      :-D Glad to please! There was a little girl Who had a little curl Right in the middle of her forehead. And when she was good She was very, very good But when she was bad She was horrid! I try to be very very good but bad seems like so much more fun! ;)

      My Angels are the same. Normally quite good but when they are naughty it is mostly in a cute and lovable way. I'll have to stop calling Maximus my baby now as she hit the big 1-0 yesterday and is now "grown up" [her words not mine].

            I feel your pain, Chris, having done the same a few times. Try sucking on yesterday's filter and grounds; it helps a bit, while waiting for the second pot to brew.

              Porridge done, coffee maker has stopped burbling, computer on, 150 emails from last night freshly baked and ready to be dealt withanswered, and so on to coffee assembly phase: sugar, coffee, milk. Except the coffee looks a little thin. Thin as in, it's just hot water. Maybe adding some grinds to the filter would help improve the flavour :doh:

              Most programmers I know in the US prefer either 1)Mountain Dew, 2) Diet Mt. Dew, 3)Diet Coke, 4)Diet Red Bull. Coffee is for those in the accounting department. :-D

              I know I have to update this. Had to delete all previous posts to my blog because of husband. Long story. NO you don't want to know.

                  The reset switch is permanently held down, until released by caffeine.

                            One morning in the army I rushed to the lavatory with the rest of the herd, found a free sink and start washing my teeth in a hurry. The toothpaste tasted awful but awful things are standard for the army, then I shaved and left. It wasn’t before my face started burning when I realize I’ve washed my teeth with the shaving cream and shaved with the toothpaste.

                                  I'm starting to wonder how the Army packages their toiletries. My husband will use my shaving cream when he runs out of his, but I've never heard of someone using shaving cream on their teeth!

                                  Blargh.

                                    I assume it's like Red Bull, but I think that is pretty ubiquitous across major countries. I'm still trying to convince people in my area that vinegar and salt crisps are not a product of the devil.

                                    Eventually.

                                          When home, we have a very good system. Mrs Wife usually rises before me and goes and puts the kettle on for her tea and switches on the coffee machine. I then have 5 minutes to get up and find the coffee. I only drink espresso and so have to wait for the water to heat up to make a coffee. I make my coffee, then start getting breakfast ready. By the time we have breakfast I have my second coffee and the world swims into order.

                                          In my house, Mrs. Wife expects the coffee maker to be set up with her recipe when she arises, long after I have left for the mines. She only needs to press a single button to start the brew. If said coffee maker is not, in fact, set up properly, I will be called. Several things, none of them complimentary.
