We need multiguess ticky boxes so we can also press ticky box. But yes, Tea and Coffee. I know you are in England, but in America we usually get Coffee Only. Not even Hot water. And I'm allergic to coffee, so I always have to bring in my tea from outside. Then they get annoyed when you have the dreaded Outside Drink. Well, if you had served Tea... And of course half the time, they have hot water and Lipton's *grumble*. Gourmet Coffee and then Lipton's for tea. Bleh. I'll get off my box now.
This was a meeting between three companies, but no drinks of any sort were offered. A colleague says that this is par for the course at that office. I shall learn my lesson for next time.
How Dreadful. Definitely bring in your own goodies! Perhaps you should embarrass them by bringing in a picnic basket? Suppose not if you want to stay on good terms with them. *sigh* But I would definitely bring in something I like to drink in appropriate container. I'm an American heathen, it would probably be Iced Tea in a flip top water bottle. ;D
