Taken from Lorne and everybody else.

1) Ask me anything. Anonymously (I worked out how to switch that IP thingy off, even), or even privately, and I'll answer honestly.

2) Tell me something you want me to take a picture of (bearing in mind you don't want me fired or posting classified things, people) - it can be anything at all, and I'll do my best to get a photo of it for you.

I can't answer questions or take pictures of anything classified, but everything else is fair game.

well it's a good quality to have.

so what's more important, the quality of the beans or the experience in the brewing? (I ask as I happen to adore coffee so now I'm curious, is it better to invest in the best beans or to make sure my next butler has the necessary skills?)

so apart from those 6 years it's always been Cardiff.... wow, couldn't imagine staying in one place for so long! Have you never considered living anywhere else?

Thank you.

The quality of the beans. The most experienced brewer can't make up for stale beans.

I've considered it. It may yet happen. There are a lot of extenuating circumstances, though.

good to know. Any recommendation for sources of beans? money's not an object, the perfect coffee is worth it!

aren't there aways extenuating circumstances in life?!

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

Koba and arubica are best, but anything that's properly stored should be fine. Don't buy any beans that have been stored loose in a bin: go for vacuum-packed instead, and only buy as much as you'll use in a week.

Heh. I suppose there are.

[sparkingfreak.livejournal.com]

got it, thanks. I'll make sure I stick to that in future. (oh and very appropriate icon!)

ah, but the question is would we have life any other way?!

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. (I have lots of coffee icons.)

Sometimes I wouldn't mind life being a bit less interesting. Sometimes I think it's just perfect.

[sparkingfreak.livejournal.com]

so I can see, they're very pretty!

so, do the perfect times make the rather-too-interesting times worth it?

[morethanteaboy.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

Yes, they do.
