hot in flavour but not in temp?

I prefer coffee I can drink without burning my tongue. I hate the feeling you get left with ....

I know ... and why is it so difficult for people in cafes to understand an order for a WARM Cappuchino? why do I have to tell them to add some extra COLD milk ... its not rocket science surely??

It's very strange that there are people in Australia who've never heard of Zooper Doopers. :wideyed: It's been a staple of my diet since I was a kid. I think they sold them at the canteen in the Primary and High schools I attended so I'm reasonably sure that pretty much all my class mates knew about their existence as well. :thumbsup:

Maybe I had them before but never bothered to look at the name?

I didn't attend school here ... and have never seen them advertised ... I've bought similar things but never recall the brand name ... I would thing that name would have stuck because it is memorable ...

Game of Thrones
True Blood (first 5 seasons)

To name a few.

Just butting in for a sec..

With Suits, I've watched up to season 3 and I'm just getting into season 4 and I've found as well that I'm missing the first season. It just felt so much more.. fun? Does it get better? Also I've been scared to google anything about it in case I get spoilered but how many seasons is there, 4? Are they making more?

Well in my opinion Suits has never recaptured the brilliance of S01 and the first half of S02. If anything it's become a glorified prime time soap opera in a high powered legal setting, with relationship story lines taking precedence and sadly rehashed a million times over. *yawn*

I'm afraid that Suits it's a shadow of its former self and it doesn't look like it will get better. I'm only hanging on for the same reason I persevered with True Blood, the emotional investment I have in the characters keeps me coming back but I'm hoping for it to end soon.

S05 is starting in about 3 weeks but I can't say that I'm eagerly anticipating, it's become more of a chore than the fun entertaining show it should be.

Damn, I thought as much :( I absolutely loved the first season, in fact that season is probably my most favourite show I've ever watched. Bugger!!!! I hate when shows switch to focusing too much on relationships, I used to watch SVU all the time then it got a bit too invested in the romance side of things. Is House of Cards good? I was thinking of watching that after exams but I don't want to get attached to something that flops after a season or so again.

Also I just realised Ed's gf kind of reminds me of Scotty.
 
I love my Monday morning croissant the boss brings in - but does it have to leave evidence all over my desk?
(little things ... monday morning ...) *sigh*

weird this morning - left home - boots, layers, jumper, coat ... dropping into supermarket for office shop - coat on, wind blowing, feeling like its going to be a blustery, cold day ... came out 15 mins later - brilliant sunshine and I'm sure the temp had jumped 4-5 degrees in that short time ... sunglasses on ... regretting the jumper ... lost the coat!! was I just not paying attention and didn't notice the blue sky and because it was windy imagined it was bleak?

Monday ... sometimes you just have to get through it!
