    Mmmm French roast in the morning

    Hi Leslie, See you've got good taste, A Change of Heart still remains on my all time favourite albums list. Haven't listened to any of his more recent stuff though.

    Does your job affect how much coffee you drink a day?

    No, my job doesn't effect how many cups I drink. I am self employed and work at home and so could drink as much coffee as I want. But I have a routine and always drink 2 cups of coffee and 2 cups of tea a day.

    Coffee History: Setting the Record Straight

    Actually I am an engishman despite this as my parents were both Engish. You forgot South Georgia Porgia pudding and pie, and what about the ex colony Canadanada?

    New Web Site (Old thread from 2008)

    Hi Rose, That sounds like the usual weather here in Hampshire, U.K. at this time of year, but this morning woke up to about 4" of snow cloaking the trees and garden and with brilliant sunshine. My wife and I went for a walk round a nearby lake, and whilst there was pleasant warmth from the sun...

    New Web Site (Old thread from 2008)

    Hi caffe biscotto, I'm not sure if I totally agree with you there. If it was a business website I'd be with you 100%, it has to be professional with no spelling mistakes and correct grammar. But this is a hobby website as I see it, all be it with a few ads thrown in, and is offering free...

    New Web Site (Old thread from 2008)

    Hi Pinkrose and Caffe biscotto, Good points, I agree there are translation sites that would do the job, although they also sometimes make mistakes or are unable to render vernacular sayings. But surely using those is a bit of a cop out, shouldn't josip1978 be given some credit for writing it him...

    New Web Site (Old thread from 2008)

    Hi josip1978, I liked your site a lot, it is very informative and is packed with information and some nice images which indicates a lot of hard work and research, and the site has minimal non-intrusive advertising. It is apparent that English is your second language, and that being the case I...

    Made In The Shade Coffee from Brantford Website Up

    Lisa, Liked the overall look of the site, but it was a little bit slow to load, and I agree with PinkRose, that sun with the delivery message wandering all over the page is seriously annoying. It's the sort of thing that would make me leave a site instantly.

    Too much information in a website?

    Could be many reasons, depending on site. Could be a new site where you haven't applied any filters yet to filter out ads that are directly competing with you. Could be that you accept that people have a choice and if they don't like the look of your product you at least make something when they...

    Website

    Hi Knappcap, Couple of constructive criticisms. You've used two of the real no no s in terms of web design. Firstly having a landing page which a viewer has to click to access your site, really annoys a lot of people who my leave straight away. Why not let them straight into your site and add...

    Our new website is up!

    Hi davidsbiscotti, I resized my resolution to 800 x 600 and viewed it in Firefox where I had to scroll sideways a bit to view the complete page. Didn't check it in IE which is the most common browser by a long way, but even so, FF is becoming increasingly popular and there are lots of others out...

    Our new website is up!

    Hi Fresh Roaster, Nice looking site. The only constructive criticism I would make is that if a site is designed as fixed width rather than flexible, it should at least fit into the minimum resolution it's likely to be viewed at (800px less width of the scroll bar), so as to not force the viewer...

    why is posting so scarce?

    It's certainly very, uh, yellow. Doesn't look like you've got much to learn about the coding though. Styled and laid out using CSS rather than tables. Good job.

    Coffee Tables

    Hi, If there's anyone from London or the South of England out there who is starting up a high quality coffee house and wants a quote for coffee tables, that is what I make. Visit http://www.thecoffeetable.co.uk to have a look at my work. Mods, I read the rules carefully before posting my url...

    Too much information in a website?

    Hi davidsbiscotti, I agree with the CoffeeDetective, it's whether you can find the information you're looking for or not. Nothing wrong with a site having tons of information as long as it's clearly presented and well structured with a transparent navigation system.

    Bad luck on Seattle then, if I had the chance I'd rather be living in the South of France than here.

    You wouldn't like it at the moment, it's cold, it's been p*****g with rain for about a week and it gets dark about 4.30 in the afternoon.

    Hi davidsbiscotti, I've got about 5 websites all of which I did myself. The coffee table one is still largely laid out using tables but I've since learnt (with a lot of help from those forums) how to use CSS, so some of my sites have now been converted to using that.

    Latest example of this. For years we've been told to keep out of the hot sun, wear factor 5,000 or whatever sun block because of skin cancer. Well guess what? New research from Sweden which has been confirmed by research elsewhere including the States says one of the best preventions against...

    Hi David, Oops, missed that, but still no luck on Google whether I type 'kiss of black coffee' or 'baiser de cafe noire' or even trying the literal translation 'to kiss of the black coffee'. Edit: Oh, didn't see the second line of your post, or maybe you added it on, I'll try that then. Edit...

    Where?

    Hi David, I have to confess my ignorance, and this is even more embarrassing as I speak French after a fashion as we have a holiday home in Normandy, but I have never come across the phrase kiss the black coffee. :oops: I got no results on Google for the phrase 'baiser le cafe noir' so could...

    Where?

    Hi 3ternal, I must be dense or something 'cause I'm not sure that I got it, unless maybe it's a reference to French kissing, or possibly 'French' has different connotations in the U.S. than it does here in England? The only other interpretation I can think of sounds rather painful to me...

    Thanks for the welcome davidsbiscotti. Too true, why ban something when you can tax it! If we tried to follow every report put out by medical researchers with various axes to grind we'd all end up in the nut house. For every report that comes out saying so and so is bad for you, another is...

    Where's the last interesting place anyone had a great cup of coffee? For myself, it was La Grande Place, Brussels on New Years Eve. My wife, myself, my daughter and her petit amis decided to do something different this year and hopped on the Eurostar to Brussels. I had a great cup of cream...

    Newbie Hi every one, Nick from Hampshire U.K. here. I can''t start the day without an industrial sized cup of coffee in the morning, wouldn''t function at all without it, lets hope that coffee drinking never gets to attach the opprobrium that is nowadays reserved for smokers, (yes, I love a...
