More Tea, Vicar?

They eat scones in the afternoons. Not scones (which rhyme with stones) like I do, but scones. Probably with yoghurt. Which they pronounce yog urt, instead of yo gurt. It's far from that I was raised.

So I'm wide awake, fretting slightly about what to wear for an afternoon littered with social beartraps. I shouldn't worry, really. He's not. He's lying beside me, dozing fitfully, farting batterburger and chips.

And it's far from that he was raised.
