O deer Thtanlee. How little you understand about our ways. The jam and 
the cream come at exactly the same time. In little silver pots on a 
medium sized silver tray. 

How you apply it to the scone (with a fine hand crafted silver knife) is 
all a matter of personal choice. No-one will think badly of you for 
putting the jam on before the cream, but it is considered poor form to 
eat such fare in front of the staff, or starving peasants. 

Let 'em eat horse.
