You might find it fun to go for a cuppa in a little Transport Caf (cafe)
somewhere, preferably in the morning. There are still a few around where the
tea comes from a giant teapot the size of a small garbage can (usually
wielded by a woman with arm muscles to match) - the tea being poured into
"china" mugs or tea cups with a certain heft which indicates they are
certainly not the poncy chinawear you will find in fortnums or harrods. And
you could accompany it with either baked beans on toast, marmite on toast or
a fried egg buttie (sandwich). Nothing better on a cold, wet and windy
English day.
