    Default Isn't it time we had another coffee thread?

    It's Friday, Wongo's asleep on his desk, I've been grumpy all week moaning about IR stuff I don't really care about, Grunt's eyes have been watering, and Wild Dingo.....

    Well tomorrow, it's going to be cool and blowing from the South West, which means that I can find a sheltered spot in the sun, and sit for hours watching the clear blue sky reflected in the still waters of the Mooloolah River (which is sheltered by all the Mangroves) and the stingrays cruising on the edge of the water, while sipping on a really strong cup of italian plunger brew with a dollop of icecream floating in the top.

    I might even buy the local rag to browse at the same time.

    Nope, I doubt that there'll be any shed time in the morning.

    Hope your Saturday coffee is going to be as good as mine!

    Cheers,

    P

    I'll be doing my usual Saturday thing, taking 2 grandkids to their soccer games.
    Be wearing a tracksuit though.

    My saturdee coffee will be a cup of Moccona as I race out the door with my nailbag over my shoulder for another exciting day of architrave and skirting. Then I'll have another cup of the same at smoko. Then I think the deck nailing idea is off, so might even pick up the paintbrush. Gave the landlord notice - moving out 30th of June. Hope we've got somewhere to move to

    Sounds tough midge...

    Mine will be the bleary-eyed version after taking my girlfriend to the airport then either finally finishing my thesis (if I am good) or getting into the shed and making a box with the Gifkins Jig (if I am better ).

    HOWEVER, I would swap either for sitting by a Qld river and watching rays float in the water. Tempted to give you a red for teasing me mercilessly...

    (actually never given one and probably never will)

    Default I'd rather have a coffee break!

    Mine will be freshly ground from Norman Dann, brewed in the swiss coffee machine to perfection and served as a creamy flat white, after a long run and full english breakfast. Cor.

    Silent - great to see that you're getting that close. Lots of work - I'm green with envy. Good luck with it all. Don't move in 'till you're FINISHED!

    I'll be sipping my coffee outside looking at what's left of the back garden after no rain, wind and a couple of frosts, rugged up to the max as that wind will whistle round the corner of the house. But once inside, it will be nice and warm as the fire will be going all day, the toilet window is finally repaired and there will be no little chilly breezes in the house any more YAYAYAYAY

    I'll also be getting ready to go back to work after 8 weeks holiday It was good, very good and I'm really glad I took the time to genuinely relax properly for once. Work has missed me and I've gotten the job I wanted with a few extra goodies thrown in as well. No pay rise, but I'm happy.

    Good luck with the house SilentC

    Poor Cam, I'll be thinking of you driving to the airport tomorrow when I'm still snuggled in bed

    Midge, well, yep, I won't deny I'm a little envious, but oh well

    cheers

    Remember I'm in Sydney - my coffee will be from a thermos (nice italian made by a nice italian coffee machine tho') in a plastic cup at the Wooding with Work show. That's got to be hard to beat

    Mine will be an espresso at Cafe Tiamo in Lygon St, while Max & I wait for wifey to have a haircut. If little Maxie is too rowdy, it will be a take away Latte in the park.

    Coffee tomorrow will be compulsory...:eek:
    I'm going to mate's place tonight for dinner & planning for the upcoming Tinaroo Raid. (Queens birthday at Black Gully)

    We will have 4 boats in our fleet this year...
    One with us in it, one with the beer in it, one with the food in it & one with the camping gear in it.
    The beer won't be in the aerolight.
    (Maybe we should have some beer in the boat we are in too. )

    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    My day starts with Breakfast followed by somewhere between 1 and 3 cups of espresso. It will be a crappy Melbourne day tomorrow. Probably go to the footy tomorrow arvo.

    My coffee will consist of beans slowly roasted on the fire of a sauna by two nude 18 year old (female, just thought Id put that in) virgins, who are giggling and giving me sideways flirtive glances.

    They will then grind the freshly roasted beans between their thighs.

    The ground beans will then be placed in a plunger and the hot steamy water from their bodys will trickle down their brests into the plunger..

    Coffee at Al's place, or go and watch the Stingrays?

    I'll go for the stingrays...

    Any girl that can crush coffee beans with her thighs scares me...
