Is this a new thread?
Best coffee with a view would have to be that double-espresso on Thursday morning of last week as I contemplated some 9 inches of fresh, light, fluffy powder from my vantage point in the stratosphere above Meribel; my boots done up tight, skis lying just beside me and pointed downhill.
Then again, I did rather enjoy the crap, instant coffee in a plastic beaker brought to me on a tray with cake by a student dressed in a tiger suit in the middle (9:30 am) of second-year English last month.
Oh, and let's not forget all those creamy caffé latte's the nuns in San Benedetto del Tronto so kindly prepared for me to drink at 11am once the penny finally dropped that I wouldn't be down for breakfast by 8. Ah, yes. Happy days
