CUPPA TEA? I'LL HAVE ONE: A local woman has made the rookie mistake of being far too obvious with her tea-making intentions, resulting in everyone from her six-year-old niece to her 83-year-old grandmother putting in a request for a cup.

Having not visited the family in over six months, Betoota Heights turned Sydney woman, Jocelyn Loosemore, completely forgot the number one cardinal rule of returning home - if you get up to make yourself a tea, you’re automatically making one for every single person in the house.

When Jocelyn lived with her family, she’d learned very quickly that tea production had to be done in absolute stealth, ideally when no one was within hearing distance of the kettle or watching her movements too closely.

Unfortunately, this time she made her move from the middle of the living room, right in full view of everyone, leaving her with no escape and a lineup of relatives listing their milk and sugar preferences before she even reached the kitchen.

This comes as Jocelyn’s family have a finely tuned sixth sense when it comes to making a cup of tea, somehow knowing by the way she stood up that tea time was about to happen.

“Cup of tea?”

“You’re making tea? I’ll have tea!”

“Oooh me too! Use two bags.”

“Yes, me too! Two sugars please!”
