dytkos 17,784 Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 Love the smell, hate the taste. Haven't had a coffee for best part of 30 years but I do drink about 4 or 5 pints of tea a day. Mrs buys Douwe Egberts no.4 dark roast and mixes the granules with some Lavazzo or similar. Cheers, D. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I rarely drink anything then than water , lucazade or coffee we’ve got a proper machine in the office stacked with granules from a coffee firm called contact coffee , some of the names are a bit cringe but it’s part an parcel of the whole instagram CrossFit operator image , I get those 3 in 1 sachets and bury them constantly all day . Never asleep before midnight Coffee seemed to become ‘cool’ in those circles for some reason. Was it art15 black rifle coffee that was the first on the scene? Fair fucks to them all making successful brands out of it. Wasted on me! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chartpolski 23,471 Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 Anyone paying more than a quid for a cup of coffee has more money than sense ! ! Lidl's own brand Gold Blend, £2:20 a jar. Take a flask full to the allotment, sit in the sun with the chickens chirping, the ducks quacking and the dogs lying about.......f**k those robbing b*****ds like Costa and Starbucks ! !

Borr 5,958 Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 I'm bad for grabbing coffee, but mostly Greggs , cheap enough, if I'm sat down somewhere I'll have a pot of tea, most places don't make a decent brew so a coffee is normally a safer bet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Total f***ing philistine too, the cheapest supermarket home branded stuff and just pour it into a mug out of the jar. Probably 90% of my daily fluid intake. I couldn’t tell a good one from a bad one. I paid two quid at the farm cafe for one this morning though, but in town it’d be nearer 4-5. 7 hours ago, Welsh_red said: Im the same , my brother has the proper coffee beans machine and i cant stand it .

iworkwhippets 12,538 Posted May 21, 2022 Report Share Posted May 21, 2022 It's an expensive cup. Of coffee no doubt about it, I just go in Costa a couple of times a week, with my daughter, but considering times are hard money wise, it's as lways packed where we go Quote Link to post Share on other sites
