More than a cup of tea

Today it is going to take more than my usual after work cuppa to cheer me up. Not the best day with a rather rude colleague followed by announcement that our lovely school is to be turned into an academy by the new management. Unfortunately that means job cuts ....but bet you its not my rude colleague who is for the chop....
Maybe I'm old fashioned but I think manners and curtesy go a long way...
