Coffee


The Berrow's Journal of Worcester, claims to be the oldest newspaper in the world. They are rightly proud of this fact, and relay old stories in a weekly feature as a kind of demonstration of their history of recording local events.
 

They claim that 250 years ago, on Sunday last, died David Moore, Master of the Old Coffee House, Worcester. He was valued and esteemed by the nobility and gentry that frequented it, for his obliging behaviour, and is much lamented by all his acquaintances.
 
I think perhaps I should be extending my demands as a customer beyond requesting almond syrup in my latte. I've clearly been selling myself short!

  7. If I remember rightly, I drank a cup of nescafe and then told my boyfriend that I had slept with his brother. Funnily enough he is no longer my boyfriend, and neither is his brother.

  8. The best coffee is found in Italy, and certainly not in MacDonalds.
