Fab and very trueHowever, I do take issue with my learned friend above.
I have never accumulated teaspoons. On the contrary, mine seem to vanish without a trace on a fairly regular basis.
My cutlery draw is full of mismatched teaspoons and when I have a massive crowd of, say, 15 or more people who come round to my house for tea, crumpets and those little triangle-shaped cucumber sandwiches with the crusts cut off, I am very embarrassed to offer my guests teaspoons for their tea stirring activity because of the mis-matchedness, causing my position as one of the socially elite to be put severely in jeopardy.
