Gnomon - time to move on

You stand accused of having served 'instant cappuccino', made with a sachet of powder and boiling water.

How do you plead?




Just got my coffee maker back in action after being without it for a whole day.

Guilty as charged, but I quite like the instant smiley - cappuccino variations you can buy here. They satisfy my cravings for hot chocolate which I have at times.

I remember getting instant coffee with spray-on cream on top once in Greece.

Uggh, that sounds smiley - yuk

I never liked instant coffee, although I recently found out that there is a brand (which shan't be named) which actually isn't bad.

Instant smiley - cappuccino doesn't claim to taste like smiley - coffee, so that's OK. smiley - smiley

kelli - ran 2 miles a day for 2012, aiming for the same for 2013

Guilty but with the following mitigation:
I only ever did it once guvnor, before I bought my coffee machine. I vowed I would never, ever do it again and threw the rest of the box away. I have never touched it since, even during the 6 months our machine was out of action awaiting a part to travel from Italy via a system that, given the time it took, must have involved handing it to anyone who looked like they were going in the right direction.

I admit to my crime, and await punishment.

Glad you've got yours back online smiley - ok
