High tea or roti?

On Wednesday we were invited to our hosts' nanny Cherrie's house for either High Tea or Roti - with Cherrie's Trinadad accent we weren't quite sure - she had promised me some authentic roti before our trip was over so when she said, "C'mon over at 4 for ... tea - Joe was sure she said high tea, given it's a british island and the time. I, eager for the roti, had high hopes! Well, to be on the safe side, we ate a late lunch and arrived at Cherrie and Roy's home at 4pm sharp - the table was beautifully set with tea cups.... I knew right away - (though the tea sandwiches were delightful!) A few hours later, after non-stop talk and laughter, we told Cherrie about my mistake - she laughed so hard she almost fell off her chair.... and this coming Tuesday I'd get my roti - can't wait - yum yum.
