Re: Things that go together
Coffee and Music DO go together :D They most certainly do. J. S. Bach performed regularly in a local coffee house in Leipzig, and wrote a miniature comic opera known as the "Coffee Cantata". ...with an enchanting aria in which the music depicts the delicious scent curling upwards from the...

Re: Missing Cafe' Members
Me too -- still. I'm staying in York this week with my wife for a family visit and some sightseeing. Today was (I think) the first warm, sunny day this year, and I've been out in my black walking skirt (The North Face).Fred in Skirts wrote: ↑Fri Oct 27, 2023 7:40 pm I am still wondering what happened to SINNED aka Dennis from York UK.

Re: skirts for men
No problem with them except one, I just cannot see why there is a fixation on "skirts" being made exclusively for men. The original was called, ISTR, the Unaligned Skirt -- and although it was designed to interest men, it wasn't aimed exclusively at them. I have one of each of their three...

Re: Cash or plastic?
"If there is a transactional cost for handling cash", then it stays in local wages, not going to enrich the bankers. That's wishful thinking, I'm afraid. A trader taking cash must count it up laboriously each day, using the procedures outlined by pelmut above, as well as checking the sums...

Re: Subscription services irony
For me, an EV would not be cost effective nor efficient. My car, a 2001 model year Mercury Marquis, built in November of 2000, gets 17-20 MPG on the highway. In town, I average 16-17 MPG. 18 gallon fuel tank. My Suburban, a 1997 model year, built in October 1996, gets 18-21 MPG on the highway and 1...

Re: Cash or plastic?
A fact that card refusniks often overlook is that handling cash involves costs and takes time: it all has to be counted, accounted for and carted round to the bank. A few years ago I was involved in installing the Square system mentioned by Moon, for a club's self-service bar. It's based on a graphi...

Re: Weather in your location ?
The other day MOH and I celebrated our 55th Wedding anniversary, but before that we did all sorts of things together which were the training ground for our eventual long relationship. We clocked up our 52nd this week, though I've taken to kilts and skirts only in the past six or seven years. So lon...
