Just asking. I love it. Some fun stats here..
I was surprised to see Italy wasn’t as big a coffee consumer as I had thought.
If you don’t like coffee, I bet you like tea. Have yet to meet someone who likes neither.
(Sorry freqy for the source of the article. I understand that because of the jimmy saville cover up (which seems to also include every person he’s ever been in contact with), and the fact Trump has stated that BBC is fake news, that this must probably be either: fake, manipulating, or with some sort of sordid agenda, one all these journalists signed a pact towards.)

I suppose I should just open my eyes, and maybe rely more on YouTube videos for my information intake. IlluminatiKiller86’s channel is tickling my fancy.

i started liking coffee a lot, never really was a coffee drinker in the past. i'm also drinking much less alcohol. kinda switching from one drug to another. might be because i have more office work to do these days

i do like coffee but the stuff in hospital is muck, not had a cafetiere brew in a couple of years. i suppose i could use my leave to go to the upmarket coffee shop on hospital grounds but i'd have to be accompanied by staff, which would just make me feel like more of an invalid than i already do. shame though, i like a nice caffeine buzz

it isn't so bad, but i'm not in great shape physically, it can be a bit of a downer. i try not to feel sorry for myself though, still lots to listen to that's new and exciting, plenty to learn online, funny new comedy etc. keeps us far saner than any pill could

I'm not a coffee snob either, you can get sachets with everything in it by Nescafe, all you do is add boiled water. That's enough for me.

I bloody love coffee, i used to drink like 8 cups a day but I've cut down to half that now, on average.
Espressos and cappuccinos are my preference although i mostly just have standard coffee with milk these days as i dont have a machine any more.

Seems like where its coldest the more coffee is consumed, I can imagine wanting to consume a nice warm beverage in those conditions. Yes I prefer coffee to tea, I'm not too fussed on tea

Sorry to hear that. I understand how you must feel, my dog is on heart medication, can’t see very well, and went deaf last year. He’s 14 and still very present though. I do worry when he desperately tries to cough and goes into a sort of fit. Give your dog a pat for me!

she will be 17 next december. i joke with her with the fact that once she will be gone, i will have less work to do. giving her more attentions as her heart failure becomes more symptomatic.

The first bit is a guy speaking normal German, when you’ve listened a bit, skip to 2:25.. at 2:29 he begins a tirade is typical Swiss German (for about 15-20 seconds). It’s relentless, it’s like hens given the power of speech, and the master of the “KH” sound, often followed by the the worst rolling Rs ever. Those that don’t involve the tongue and only the palate. Spit already.

Oh that’s what Albert is taking. Been on it for a few years and it’s really helped. He won’t swallow them, even with treats or hidden in one. I tried forcing him but never again, but if I crunch the tab into a bit of his food he’ll usually go for it. Does Maya accept pills?

i already force 'legart' pills (a supplement for her arthritis) into her throat everyday. i learned to do it almost surgically, using only one finger and lasting no more than a second. i would crunch the pills in the food but she doesnt always eat evertything, so i would be uncertain. the vet told me the pills are tasty, but to try with ham (without fat) or turkey slices, but i know she will select them from the pills. will probably end up doing it with the force, its half a tab in the morning, half in the evening.
