Sounds suspiciously like apartheid. Or at least elitism.

In any case, do you drink coffee? Somehow I thought you didn't. Or maybe that's tea?

I don't drink coffee, however instant makes for a good flavoring in baking when making coffee flavored items....

I knew he was a "proper" actor but Becki's comment prompted me to look up Anthony Head. I didn't know he was the brother of Murray Head, who starred in Chess when it opened in London and had a hit single with "One Night in Bangkok." Anthony apparently played the same role in the same production a few years later. Apparently Giles' was one of the strongest voices (literally and metaphorically) supporting Joss Whedon's idea to do the musical episode of Buffy.

Pretty famous in the 80's. Meanwhile, I haven't heard of anyone else in these commercials, though I am dimly aware that there was a show called Buffy.

Had an iced coffee yesterday at a smart independent coffee place, and it consisted of a milky coffee with three small ice cubes bobbing around (£2.75). We often knock chains like Starbucks and Timmues, but at least they are consistent in their product.

That sounds more like a Frappé coffee that I used to drink with my Greek Salad lunches on my hols.
