I think the calls to the tealady and the manager "for coffee" will simmer down for a week or so.

Sadly, it appears that the manager is not about to for coffee, at least not for now.

I gather that the win this week spoiled what would have been a good earner for the Tea Lady. Her friends at a well known Tea Company had the Team down to appear in a series of TV ads titled PG Chumps! Though it has been put on the back burner it could be a temporary delay!

Surely more macaroons go than that?

Never seen them for sale. I think they're an "under the counter" item.

I'm surprised to see the chart above only refers to sales made to concessions....yet another scurrilous attack on the older supporter, blaming them for lower turnover. Anyway, surely the correct term these days should be, 'supporter of age', and not the more loaded and derogatory term, 'concessions'.

Tealady has had an offer of her own tea room at a SL Club, however she has stated that the secret ingredient for the brew here is close to her heart and she intendeds to stay as the future is bright the future is Tea.

They over charge for them at Odsal. Most people go down to the Mayo Ave Morrisons and pick them up cheap.

But the club has been clamping down on that recently and has instituted random bag searches for snack items

Not really meaning to stir the pot here, but the talk of the pot washers (whilst smoking a cheeky tab just after half time) was that the catering manager has sensationally quit as it looks like his favourite tea-boy has got a deal elsewhere, in the far-away exotic east.

Due to the lack of a proper macaroon icer since the start of the year, this tea-boy has been employed as a pot washer, tea maker, Coffee grinder and (stand-in) macaroon icer while at Odsal, despite only being a tea-boy really, (but hasn't made a bad job of it.)

However this has broken the Catering managers heart, and instead of making his own tea he has decided to leave instead.

Well without his favourite Tea-C'Addy I suppose it was a foregone conclusion...
