wiggyrichard Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Coffee all the way...tea is very very over-rated and only people from Yorkshire should drink it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theunderstudy Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I agree Wiggy, I do like tea, but I'll have a cup of coffee any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted December 6, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2010 I love both coffee and tea. That's assuming we're talking about proper coffee and not that instant shite - won't give it house room. But if I really had to choose only one or the other, it would have to be tea.

Stevo985 Posted December 6, 2010 Author VT Supporter Share Posted December 6, 2010 I like both, but coffee is a morning drink, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDon Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Just read that Spanish air traffic controllers are paid annually on average the equivalent of $463,000 ..is that for real ? The Times ran this story 11 months ago after the last strike: Of 2,300 controllers, ten were paid between €810,000 (£725,000) and €900,000 last year. A further 226 were paid between €450,000 and €540,000 and 701 were paid between €270,000 and €360,000. The average basic salary is €200,000 but most double or triple this amount by working overtime. In contrast, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, the Spanish Prime Minister, is paid €91,982 a year and the average salary in Spain is €18,087, according to government figures. Full article. Quite an absurd amount ın my opinion. Even if there are high stress levels. For reference, ATC in this country are paid around £50k rising to around £100k with 10years+ experience.

Genie Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I drink too much coffee these days. During my baby boys first few weeks I got into the habit of buying a coffee from McD's as its just down the road on my way to work. Now He's sleeping I can't seem to wean myself off :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Caffeine is a pretty highly addictive drug. The comedowns for people who take it regularly and then go cold turkey can be pretty bad with headaches and shakes. I usually avoid it but do drink red bull some weekends if I have a hangover...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I used to drink it pretty heavily then got headaches and such when there was none around. Those were heady days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonLax Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I used to drink it pretty heavily then got headaches and such when there was none around. Those were heady days. I had a mate at uni who had a bag of it in powdered form for his lab experiments on rats. He used to snort lines of it as it is similar to the effects of a line of speed but the headaches were pretty brutal apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 What a mad cat. I stuck the the more casual approach of 6-10 cups a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 He used to snort coffee?!? WTF! It was pure caffiene in powdered form. He used to give it to the rats to get them to run mazes in quicker times but took it himself on a friday night out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
