"Tea time" sounds so wonderful to me! Do you really have tea everyday, or is it just a designation of the time of day? (I'm hoping to hear that you really do have tea!)
I will re assure you that some of us really do have tea at tea time, but I think maybe we are the older ones and even then it is rare, what is really special is to go out for tea in a cafe, which is traditionally, thin sandwiches followed by fresh baked scones, strawberries and real cream, with of course a pot of leaf tea (not tea bags). The most exclusive luxury would be at The Dorchester in London. More likely it is a pot of teabag tea and a cake in the local cafe.. still pleasant to do with a friend though.
