[Doctor Gollum]

You still ended up in Croydon though, and thats never a good thing no matter how you get there. 

Driving is worse as you don't accidentally arrive anywhere when you're in control.

[Doctor Gollum]

Starbucks.

Walk in wearing my Dave T shirt, a couple of people in the queue commented on it with a laugh.

Get do the counter...

Hi, do you have cinnamon syrup?
-Yes sir we do.
Excellent, I'll have a grande cinnamon iced latte with an extra shot of coffee.
-Can I take a name?
Er, yeah, it's Dave.

Fast forward ten minutes...

A hot cup of coffee arrives...
That's not what I ordered, it's supposed to be iced.
-Oh, he must of typed it wrong.

Ten minutes later, an iced something arrives with cream on top.

Er, I didn't order that either.
-
Iced latte, cinnamon syrup and extra shot, nothing more or less.
-I know how to make an iced latte.
Best have another go then.
-

Ten minutes later, he starts making it...

Ice, cinnamon powder, shot of coffee and oat milk...
Excuse me, what are you doing?
-Making your cinnamon iced dulce latte...
Just so we're clear, that's not what I ordered.
-Yes it is, we don't have any cinnamon syrup.

I was so gobsmacked I just walked out.

Well if you will drink poncey coffee!

He didn't, as it happens

No. If he'd ordered an Americano, he might have been more successful!

Not just today but everyday,

Not being able to get a white coffee.  If they do a flat white it is only available in small. And it usually has some funky crap on the surface leaving brown scum.

I cannot wait to get back to Spain where a nice white coffee costs 1 euro 20 cents and not a bank loan.

Whats wrong with just wanting a coffee? Why does everyone of them have to have a stupid name?

I just want a black coffee please. Americano? Just a black coffee. Americano? just a black coffee

I bet you can get a nice big mug of milky Nescaf down your local Greasy Spoon for not much more than a quid.

I will only drink my own made with milk, I prefer egberts and brown sugar, it cannot be beaten although I don’t drink it much as I’m a tea man. Especially nice with a dash of courvoiser XO in it👍

[Sir Tigger KC]

I drink black Nescafe Gold. It's quick, easy, cheap enough and I like it. 

I go round friends places, " Coffee? " and I know it will take half and hour for them to make it in their fancy coffee machine that cost more than their car and when it comes it looks and tastes like a cup of tar!

You're not wrong

Although coffee, milk, ice and syrup is hardly poncy

It is compared to Nescafe Gold Blend!

No Columbian instant in Lidl for the last 2 weeks so got some other (cant remember what and cant be asked to look) not quite as good to me but better than the floor sweeping they use for regular "cheap" instant. Lemon green tea is my drink the rest of the day.
