Again we are restarting this thread as the Cafe was getting Mingy and filthy, not to say the quality of the drink and food.



The new Cafe has been fumigated, polished, redecorated, swept and restocked with food and drink.

As ever John you've done a superb job.

Not one for the faint hearted, but one that has to be done from time to time.

Ooo, I like this new toy John.
Perfection every time, and a lot smoother to operate than the old one, which was probably getting near the end of its life....

Good evening to you, Jeremy.

Good to hear John. :-) Weather has been really weird on my side of the USA. This winter we haven't had much snow, which is always needed. I'm hoping in the coming weeks we get more, I want to see our lakes remain as full as possible, as all our water comes from a couple of them. That and our fire season will be crazy if we don't get some moisture down on the ground.

Anyhow, back to doing some cleaning, trying to catch up with what my wife left me. Dishes and the rest of the laundry. LOL

Hi Jeremy

Looks similar here.

The Government are meeting about a potential water shortage our side of the UK as we have had two dry winters needed to restock the resevoirs.

I hope we don't have a hosepipe ban, I've got spuds to water.

Never understood how the UK can have a hosepipe ban. Have they not looked at a map, whe're surrounded by the stuff.
Sure it's a bit salty, but in this day and age that shouldn't pose a problem.

I think a cup of it would be a bit more salt than the recommended daily amount. So a few de-salinisation plants and jobs a good 'un.

Sure, it uses quite a lot of energy, but there's plenty of that around too. In fact, a tidal energy powered desalination plant seems quite appropriate.

Left to its own water from that source would probably be able to desalinate itself - Or something less pleasant

I don't know about you, but I could do with a strong coffee laced with something even stronger.

Warning - you may get a caffeine shock.

A cuppa diluted plutonium 238 each day would wake you and allow you to see in the dark

I wondered why this morning's coffee had a metallic after taste - then I saw what was left of the spoon...
I'm not saying it was strong, but the spoon was somewhat miss-shapen, and eroded...

You should stop using silver plate and be like us commoners and use stainless steel.

Ah, that's what I did wrong - grabbed a stainless one in the hurry to get the caffeine up to working levels, should have gone for one of the pure silver ones...
