Their clam chowder is passable but they don't serve it very often

Yea, what's with that smug label, Steve? That's soooo last month.

Gone, thank you for asking.

I can thank my lucky stars we were able to identify them early enough to be able to take an anti-viral drug which knocked them back quite effectively.

I suffered in a minor way in comparison to others I know and what I went through was bad enough.

Very nasty ailment.

Glad to hear you are feeling better. I remember my Mum getting them years ago and suffering with a lot of pain.

Take care.

I do not drink Tim Horton's coffee - it tastes disgusting. I drive a 4km detour on my way to work to pick up an acceptable cup of coffee.

Absolutely agree... watered down shite. And have you ever tried asking for a macchiato or double expresso?

Have you considered making one yourself before you leave for work?

That would take away the retail therapy angle of the pleasure.

Do I have a Tim Hortons T shirt ?...........Yes
Do I have a Tim Hortons travel mug in my truck ?...........Yes
Does Tim Hortons Coffee suck ?.........Yes
BUT.......The coffee shop across from where I work sells Tim Hortons coffee, she is not a franchise, she does not advertise that she sells Tim Hortons coffee, but they way she makes it, it actually tastes good, the coffee shop has an RO plant and a water softener, so the water is good so that is probably why it tastes good. I have heard that Tim Hortons coffee taste depends on water quality. But hats off to the company for putting a Tim Hortons in Kandahar for the Troops.

Thankyou Newshoney - that is absolutely true! I have always been very lucky to find alternative places for coffee - Donut Diner (chain) in Niagara, Casa Cappuccino in Barrie (makes AWESOME coffee!), Bakin' Donuts (chain) on PEI and, sad to say, Irving here in Digby. They do good flavoured coffee....
