Are there many coffee addicts on here ?
ben lightfoot replied to gensetsteve's topic in General chat
I love my coffee, im bad for stopping at a costa if its on route but i think its because of last year i had a stint in america for a month and everyday i drank coffee and beer. My heart now lies with dunkin donuts, america runs on dunks and so does ben lol -
Nice felling but dont become another statistic especially with the amount of accidents guys are having which can be avoided, it would seem from the pics we have seen you have a great skill that has been passed down to you and would be a great shame for you to not then pass these things on. Sorry if it seems a bit morbid but i hope you get the point. Still great work though
