    Then perhaps you should learn to take no notice when you're slurring to yourself, you coke-addled cretinous ****face.

    The worst was in the hotel dining room at breakfast on the same trip. Nasty nasty self service machine brewed muck. I ended up drinking tea instead.
    Last office I worked in there was a "big-boned" bird always used to order "a small latte"..................then accompanied it with a blueberry muffin the size of her head!

    BTW don't order a 'Latte' in a less touristy part of Italy. The way we pronounce it you will end up with 'La Te' i.e cup of tea or at best a glass of milk much to Mrs Gibbons embarrassment and my amusement.

    Churchill - get to the Docs and fingers crossed.

    The Dutch have a type of coffee called 'koffie verkeerd', which can translate as 'coffee wrong' or 'coffee upside down'. It's basically the same thing as latte and has been around a lot longer than starbucks, but you just don't feel such a poof ordering it. My coffee machine makes it rather well, and I like to dunk digestive biscuits in it. Still arguing with the good lady though; she believes that dark chocolate digestives should be used for coffee dunking, while I prefer plain digestives. Fascinating isn't it?

    What the hell is it?
