This is indeed a good idea. I reckon an early tea place for families would be a winner. It's what Aneto should be doing instead of trying to attract an adult evening crowd for cocktails.

It also works better for kids than afternoon or birthdays teas because although there are cakes, by the time they get there they've filled up on more nutritious food, including a fair amount of protein and fibre, both of which slow down sugar absorption.

Clearly unorthodox, if not actually a breach of UK citizenship, but I expect it goes on. When we have tea at Fortnum & Mason my own sister usually orders a cappuccino (doubly wrong if Italians are present as they don't have it after midday).


Kaffee und Kuchen is German for Elevenses.

    • I've only ever had this problem in dulwich village. It was the same for Forest too.   
    • I get that bit - it's the "we all win"  bit I didn't understand if I look at world, countries I most subscribe to are the ones where taxes are raised significantly, the economy continues to thrive and the rewards lead to a fairer economic outcome - including countries where actual pension income is a lot more  https://www.almondfinancial.co.uk/pension-breakeven-index-how-does-the-uk-state-pension-compare-to-the-rest-of-europe/   but a decent social fund requires chancellor "winning"  
    • Pretty sure it’s the same everywhere in Southwark in that the area around a marked cycle parking bay is geofenced - presumably to encourage riders to use the bays.     
    • They are very funny at the Herne Hill Oxfam, for a charity book shop, about accepting book donations. Last time I tried to drop off a few bags the woman there was quite cross so I took them right back out, and I will not go back again. Definitely had this very same conversation on this forum before, including about the parking. That time I drove them over to a different charity bookshop in Streatham where - shock horror - they thanked me. And since then I've taken other books in smaller quantities to local charity shops.
