I realised in time that I'm minuting a meeting from 11.30-13.00 so rushed out and got a bacon & egg sub from Subway as they're the closest place. I am now sitting here with full belly rather than getting the shakes in the meeting.

And the weather is glorious - sunshine and blue sky but with enough chill that I could see my breath when I left the flat this morning. Perfect short sleeve weather!

Edited to add: Just been for lunch and Starbucks were sampling again. I do love me a free sample! I swiped one as I walked to the market and one as I walked from it - most people avoid samples on principle because they think the person is going to grab their wrist and make them something afterwards - so the girl gave me a big smile when I came back.

I'd never order what I sampled (cinnamon dolche con leche latte mocha blah) because I agree with the idea that the more words it takes to order your coffee, the more neurotic you are. Mine takes 3 words - black coffee please. But hey, something free and frothy in a little cup always makes my day.
