Pop out to Macdonalds? For 1.19 they serve a surprisingly good cup of coffee and much better than anything instant (especially if you like it black).


If the one in Cluses is closest it is still a long enough drive for it to have gone cold by the time he gets back. 1995 Defender 110 CSW

I think they're like cheap printers... sell the headline thing cheap and get you on the consumables.

Agreed, but given the number of espressos I drink in a day, at 30c per shot of (usually excellent) coffee as opposed to 1€-2€ of (usually rubbish) coffee, it's a no-brainer. And I've not found a replacement capsule that compares and given I don't drink 'long' coffees, black or white, freshly ground is out of the question until I can blow a load of cash on one of these:




As far as printer cartridges are concerned, if you just use them to print Ģ10 notes, it's a bargain. Thumbs Up

Am I allowed to say that...? Whistle
