Wired mouse....I work for the NHS you know, we're not made of money!!!! (contradictory considering where I buy my coffee!). I have had to buy £10 of cables for a surgery this week - out of my own money!
McDonalds coffee +1 They are good, and consistent, which is important! Cos it comes out of a machine. Good value cos of the free coffee!!!! Subway is ok as well.
Got a Nero here as well. They use 2 shots by default. Think Starbucks do now also. No Starbucks here, but there is in Exeter...and I'm going to Exeter tomorrow!!!
I'm a Mocha fan, but there was only 1 good place (local coffee shop called Kafe Karumba) but they've shut, so I just do Latte now. Is EAT a cafe in the high street or motorway?

Mostly drink tea though
I used to have a works flat on Gt Titchfield St inkey$. Above one of our pubs - Crown & Sceptre. Great boozer and good area around there too - lots of fashionistas!!
All coffee shops are an almighty rip off. If I do succumb it's usually a filter coffee at Neros (at work any old rubbish coffee in the cupboard, I'm not fussy) Much prefer the real stuff you get on the continent from independent places. Overall I guess I'm a tea person more so. Can't be a GP and not drink endless tea all day.

You're in the licensing trade then OG? Crown & Sceptre; I know it well. Work in Foley Street opposite that pub
Occasional post work drinks in there, the Yorkshire Grey or Green Man round the back in Riding St. Love working in Fitzrovia. Always a photshoot going on somewhere, great indy places to eat or drink and hidden gem of an area to visit with friends on a weekend.Ruby - Tea is where its at although you should be far too busy for all that 'spare moment' nonsense

I am indeed Inkey$. I work on the property/estate strategy side rather than the actually running the pubs. The Green Man is also one of ours and I know the Yorkshire Grey well too. I reckon my old lounge window would look directly out on to your office then!

No it was much less grand!! My bedroom window looked out on to our mechanical plant on a flat roof!

Very true. Same experience in Nice this year - fantastic cafe au lait. Not been able to replicate that anywhere in the UK since.
