Everything stops fore tea

"Hell's bells, Binky," roared the irate old admiral to his friend at the 19th

"Hell's bells, Binky," roared the irate old admiral to his friend at the 19th. "Just been playing with a chappie from the Treasury. One of those civil service wallahs." "Bring him in for a drink, eh?" enquired the other old sea dog. "Can't," replied the admiral. "There we were playing the 16th when someone shouted `fore.' Damned if the blighter didn't sit down on the spot and wait for a cup of tea. Left him there. Rum lot those Treasury chaps."
