nowt wrong with asking for a pot of tea at a pub and is my usual recourse when I've had enough of the tonic and lime
It always makes me smile at peoples reaction to you not drinking in the pub and I've found that the best response to 'why don't you drink?' is to stare blankly at some point in the distance, twitch a tiny bit and say 'they don't let you drink in prison…'
ha!
i've heard you use that line.
