Tea Biscuits

When we go to the British Virgin Islands, the couple in one of the units from England always asks us over for tea and biscuits. Biscuits for them are cookies! A wonderful tradition by the way!

My boyfriend's English, and the first time I went there, it took me a while to understand that when they asked what I wanted for tea, it was supper they were referring to, and after the meal they asked what I wanted for pudding, I was thinking "uh, pudding?" when I was told it meant dessert. Flapjacks aren't pancakes but oat cakes, and lemonade is a fizzy lemony drink like sprite.

Go figure!
