The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

[Wonderer67]

Ooh, no. Some of them are dives. That Twitter gif. A regular event in some pubs!

Especially near football stadiums!

I don’t mind.

I can't keep up - too many meetings today at work.

Rick's not the anti-social one, my co-worker is. Rick just posted the thing that made me think of her.

Grey - Hi, my name is Likes and I gave up caffeine 15 years ago. For you? I'll share the decaf.

That's all for the moment... this work thing's really cramping my style.

 

[Wonderer67]

Sorry, I just want to be accepted by you guys as a coffee drinker!

Coffee and beer?

welcome.

The ones near Emirates are excellent. I tend to drink in soho now and in old Compton Street.

I’m starting to countdown the days to retirement. 3650 days and counting…

Is this tea?

It's very different to the tea here, you make it I think with sugar on the side or lemon, no milk.

Hard keeping the minutes?...

I used to like the rough and tumble places near upturn park.

My favorite. Good food, beer and bands. In Islington.

Well tea is the nation's drink. And I don't really drink it, I live on coffee.
I have an italian stove pot,
A Turkish coffee stove pot,
A cafetierre (you call them French press which I think is hilarious),
A nespresso machine,
And a coffee grinder.

In the morning I come down, make a nespresso to drink whilst I grind the beans to put into the cafetierre. It has to be really strong.

I then go to Costa to get another coffee on my way yo work, where I sit and drink more coffee.

Sorry, I just want to be accepted by you guys as a coffee drinker!

Yes Yesok you’re fine, join the club!

However, to prove your sincerity to the god of caffeine (a huge coffee bean we pay homage to) you have to do 6 shots of espresso with us as witnesses.

Ha ha, love it, Islington.

Upton Park is in the East London. The hammers don't play there anymore. But, there are plenty of places to go there. I don't really go to that pat of town.

 

[Oldermom935]

Glad I got that out!

OK, it's 6.45 here, and I will require sleep tonight. Not that I want to get a lot.

I fully expect to be able to hear your racing heart after the 6th cup all the way out here in Canada

Milk,cream,sugar,lemon,honey..lol

If I was having a cuppa with you Renee I wouldn't need any honey.

Lmao!!

That is how I look after the 3rd cup (minus the dress—at 6’4 I don’t think it would fit)

All hail!!

We’re not worthy

Pastries for the coffee, decaf, and tea.

 

[Sincity09]

I don’t know why but I think after work today I am going to stop and get a coffee. I have this urge and craving…for coffee.

I’m sure it’s nothing to do with 2 pages of posts mostly about coffee and breakfast foods (that pair deliciously with coffee)

You flirt!

Oh dear god my poor sweet tooth and non existent self discipline. I may need some quality alone time and a cigarette after, and I don’t even smoke…

The custard slice is my favourite at 3oclock.
