Another guy I work with used to bring a little electric handheld whisk in, so that he could froth up his coffee. Cretins, the lot of them. Agree on the woman, she sounds like a right lollipop but the bloke is correct to get a little froth going with his coffee. The crema dissipating on your top lip is part of the experience of a nice espresso. Wait.... I'm with them both on the list now aren't I? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the last 3 months I've heard her say that the local Costa, Philpotts and the coffee shop in our building all burn the beans. Whereas, it's more likely that they don't even roast the beans themselves, and that it's just stronger than she likes it. Not to mention that I've only seen her go to these places 2, maybe 3 times each, so she'd need to have been very unlucky to have gotten burnt beans every time. I love my coffee strong, and I just mentioned this morning that I like the coffee from the coffee shop in our building because it's always strong. Straight away she replied "Oh, I don't like their coffee, they burn the beans". She then gets one of her Nescafe Cappuccino sachets out of her drawer. "I like these, they're actually really nice" guarantee she’s heard someone say that chain coffee places roast their beans really dark because it masks the cheaper low quality beans they use and is parroting it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted August 9, 2019 Moderator Share Posted August 9, 2019 Morning work ritual has become 5 heaped teaspoons of ground coffee in a one cup cafetiere. Drunk black, that gets me going 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 I’m definitely a caffeine addict. Or maybe a coffee paraphernalia addict. I recently bought my 4th coffee machine. Due to having such a small kitchen, I’ve made the executive decision to move the other 3 into the garage. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted August 10, 2019 Moderator Share Posted August 10, 2019 The missus putting stuff in the tumble drier and just leaving it in there, wet. I've come to use it and the towels she put in there two days ago are still in there delaying my washing chores. It's not a one off, she does it all the time Later on she'll be hassling me about how I'm monopolising the washing machine. I'd be on my final load if it wasn't for her tardiness 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a similar theme, my Mrs can't load a dishwasher to save her life. Or at least she refuses to put any thought into doing it. Every evening I have to take everything out and put it back in again in order to clean more than a handful of things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours broke, I'm not in a hurry to replace it, it's easier just to wash the stuff when you've used it 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some parts of Ibiza are absolutely stunning. Cant taint the whole island just because of the British nob heads that frequent San Antonio after dark. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
