‘Every day I take my wife a cup of tea in bed. She loves this ritual and I like performing it. However, we sometimes make love in the mornings (after I’ve brought the tea) and she pauses to finish her cup before it goes cold. For me, it kills the moment. I’m sure our love life would be more passionate if she didn’t take this short tea break.’

And there was no shortage of advice after the reader’s letter went wildly viral on Twitter.

This is a non problem. Drink the tea, have the shag. It’s the pattern of marriages all over Britain.

If it were peak English the tea would still be piping hot after the sex.
