Any coffee addicts out there?

Nothing beats a clear night a good chair next to the dob and a flask full of COFFEE.

Anyone else feel the same way???


Cheers

Gary

Yes particularly about the clear night.
I like coffee more on special occassions...like viewing on a clear night or a cup when out some place with someone... I do drink a lot of tea.
But I dont seem to get any clear nights...and if I do she probably will want to go out for coffee...

I like coke too but It's usually too cold here at night so a hot coffee is ideal.

I ran out of coffee last week - had the last cup before bed in the evening as you do (well..as I do anyway)

The next morning I had tea and thought nothing of it. Later in the day a head-ache started up. I had panadol but to no avail. Felt absolutely horrible.. and then it hit me that i was in cafeine withdrawal.

Yep...I'm addicted. Having one to go to sleep must be an advanced sign

Ah Greg I know exactly what you mean. Last thing at night and first thing in the morning.( I thought I was the only one that did that)

Had that headache feeling before, easily cured

I'm just glad caffine is still legal

Yes it does smell nice....

I'd rather have a nice hot cuppa tea or mug of hot chocolate than drink coffee.

I don't mind a nice hot cup of tea while I'm with the scope. Or a nice glass of Coke would also do.

But Clear Skies would also be nice.

Rats! I want one!

(and more coffee!)

Wrecks my stomach as well nbut one Nexium a day and I'm doing fine - well really just postponing that inevitable day when I (no, not give up coffee) get an operation to solve my reflux! Let them cut me up or give up coffee - easy choice!
