Fleecy lives in the UK? Anyone know where? I know a few lads who would "like to pop in for tea" :-D
Care to elaborate on that?
I'm sure (I'd hope) it was meant as humor.
No, I really do know some people who'd like to pop in for tea ;-)
I can see the scenario...
Lads: "Hi Fleecy, just thought we'd pop round for a cuppa!"
Fleecy: "Come in! Take a seat! I don't get many visitors..."
The lads sit down on Fleecy's red and white checked sofa...
Fleecy: "I'll go make the tea... but first, can you give me $50?"
Lads: "What? $50 for a cup of tea?"
Fleecy "No, $50 for membership to my tea club! The tea is free. It's just so that I know you're serious about drinking the tea, and so that I know how many cups to make."
Lads: "Not sure I like the sound of that..."
Fleecy: "It's great, really!, If you join now you will recieve a free T-shirt signifying your membership, regular newsletters updating you on the latest developments in tea technology, and a coupon entitling you to $50 off our new range of tea bags which may or may not be released at some as-yet undecided time in the future, maybe"
The lads grudgingly hand over $50 each...
Fleecy: "Thanks!"
Fleecy puts on his coat and heads for the door.
Lads: "Uh, Fleecy, where are you going?"
Fleecy: "I just have to pop out for a bit to pay some bills"
Lads: "Where is our tea?"
Fleecy: "Oh, I don't actually make the tea myself - I let someone else take care of that."
Lads: "Well where is our coupon?"
Fleecy "Oh you don't get a coupon, I was just speaking figuratively"
Lads: "Well where's our T-shirts?"
Fleecy: "Uhh.. they'll be ready in a few weeks"
The lads get up and leave... no tea, no t-shirt, no coupon, and $50 poorer.
Fleecy smiles.
