Subway is total shit so I wouldn't worry about working out how to order it.

Wtf?

Coffee should always be black. Espresso if medicinal, lungo/Americano if more volume is required.

Pastry with espresso.
Bacon sarnie with any other sort of warm beverage.

Subway all smell the same. Odd.

Fatdoc you order coffee in one of the three following ways:

1. Before 9 am. A cappucino please.
2. Before 12:00 A caffe latte please.
3. After 1:00 An espresso or double espresso please.

Presumably between the hours of noon and 1 the only acceptable drink is a glass of Dom Pérignon, as any gentleman knows.

No, between those hours a gentleman drinks Oolong, Darjeeling or some other fine tea.

Ok..

No further insight on this hipster thing.

I only drink black coffee, unless in france.. Where I know what I'm doing.

Thanks for the subway confirmation... That helps.

I'll just get me coat...

This is totally incorrect.

When more volume is required, the correct form of request is " May I have a Double Espresso, please my good Barista, with a Double Espresso on the side and a Double Espresso chaser".
Followed by "Again, please, good sir/madam".

. Subway.

No feckin idea what or how I ordered the produce.. Or indeed what it was.

the 14 yr old and her friends like Subway for some reason and occasionally I meet them there for in my lunch break during the school holidays

I, like Fatdoc, have no idea how the ordering system works. I take a huge amount of delight in over-acting this - making sure to be in front of the kids. I'm developing the character along the lines of Mr Bean and Basil Fawlty

Good effort. I've already been shouted at for the boiler pressure being too low and to poach some eggs sharpish.

Is it too early to start drinking?

It's December and the date begins with a 2, isn't it pretty much round-the-clock drinking from now until January.

I'm on the train back from Leeds (10.26 to Skipton). I arrived in town at 09.28. In the intervening time I have completed all the Christmas shopping I had to do. BOOM! It's all in the planning.
