Terry from Totnes in Devon
said life in the town was pure heaven
He would always say please
when offered cream teas
and each day would often eat seven

Ah, cream teas are scones.

That makes them sound rather dull. Much more than that. Scones topped with large amounts of clotted cream and jam (jelly). Yummy!

…and a fine job you do too Elizabeth. I think you should start your own weekly limericks.

Thank you for the link to read the background of Totnes. Your limerick is always fascinating and fun to read, Peter. I love scones – blueberries mixed berries. Creams teas must be very rich. I don’t think I could eat even one, let alone seven.

Thank you! Fattima tried to bring back clotted cream but her container was too big! She has her sisters over regularly utilizing her buckingham tea set!! It’s quite hilarious!

Seven cream teas does sound like heaven. Not sure about those Devon cream teas, though. They put the jam and cream on the wrong way round…
