Costa.


Hungry son this morning, he likes porridge so we pop into Costa on way. Go to the counter and ask for porridge, the bloke gets a pot noodle type plastic pot with a peelable lid, and pours hot water into it.

This seems a bit different from Pret and the like, but we go with it...

Have a taste and think this is very sweet, read on the side 17g of sugar for that small tub. Full ingredients: porridge flakes, dehydrated milk, sugar....

Costa, WTF is wrong with you? Won't be back.

Porridge flakes? WTF are they? Porridge is a dish you make from ingredients. It's not the bloody ingredient. I'll bet the reason is that they're not 100% oats; they'll have been milled with some cheap sawdust filler.

Costa is full council anyway. It's to coffee shops what carvery jobbies are to restaurants.

You can't high-horse about Costa and then admit you go to Pret(entious). Pret has far, FAR more ish food than Costa.

If I had my way I'd wait til Saturday lunchtime, then padlock the doors shut (on either/both establishments) and set the buildings on fire. 2 birds and all that.

Yeah because if there's one thing that chavs are noted for, it isn't Adidas trackers, it isn't nasty tattoos, it isn't double barrelled surnames, it isn't benefits or a mattress in the front garden.

No, it's being picky about their coffee.

If she was up to those kind of things with me then in 18 minutes I'd have banged her about 36 times, from past experience with the laydeez.

She'd have walked out looking like a plasterer's radio.

Council isn't directly linked with chav. Critiquing someone's preference for a certain beverage as though there's some sort of hierarchy is misplaced elitism and therefore council.
