Actually, British universities exist to facilitate the drinking of tea. Any research that gets done is considered a bonus, or in extreme cases, detrimental. 9:30am - start off with a cuppa. That'll last you through to official tea time at 10:30, which can easily be extended until lunchtime, wherein you'll need another cup of tea to prepare you for the afternoon. Fortunately that could take so long that you end up in official afternoon tea, which will probably last until it's time to go home, full of delicious tea and with none of that pesky "research" having slowed you down.
