The British Tag!

I first saw this tag on Essie Button's youtube channel, and really enjoyed it, and I thought it’d be a good one to try since I am, well.. British! Although I do believe it was created by Sammi from The Beauty Crush, you can check out her video here. 

#tbt to the Alice in Wonderland cushion I made last year, I thought the quote was appropriate!              

So here goes . . . 

1.         How many cups of tea do you drink daily and how many sugars?

Hmmm, I’d say on a good day 5 and bad day i.e. a stuffy day, 3. But my record is 9! Yes I luuurve tea. I don’t have any sugars, and usually just add milk, but I do love a good cup o’black tea.

2.         What is your favourite part of a roast dinner?

The Yorkshire pudding. I mean, can you blame me? They’re so yummy, and even have the word ‘pudding’ in the title. I rest my case.

3.         What is your favourite dunking biscuit?

Hands down; the Rich Tea Finger. Nom nom nom! However, I would like to add that it does take a lot of skill to dunk with these biccys as they do break rather easily, but no bother, I have lots of experience hehe!

4.         Favourite quintessentially British pastime?

Picnicking! I do love a good picnic, and is this a typically British pastime? I don’t know? But either way picnics are great, especially in summer with your friends and family.

5.         Favourite Word?

 Ooh I have a few! I like the word 'bumble' which means 'to wander aimlessly' (as a verb). I also like the word 'agapé' which is greek, and represents the type of love shared between friends. And my favourite french word is 'étoile' which means 'star' - just in case you were wondering.

6.         Cockney rhyming Slang.

         Thanks to ‘The Logo Quiz’ game I now know that ‘Toblerone’ means ‘on your own’.

7.         Favourite Chocolate/Sweet?

I’m not such a big fan of chocolate but if I had to choose one it’d be the ‘Milkybar’ mmm white chocolate! And I guess my favourite sweet would be those bubblegum flavoured cola bottles that you get in pic-a-mix bags.

8.         What would your pub be called?

The paintpot. I think that’s quite cute, don’t you?

9.         Favourite British Person.

Of all time: Audrey Hepburn. Of the moment: Cara Delevingne (or Prince George - what a cutie!)

10.    Favourite shop/restaurant?

I’d say my favourite British shop would either be ‘Cath Kidston’ as it’s so original. OR it would be Harrods – because who doesn’t love Harrods?

My favourite restaurant would most likely be “Frankie and Benny’s” but I don’t think that’s British at all.

11.    What British song pops into your head?

Well I’ve had ‘Dog Days are Over’, by Florence and the Machine, in my head all day so let’s go with that!

12.    Marmite?

Unsure. I've never actually tried Marmite, although I have tried Marmite crisps but I wasn't too keen.

And that’s all for today! I hope you enjoyed this post just as much as I did. I tag Megan from Megan's Little Blog, Emma from ImagineLaceDragons and Alice from Alice's Wonderland, to do this tag as I'd love to see their answers. Make sure to check out their blogs too, because they're both lovely!

Ta ta for now,

Love Roseanne
