It is already 18 degrees out and the sky is a beautiful blue. Forecast to reach 27 later Barometer has dropped a little to 1022 mBar. No discernable breeze which I hope changes or else it's going to get very sticky.
First coffee being drunk.
Busy week coming up, I may have work beyond 5 pm a few days.
Today has already seen two wins:
1/ Bug fixed and ticked off in Jira already.
2/ The full contents of my coffee pot fit in a SportsDirect mug with room left for a splash of organic whole milk.
This is the cheap and cheerful coffee machine that produces surprisingly good results (obviously coffee snobs will moan about it not being a burr grinder but I'm an impoverished permie!): Bean-to-cup machine
Works well enough and if I set the coffee and alarm up the night before then there's a pot of coffee waiting for me when I get downstairs in the morning.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't exist

That looks quite smart - modern day teasmaid I don't like a filter coffee, prefer a shorter drink, but the beauty of coffee is that there is something for everyone out there.

I always liked my lattes and flat whites but compared this to the messing around with an aeropress or equivalent and steamer to produce them during the working day (had to let the butler go when I went perm) and settled for this and ordering decent beans instead.
