You can only drink black tea when it's Earl Grey, and even then milk is sometimes permissible in it.
Word of law. Never sugar.

I don't like tea in any form
so am happy to defer to your verdict on this matter. Knowing this sort of tea-related etiquette may come in handy one day.

Actually, my statement is completely incorrect.
I think there are different types where it's more likely to drink black- like Lady Grey (strong citrus flavour) and other particular types.

I find it inconceivable that you don't like tea, but I am the girl who drank 60 cups when home over Christmas.

Was that a target, or did you just drink your way through a box?
Whenever I'm hungover at one friends house, we'll always start the day with marmite on toast, and a brew. After that, the brews are non-stop, until we're vibrating from the caffiene (and sugar).

I need one of those days soon, not had any tea in over a month.

I noticed that, isn't it meant to be lemon?

It is well-documented that I am made of wrong.

What would they have done?
I had a dream a cleaner tried to clean my room. It didn't go well and they were chasing after me trying to charge me £50 for something I would say that I'd do but wouldn't.

she keeps asking
To be allowed to clean my bedroom. It sounds stupid but I still get a bit suspicious of her.

Hmm.
Just claim you're very very private. How messy is your bedroom?

I've just cleaned both my rooms
It's just how messy my room is, is usually a direct indicator of my health (when I'm ill I have zero energy) , and up to my second year I suspect the chaplain still asked the cleaner how bad it was.

My room is always messy.
Seriously messy.

At least I no longer have to keep food in it.

Charms cleaned the kitchen while I was out on Saturday.
Keep meaning to thank her.

THANK YOU CHARMONSTER
