    My house. No contest. No one makes a coffee to my taste like my wife does. Even I don't know how she does it.

    @ Ali - God no! Dream River? They use mediocre beans and never clean the machine. Every time I've had their espresso, it tasted burnt. You can't make good coffee using cheap beans. You can't make a good cappuccino using crap espresso.

    Good for Food is pretty much the only place around here where I'll drink the coffee. Can't speak for CE, though. I feel like I should explore their coffee shops a bit more.

    Good For Food - 2 votes.

    I accidentally had a coffee in a Weatherspoons pub the other day. It was surprisingly OK. So the White Lion it is.

    Tea goddamit. The desire for a good cup of tea caused britain to start wars with half the world.

    Rainbow Carnage I guess I like the Dream café because I thought Blend 37 was pretty exotic when I was at Uni. They are pretty good with kids as well ! although Patrica is going back to Brazil soon.

    TEA!! Although, will never have a cup of tea from a cafe because they can't make it properly - water is always reboiled or not boiled at all. Dreadful.

    You can tell if water has been boiled twice? Blimey.

    Has anyone ever put you up on a bed of many mattresses where you couldn't sleep because of the niggling feeling there was a tiny round object somewhere at the base of it?

    You could go on "You Bet" with a talent like that.

    ... "Boiled twice Matthew"... "Boiled once Matthew"...

    whatever happened to You Bet? I LOVED that programme...

    'are you going to bet it?
    you bet!
    well you'd better get on it!
    you bet!
    So dont fret, get set, are you ready??
    YOU BET!'

    or something like that.

    btw - does anyone know the line in the cadbury's fudge jingle, the one after 'it's full of cad-bury goodness and...'???

    i've been substituting 'and really small and neat' but i figure it's wrong.

    A Cadbury's Fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat. A finger of Fudge is just enough until it's time to eat. It's full of Cadbury goodness But there is more I need.

    This seems to be the consensus on interweb but everyone I've asked is singing something along the lines of 'really small and neat'. One goes as far to suggest 'but there is more I need' is simply wrong and makes no sense.

    That's definitely 'but very small and neat', no? God damn lies on the interweb.

    Hooray!! That's made my day! And only 10p! They're only like 15p now, and that ad must be from the 70s...???

    aah - 1985. But still! In 1986 I worked in a bar where a pint of lager was 68p. If you applied the finger of fudge inflationary rate that should make it like £1.06 a pint. There is no justice in this world.
