    Coffee collection for Shaun

    Many of you have very kindly been offering to help Shaun replenish his drastically reduced stocks of coffee over the past few days via Twitter and IM as he's been running on caffeine since last Thursday. If you feel like cheering him up and want to donate, please send your donations to the Edugeek office address below and I'll forward it onto him:

    Edugeek
    Unit 5, Albert Edward House
    Ashton-on-Ribble
    Preston
    Lancs
    PR2 2YB
    UK

    Please make sure it has a kick to it as Shaun is immune to anything below strength 3.
    Filter coffee only please. No instant.

    We're not big coffee guys here, however my NM does grow a mean line of Habereno chillies - perhaps he'd be interested in some Nescafe spiked with those?

    (Noone has dared to eat one in front of us yet, disappointingly. They are hot enough to make you willingly suckle Anne Widdecombe in hope for some fluid)

    Could I not just send money instead so he can buy the brand of choice?

    Not easily (for tax reasons). Besides I suspect the gift of 'random nice coffee' would be well received. As would cake and biscuits. Besides, you can buy coffee online and have it delvered here, and ask people like Ric and Domino what they would recommend. Although drinking coffee with Ric and Shaun often feels more like a dare than anything else. The last coffee I had with Ric had been through a rodent first!
