Why bother with the dreaded decaf?

June 19, 2022June 19, 2022 / Storyteller / 2 Comments

REVIEW Years ago I started as a new manager at a firm I'd been working with. I started having panic attacks all the time. My heart was irregular or racing. I felt terrible. Terrible that I wasn't getting my head around my new role. That I was letting it get to me. I couldn't sleep … Continue reading Why bother with the dreaded decaf?

Mornings rituals

May 20, 2022May 21, 2022 / Storyteller / Leave a comment

The sun meets the harbour bright and white. I cover my eyes squinting through the rays to watch the tug boat docking by the boardwalk. "Good morning" calls out the captain as he leans out from the wheelhouse. "A bit nippy". Lady Norman tug I smile up from my scooter vigorously rubbing my hands together. … Continue reading Mornings rituals

When the coffee kicks in

January 21, 2022January 21, 2022 / Storyteller / Leave a comment

When the coffee kicks in it will be an ideal day. Is it the flavour, the aroma or the ritual? Who cares? I am alive, and ready to take on the day.

Back in the nick of time

December 10, 2021March 19, 2022 / Storyteller / Leave a comment

I just got 'back in the nick of time' today. I'd been 'galavanting around' the local cafes trying to find a coffee brand that 'piqued my interest'. Eventually I 'set up shop' in a local art cafe. I grabbed a coffee and a bit of cake, and sat and 'watched the world pass by'. Cool jazz played in … Continue reading Back in the nick of time

I love Gozleme

I was 'a bit gobsmacked' on the weekend. I scrolled through some blog posts of our local community group. In one post this bloke was 'having a go' at the lady that runs our local cafe. He was 'banging on' about how his pie was soggy. Oh 'for Pete's sake' it's a pie. Talk about … Continue reading I love Gozleme

Chin wag

May 3, 2021November 15, 2021 / Storyteller / Leave a comment

I was looking 'rough as guts' after my morning session at the gym. It's bad enough when you aren't strong enough to put your 'head in a pony' but one glance in the mirror and I balked at the idea of heading back out. I 'didn't look like anything to write home about' so wasn't … Continue reading Chin wag

Have your cake and eat it too

September 12, 2020December 8, 2021 / Storyteller / Leave a comment

Cake, it's the perfect accompaniment for a great cup of coffee when your out and about. But you know what they say 'you cant judge a book by its cover'. Not all coffee shops can 'make the cut'. Their cakes and pastries look great in the display but how ripped off do you feel when … Continue reading Have your cake and eat it too
