But that was only cos it came with a cream and jam scone, I'd run 10 miles and it was as hot as Hades so I was dehydrated. Tea is ok for quenching thirst I suppose, but I love the taste of coffee.

Very tasty, refreshing, not tinny (like Tetley) and organic. Definitely going to have to invest in a coffee machine for the staff room. I drank an entire cafetiere of coffee this morning in lieu of the Nescafe hit this afternoon, although tbf, she did make it a bit stronger with less milk, the wee soul. Not sure why people give a shit about the fact someone took the time to stroke their ego by telling the inhabitants of this thread that it's pretentious.
