  1. snob might be a slightly harsh call dave…

    after all, I don’t call you a snob for refusing to eat poo. It’s a similar situation…

  2. believe it or not guthers… i’ve been known to eat some deer poo at port hacking for a dare!!!

  3. is it tuesday??

    i might go an do some work in a cafe this arvo…

    which cafe should i go to?

    starbucks???

    hmmm….

    maybe gloria jeans?

    what do you think guys?

  4. as long as all you’re doing is working dave – they have comfy chairs – just stay away from their dirty poo water.

    I’m not aware of any ‘good’ cafes on the coast as i haven’t spent much time scoping it out. Isn’t there a roastery just down the road from erina high?

    anywhere to get a good coffee on the coast andy?

  5. you’ve eaten poo dave? how did it taste?

    you are officially qualified to answer the age old question… poo flavoured ice cream or ice cream flavoured poo?

    hmmm… dirty poo water!

    i mainly go to erina fair… and they are all basically chain coffee stores. there is a roasting place i think it’s called caesars – i’m not allowed in – they only let in the coffee snobs!

    anywhere to get a good coffee on the coast andy?

    there’s some good little places in gosford and east gosford… as well as avoca… some okay stuff in terrigal…

  7. ice cream flavoured poo all the way!!!

    the key to eating is taste… junk food is pretty bad for you – but it tastes great!!

    poo might be bad for you – but hey – if it tastes like ice-cream!!!!

    the deer poo? it was okay… it was almost like eating grass… i figure that they are grassavores…

  8. but I take disgusting medicine cos I know its good for me… I think I would rather eat something that tastes bad rather than something that had come out someones bottom.

    Interestingly though, I think it depends on the poo-er. I would never eat human poo, but if we discovered a new exotic mammal that did little mr whippy flavoured poos i might be inclined to give it a go.

  9. Sorry Guthers, can’t help you with where to get good coffee on the coast. It’s over 10 years since I lived there and coffee tastes in society generally (as well as my own obvious level of coffee sophistication) have increased markedly in that time!

    But I’m sure there’s decent outlets at Erina or Terrigal other than Starbucks or Gloria Jeans. The last time I decided I’d give GJ’s a go again, I greatly regretted it!

  10. Speaking of trying to get a good coffee on the coast, I had one interesting encounter at a restaurant probably about 8 or 9 years ago. After dinner the waitress came round to get orders for tea or coffee. I said “a flat white please” to which she replied “yes, but tea or coffee”!! My reply then was, naturally enough, “just make it a glass of water then thanks!”.

  11. just had a coffee with desmond in gosford at a place that i think might meet the approval of you both…
