Dunno why I haven't had a rant on here about these Coffee shop types before.
Starbucks, Cafe Nero, Costa an the like, it's not the shops that I dislike, it's the people who frequent them an buy into the whole lifestyle thing.

I've never been into one, not just because I'm a tight arse an wouldn't dream of payin ?3 for a cardboard cup of froth, but because I hate that whole I have to get my caffeine fix first thing cause I'm sooo stressed with work an my busy lifestyle thing.

What a load of bollocks these people spout about a Tall skinny Latte or a Double decaf soya latte. What's an Americano? A flat white? What is this nonsense?

It's Coffee.

Maxwell house or Nescafe, that's as much as you need to know about Coffee.

Or perhaps a fair trade brand that tastes crap but makes you feel like your doin your bit to save the planet.

I'm off for a brew.

I have a wallet full of loyalty cars to wanky London coffee shops. ' Cafe Nero' in Old Compton Street, now there's a good one from about 8 years ago. If I'd worked a late session then that was my place to pop in for a brew and read my notes.

Pretty much what you'd expect, but always some entertainment after midnight. The coffee was okay but the people watching was second to none.

I nearly had a problem with some pissed up arse who stumbled in one night and decided that he wanted a pop at me for 'looking at him'. I look at everybody. It's what I do. A 6' tall transvestite friend of mine pushed him out before I could say 'eh?'

Cost me a round a coffees, mind. Gas, grass or ass - ain't nobody rides for free.

I miss all that sometimes.
