....so you can dress up a cup of coffee in a thimble as much as you like, but I aint' the worlds greatest coffee fan (tea's my nectar), the machines at work give you a different cup every trip. You get 9 lousy cups outa' every 10.
Then there's the experts in Latte, Decaf and all that other bollocks......is this more Yankie culture being inflicted on us Brits?

Can't decide what's worse, a Nespresso as advertised by George Clooney or a Wii fit as advertised by Helen Mirren. What I don't understand is - surely neither of them can need the money?

It's all about flogging 'coffee' to particular markets. The swooning woman of a certain age who thinks George is ' luverly' will buy it as in the Helen Mirren case selling moronic 'games' to men of a certain age who still lust after her.

The egg nog latte at Starbucks, the only different thing I ever have of the menu, normally I just have a black coffee.

Basically all these coffee adverts are rubbish, go to a coffee shop buy some good quality grounded coffee and invest in an espresso coffee machine, which does a better job anyway.

You cant smoke inside though and nothing goes better with a coffee than a cig.

Well said that man, there is a connection and you`ve motivated me to leave the igloo and go to the shop for a pack to go with the beverage, cheers :wink:
