tabnab: (slang, UK, Navy) A small item of food offered at break times,
normally the morning break.
So, a biscuit or cake could be a tabnab.
I have this image of Bush & Obama, and respective wives, sitting round
a small, grubby table drinking large mugs of tea, smoking, dressed in
dirty boiler suits.
