    You're in Switzerland - I thought *everybody* had one there???

    (Although I prefer the old type espresso on the stove (you know, with the little trumpet thing), I don't have time for it in the morning).

    Thanks for the comments guys! I've bought one - it was the starving babies that really sold it to me.

    Anyone know where I can get some conflict diamonds?

    I worked at Nestlé a couple of years ago, so at least the money they alledgedly make out of starving third world babies has gone to a good cause. Nespresso coffee is very good. A variety of blends are available. Not as messy as other types of coffee machine.

    That's a Nestlé thing, isn't it? Don't they get their milk by stealing it from starving African babies?

    Ha ha good pun!

    I've got one. The capsules work out a bit expensive but we only use 2 or 3 ish a day so only have to make a £20 order one every few months.
