Okay, so maybe I was a little bit biased in my last post regarding the benefits of coffee...nothing wrong with a positive spin to start the day, is there? Maybe I’ll balance it up later, but for now a warning about emails. I am the curious type and in a mad moment of weakness and said curiosity taking hold of me, I clicked on one of those “free download e-book,” links; no obligation of course but get ready for many more similar rubbish emails- oh dear! For example: “check out this site friend”—“make $1000 per day”--“give up your day job with this money machine”—well if these guys are making so much money why would they be trying to make 10 or 20 dollars on selling the aforementioned money spinners? The obvious answer is plain to see –there are no free lunches! You can of course click on the “remove me from list” link but this only seems to create an “undeliverable” email message (and probably puts your details on more lists!). Usual coffee usual leathery sofa and the sun is already warming the pavements outside-still no rain with today’s’ mercury expected to reach 28 Celsius; scarily warm for November...socks in bed not needed yet.
Search “negatives effects of coffee”...well the bottom line on this is that more than three cups a day is not good and if you can’t function first thing in the a.m. without it then ... you need help! So there it is, all balanced up.
Oh no, my ‘favourite person in the whole wide world’ has just walked in and he’s walking over to contaminate my ‘me-time.’ The chairman of the PTA is not a bad guy but he does go on...and on...and on, until he’s completely eaten away my time with my coffee and sofa. Have I started the newsletter? Well of course Mr Chairman! Did you get photos of the talent show? Yes Mr Chairman of course Mr. Chairman- now please go away! He stays and tells me about his cat catching some virus and shedding all of its fur. I really couldn’t give a crap but he doesn’t sense my complete indifference and continues to prattle on about vets fees and the need to buy pet insurance for future diseases! I stifle a yawn and check my watch; thank the gods, it s time for me to go. Almost 8:50 as I step out of the coffee shop I breath in a mouthful of... second-hand cigarette smoke which has just come from the inside of a really attractive thirty something female; she won’t have that lovely complexion for much longer if she carries on with the burnt offerings. This is a topic which needs its own time and date...watch this space.
