Don't care what time of day it is, I definitely need another stiff drink!

It's my last day at work and I've just had my presentation etc. All a bit emotional and now I'm off to the dentist to have a tooth out - oooer!

When I had it at Starbucks that one time, I quite liked it, plus there was real chocolate on the top. Originally I thought it was a coffee until I saw the sign again

I still can not find any Maple - Pecan Danishs', I have tried Starbucks and Costa Coffee

All I can say Boris is that we did not let the good name of your establishment down! In fact if I should not be surprised if a few famous faces start turning up once the word is passed around by a certain tall, dark gentleman.

We have more to offer than just the 'odd' famous name...! LOL

Companionship, fun and frolics....but all in the best possible taste.

NOW WHERE have I heard that before ???

I've bought Oreo's from my local Sainsbury's several times, and guess what, I live in Staffs!!

However, I'm not allowed to eat them now, I'm on a diet and Boris is keeping me on the straight and narrow. I've lost 3 and a half stones so far. so no more Oreo's for me

Looks like, when I can I will have to make tracks to the only Sainsbury I know of up here in the Hinterlands, that in Washington Tyne & Wear

Does Sainsbury's do online shopping ?

BTW I got a new cafetiere for single cups as my current one broke at the knob where you pull the plunger up.

See attached.

I also bought some Irish Cream coffee so I could see what Irish coffee is supposed to taste like, being a teetotaler.

Being a total innocent I had no idea I had committed the faux pas of a double entendre

It makes one paranoid at how one can be misconstrued

I found another coffee maker that I would love to get. Then I could make hot steaming frothy cappuchinos all by my self.

Sticks you are getting to be a bit obsessed about this coffee thing. I am getting quite worried. Have these Hells Angels been turning your head.
