Afternoon Tea for Hubby's birthday?

What should i have on the menu consequently as he no longer wants to run to a Tea Shop!! (shame as i was hoping for a rest) I am thinking of little sandwich with mixed filling and scones with preserve and clotted cream. What else can i do? (Am in UK)

Answers:
Take a look at the website for The Ritz within London - they have the unharmed menu of their Afternoon Tea listed - and the food within is SCRUMMY... Cut the sandwiches nice and small and transport off the crusts. Scones and a few other different cake too - how about individual sponge cake and slices of fruit cake? Arrange everything on 'pretty' little plates - get out the best china and maybe go overboard and carry some paper doilies too. Hope you soak up yourself, even if you're not getting the rest you wanted.
I know what i want for my birthday...and its not food or tea
Butterfly cake - Toasted T-Cakes - Fondant Cakes - Crumpets - depends on how hungry his.
Make sure when you are planning this special outting that you are planning with his interests and like, rather than yours. I know that European men are more liberal within their tastes than Americans, but unless he's a tea connoisseur, I don't reflect a High Tea service would rock many mens worlds.

Why not filch him to a nouveau Sake house or for a massage and steam?
You made my daylight! I thought I was the oldest human being on this site, but afternoon tea for your husband's birthday treat?
Try a 60s English definition of a continental breakfast. A roll in bed beside a little honey. In suitcase you've forgotten, there's such a thing as an 'all-day breakfast'.
Take him out for a really hot, hot, hot Indian buffet. India's rise in the world wasn't built on cucumber sandwich and scones.
finger sandwiches approaching you said
maybe some "petit fours"
small cheese cake (you can make a cheese cake and cut it into smaller pieces to serve)
small eclairs
small croissants (you can buy those at your bakery)
