Andrew - Why can’t coffee be simple? I have a love of coffee and since I’ve stopped smoking it’s the first thing I think of when I wake up in the morning (apart from Gusband and the kids of course). As soon as I step out of the shower I can hear Gusband at the coffee machine making my long black. It’s my lovely little kick-start, it’s like my habitual glass of wine at the end of the day.
Why then my wonderful campers am I sitting at home with a dirty old cup of instant coffee in front of me? How has it happened that we have no coffee!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I’m working I’ll have my morning cup at home, then I’ll have another with the troops at work around 10.30 or 11am and then probably one around 3ish. If I’m not working I'll have my coffees from our coffee machine at home. Yes I’m a creature of habit. Not today I’m afraid, there is no coffee in our house and I’m not working so I won't be buying one.

Sawusband would be horrified. I’ve seen him throw a coffee in the bin and walk into a coffee shop next door and try theirs. He even made a trip to Kuta from Seminyak just to get a coffee (and apparently it wasn’t that good.)
So although I don’t think of myself as a coffee snob, some people do make better coffee than others, some people even within the same coffee shop. And it turns out you can fuck up a long black.
Gusband still makes the best coffee, so one of my jobs today will be to go and get some more beans so he can fulfil his morning ritual of making us coffee (aren’t I thoughtful?)
So campers, anyone for a cup of tea? xx
Lucy - It’s a great way to start the Daily Grind with the Daily Grind haha!
Sounds to me like some one has replaced one addiction with another….although I do recall Andrew always loving coffee but did not realize the extent of the addiction.
I start my day with coffee as well, but I could take it or leave it. What I really am doing is taking Henry out for a coffee. He gets lots of pats & attention as well as a snausage from our regular coffee spot…not to mention it the ulterior motive is he sleeps all day then and that's better than the alternative, which is looking for trouble!
We must go every day or the questions start….We thought something was wrong, what happened?
It is expected that we will be there and so we go religiously every morning.

waiting for a snausage
Andrew I hope you manage to get your favourite grind and that Gusband is back making your long black tomorrow.
Happy caffeine hit campers.
