Coffee prices

[simongt]

Althought I've a lot to do the morn as I'm due for the slice & dice table at the hospital on Friday morning, I've decided sod it, I'm going to my favorite coffee stop and have the only decent coffee I'll be getting for the next few weeks.
I'll be confined to barracks for a month after discharge, then I have to take it carefully for several weeks movement wise after that, so great coffee, here I come - !

Speaking of greasy and salty, what's KFC all about?

A bucket of spiced and salted lard and random animal bones with a picture of George Michael on the side. Youd need a serious grudge against yourself to eat that.

I don’t mind a bit of salty, nutrition free rubbish now and again as a stopgap but even I draw the line at KFC after my one and only visit.

Stopped at one of my regular places today. Ordered a flat white and a sticky toffee cake. The Manager decided the piece was a bit too small so gave me an extra slice for free. You don't get that at Starbucks!

I went into a nice cafe late one afternoon and there were only 2 slices of chocolate cake left

I asked for one and the manager was just tidying up as I was getting served
He said "I'm just closing up so we'll never sell that last one and it's a bit small anyway - do you think you can manage both"

my wife rolled her eyes and I got 1 1/2 slices of cake

Used to visit Cafe Nero a lot when I got a free one every week but there is none anywhere near me now. Nearest is across the border.

Most of the coffee I drink now comes from a Nespresso machine. I have one at home and one at work, with a milk frother at each location too. From the selection of samples you get with each machine I pretty much stick with a couple of favourites which allows me to do a mug sized coffee, an espresso and a latte depending on what I want at the time.

It's the little things that always brighten up your day!

Watch yourself on those Starbucks cake slices, you can cut your mouth on them.
