Why is tea in England always served with the handle on the right side of the cup ?

I think you maybe wrong this time

No idea, particularly considering the fact that you guys drive on the wrong side of the road.😋

So swashbucklers can't pull out their swords whilst having tea with the Queen.

...or you could sit on the opposite side of the table.

They are not called handles, they are called "ears". And one always points their ear to the left because the teabag goes on the right (I say, you must be a commoner). Oh, and don't forget, it's pinky up only when drinking tea with the Queen.)

Because you guys are anal-retentive? 😜

Most people are right-handed, maybe?

nimbus... dear nimbus... turn it around......

Right handed people being in the majority, I suppose. I just turn it around.

A test was once made in England concerning left-handed tea cups. A researcher asked an Africaans shopkeeper to see some teacups, and the shopkeeper brought out a few examples. "What about a left-handed cup - have you any of those?" he was asked. "No, sorry!" was the reply. So, no deal.
The researcher then went to a Jewish shopkeeper, and asked him for cups, and some were brought out. "Do you have any left-handed cups?" the researcher asked. The shopkeeper took a cup and turned the handle round to face the way a left-handed person would want it.
