'Did you ever hear of a sailor's cup of tea?'

An explanation of how sailors should prepare and drink tea safely while at sea.

"Did you ever hear of a sailor's cup of tea?" Sean asks. The question has come from a colleague.

"Could it be a wee whiskey or a brandy?" Doc says.

"No, no no!" Sean says. "It's if someone gives you a cup of tea and it's only half filled. That's a sailor's cup. It's only half a cup, because if you're on board you only fill it halfway, because of spillage."

With music from Shakin' Stevens, Olivia Newton-John, John Prine, and more.
