    It's impossible to repot chilli plants in the office without getting compost all over the desk!

    15 years ago I tried my first choccie croissant and hated it. This week I tried my second and am now addicted. I now have 15 years of missed opportunity to make up for.

    I had a similar experience with Brioche. Tomatoes, on the other hand, remain utterly revolting.

    Every time I have a pain au chocolat I immediately think that there's not enough chocolate. So I have another, by which time the chocolate flavour has become strong enough.
    Looking for a cycling buddy?

    And £2 is too much to pay for a double espresso, it was £1.50 in the same coffee shop last week. I pointed out that I thought that was too much of an increase, he then lifted up a bag of the beans they use and pointed to it like it was a valid reason*. I couldnt actually see as I was walking out to another shop that charges £1.60 and is 40 meters away. I have a stove top pot at home which I make my own coffee with on the weekend, looks like I might be getting up 20 mins earlier tomorrow to make my own.

    *It might be the best coffee in the World but he grinds it a ton at a time then stores it in a metal tin for God knows how long.

    It's always worth nipping into Maplin's to check their clearance offers. I bagged a pair noise reduction headphones today at half price. 8)

    For the office, not for when cycling.


    In case you were wondering.

    And the tube - which i use occasionally.

    My cat used to be able to make R2D2 noises. when still a kitten if he was ever excluded from a room he'd sit in front of the door and make funny whistling and buzzing noises. I've never heard a cat make noises like that since.

    I found out last night why it says on Ginseng to not drink it with coffee.

    Edit, I meant in the same day not from the same vessel.

    There's a bird in the back of the garden here that has picked up an annoying habit of whistling or whatever like a car alarm.

    I'm having Jordans Mueseli and greek yoghurt for breakfast. When I say Jordan's, I don't mean the glamour model, but the breakfast cereal company.

    My son made a usb flash drive out of a little beanie platypus. You pull his beak off and plug him in. Ver popular with the ladies in the office.
