I have very many happy memories of the time I spent under Mrs Sergeant's musical tuition; she was much nicer than that awfully snobby Bridges woman further up Avenue Parade.

Didn't you leather knickerbockers chafe against the piano stool?

For the benefit of a couple of our cynical members can you confirm if you sell spam or not

is it child friendly?

It would appear that Cafe Wars have broken out in downtown Accy. However, never having visited any of these aforementioned establishments, could anyone advise if one is served by fully trained Baristas? One finds it so difficult to get a decent cup of Kopi Luwak (decaff) these days so I would be tempted to pop in to one of these places if someone could confirm in the affirmative that one's favourite coffee is not only available, but correctly served.

Margaret Pilkington · 08-07-2010, 19:31

I think you would be out of luck on that one Tealeaf.......I don't think the population of Accrington are ready for such sophisticated tastes......but you could phone ahead and give them the opportunity to provide you with your favourite brew. but I guess that you might have to tell them exactly how you want it served. I rather fancy there is a shortage of fully trained Baristas

Tealeaf · 08-07-2010, 19:35

I shall take your advice and do that next time I'm back in Accy, which should be in about a weeks time.

Margaret Pilkington · 08-07-2010, 19:39

I like the place, and I enjoyed my little Saturday break there....and despite what Pigface says I didn't think it was overpriced......it was cheaper than, say Costa Coffee, or Starbucks.....and the personal service was prompt and efficient.

It must be good, rejuvenating pig swill she's consuming.

The 'nearly retired' person, who has 'pupils', is acting, and posting, like an immature, childish, little oik.

Bless.

Finish your Horlicks.

Time for beddy-byes.

You've got school in the morning.
