From the Book Jacket:
Put a cup of tea in your and what else can you do but sit down? This wonderful book is a celebration of that most British
of life's cornerstones: taking a break, putting your feet up and having a breather.
There is, however, a third element that any perfect sit down requires and it is this: biscuits.
As Nicey so rightly points out, a cup of tea without a biscuit is a missed opportunity. So from
dunking to the Digestive, the Iced Gem to the Garibaldi, everything you'll ever need to know about biscuits is in this
book, and quite a lot more besides.
' Nice Cup of Tea and a Sit Down is not just meant to make you laugh. It is, in its own way, a crusading work of genius. ..
an invaluable reference book, perhaps, to be parked on the shelf next to Delia Smith, ready to resolve any tea or
biscuit related arguments.' Daily Telegraph
'One of the funniest recent books-of-the-website ... wistful, obsessive, wildly over-enthusiastic about mundane details' Time Out
'Nicey can discourse as passionately on biscuits as Nick Hornby would enthuse about old hit singles' Glasgow Herald
