Coffee

My relationship with drugs of any kind has always been a bit patchy. I do smoke on odd occasions (and they are odd), and my alcohol intake is low and very specific (alcoholic ginger beer is my favourite tipple at the moment). Coffee I do like, although I've noticed that if I drink in the afternoons, I don't sleep so easily that night. Recently, my Father gave me a percolator:


It's an old fashioned way of making it; percolation steams the coffee grains and it makes a strong brew that has a smoky quality I rather like. This model is a one from Asda and it doesn't have an element, so you have to use a hob, but it's simple construction means it is reliable.
