From: "John Beamish" 

A typical English breakfast would be several rashers of bacon, a couple of
slices of fried bread, some slices of fried tomato, a fried egg or two,
some sausages and copious quantities of tea.

Your table is set for an afternoon tea ... and I would join you but your
invitation to me and the accompanying directions seem to have been
misplaced by Canada Post.  I wish you a hearty appetite -- have a glass of
champers for me!
