops into your head?

I feel like this is such a bad song to pop into my head! The first one I thought of was actually the 2010 Dizzee Rascal and James Corden World Cup song😂 SHOUT SHOUT LET IT ALL OUT, COME ON ENGLAND!! But then thinking logically I'd say it has to be the almighty Angels by Robbie Williams!

12. Marmite

I'm not actually lying when I say I don't love it and I don't hate it. I just think it's alright! Sometimes if I fancy it I'll have it on toast but then other times I'm just not feeling it!

Well I hope you enjoyed this little tag, let me know if anyone has the same answers as me! I'd love to know!

Friends share secrets, thats what keeps us close...
