Do you get the impression I could talk about coffee all day. Well, you would be right I really could!
I could never understand when I was a child my mum would insist that we stopped for a coffee when we shopped in the city, or that she would ‘just need a quick coffee’ before we went anywhere. I totally get it these day.
Good coffee is a pause and a refuelling. It is a pure delight.
