'Exposing the subtle art around 'Allus bein' reet' or 'having the confidence to ignore advice without the indignity of compromise' 

Grump has exposed the first lesson in not being too sure that: ‘Tha thinks tha's allus reet, dunt tha? It is the vulnerability of the wise man who built his house upon the sand syndrome. For the sake of correctness, women can be just as stupid in this department (apologies to non-stupid women).

​

A classical issue where seeking advice is not a popular form of reassurance. Based on the constant belief that if you look in the mirror and ask for the best advice, it will always confidently come back to you.

​

The ‘see it another way’ principle is totally ignored, and even if pressed, derided. In the certainty that, for example, the argument that a whale is a fish, not a mammal, with the conviction of a Nobel laureate, is true purely because they once said it was.

​

This comes to roost in this Grump-induced story, when he is presented with ‘an alternative world view’ on the simple process of engaging in ‘Th' reet way to sup a brew.’ (the proper way to imbibe the perfect refreshment) it is a ritual, a remedy, and a bridge between stimulus and perfect repose.

 

𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗣!

 

So? Sit back, pause for thought, and prepare your morning in preferred wake-up brew, breakfast, mid-morning, after lunch-time, afternoon tea, before dinner, or suppertime refreshment style. Namely, a perfect cup of tea.

But do it properly! Never oversteep your tea, as that would be both disgraceful and unconscionable.
