Have to giggle... person I know that lives in a rather posh part of town posts on FB earlier this morning that's she's hosting lunch for the family today - traditional steak and ale pie with a real suet topping. But just loving her recent FB update :

Just having coffee and embroidery in the drawing room while the men have port and cigars in the dining room.

I have posh friends!

Where do they live, Downton Abbey??? I had no idea anyone still did that ladies withdrawing after dinner thing

Coffee!

Surely ladies should only drink tea in the drawing room? Best China, pinky sticking out.

Standards!

Better not come round here, then ... the normal "apres lunch" tipple for guests is Navvies' Tea, served in a mug in the sitting room!

Same here Ossie
