These notes are for
my American grandson, Harry. Harry, this is how Grandpa makes a cup
of tea.
1 Switch kettle switch
to ON.
2 Switch kettle switch
to OFF. Fill with water.
3 Repeat Action 1.
4 Wipe spilled water
from round the kettle and the teapot.

teapot. Say bad word.
6 Take down tea caddy
and put 1.5 teaspoons of tea into the teapot.

pour too much over the tealeaves and close lid.

tea. Close lid.
10 Repeat Action 4.
11 Pick up dishcloth
from the floor and put it in the sink.
12 Set timer for four
minutes.
