Cream tea

So that's jam and cream on a - what?  Sconn or scown?  And do you put the jam on first or the cream?  Well, in the manner of these things, research has been done, and it seems by a small margin, that sconn (to rhyme with gone) has it over scown (to rhyme with 'phone).  But when it comes to the topping the result is clear - it's jam topped with cream rather than the reverse.  And the cuppa to go with it?  Strong tea - milk in first?  Don't make me laugh - tea first followed by milk is the way the overwhelming majority of us want it.
