I work in catering and have never understood why anyone would pay £2.50 for a cup of coffee that costs about 15p to make. Then again, we have all paid £4 for a bottle of lager in a club or bar (except the teetotallers).

For all of you keen to start your routes early, the one down George Street Hove opens at 7am.

I buy my drinks in glasses or cups, you can get more in that way.
I realise this joke doesn't really work because you've used a capital letter, but it's still worth a shot eh?

I read about this in the paper earlier, its because they are competing against McDonalds and a coffee house of which i can't remember the name?

I saw this as well. I'd always buy a drink in a spoons, purely because they are usually too valuable to risk being barred from.
Right, off to get my 49p cup of tea now!
Bored of the grind.

Was staying at Uttoxeter this weekend and rising early on Sunday, wanted to pop out for a paper. Didn't see one single person (or car) and the only place open was the Spoons (this was about 07:15). Did seem a bit strange, but popped in for a bacon roll and a read for half hour.
Oh, there are about 10 pubs in the very small market town, but I couldn't see anything other than Noel, bar one Count Yer Cash.
