Don't stick your little finger out, always put milk in second and NEVER serve cupcakes: Etiquette expert Susie Wilson explains the rules of afternoon tea. Milk in first or last? Milk is added last and there really is no negotiation on this. You do not know how strong the tea is before pouring it into the cup but also there are sometimes aspersions cast as to a person’s heritage if they put milk in first. This stems from the servants of a large house who used to drink from unrefined clay mugs which could crack when hot tea was poured, so they popped a bit of milk in, before, to act as a coolant. The upstairs of the house drank from fine bone china or porcelain so did not need to. www.susiewilson.co #teaetiquette #hightea #knowledge #gentlemen #ladies #happylife #knowledge #englishmanners #society #susiewilson1 #susiewilsonetiquetteexpert #susiewilsonfinishingschool #manners #media #hotels #propermanners #rulesofetiquette #mentor (at Susie Wilson Finishing School)

I’m also a strong advocate of the 80-20 rule – where 20% of the causes lead to 80% of the effects. Many outcomes in life are attributable to a few small actions, and once we get all those key actions right, we will gain phenomenal results.
