Ah!

Yes, Captain chuks was indeed anticipating some such enhanced offer. Things are shaping up nicely for the next stage of my aviation career, yes indeedy.

In fact, at home we (well, the wife) have a top-quality Italian coffee machine of make SAECO, when I was investigating cramming same into "Ghana-must-go" and bringing it here to fit to my desert-capable Twinned Ootter. We had the machine, we had the beans but there is always a snag i.e. the extension cord for the 220v. power supply. "Back to the drawing board" as we say in aviation.

NEO, the last time the Brits got stroppy you put a tax on our tea, when serious trouble soon ensued. Now it's the Nescafé you are messing with? You have learned nothing from history, it would seem. That is to say, we Septics never really had much of an empire but if we had had then I think we would have known better than to mess with beverages for the plebs. That way lies trouble.
