I use filter coffee from the supermarkets. No particular brand, but most are rated 1-5 for strengh, so I always pick a 5. Columbian coffee is always good for a kick up the arse, and theres also an instant espresso one that Nescafe do thats pretty good.

LMAO, My first job was like a breath of fresh air!! I do think it is important to give the kids little jobs tho, we blast the music here and i give them all cloths, the 2 youngest think it's great fun, the 11 year old moans and grumps.

My youngest brother had his first job this year - he's 20 in April!

When I were a lad, etc, etc, I had a job hand washing cars on a lot all weekend (even in winter - that gets cold!) I worked in a fish and chip shop 3 evenings a week, and then on weekend evenings washed glasses in the local pub!

But I'm not bitter

Morning All - Happy Red Nose Day etc.

I used to only have a bit of string to play with on Christmas Day and my brother and I can both ride a unicycle as we could only afford half a bike each.
