Same same, Cea.
I've posted previously about "personal responsibility", and it's become a bit
of an issue over here, because now a drunk can't sue anyone if they get
injured whilst they are drunk. Common sense prevails at last!!
As to pointing, one thing that we were taught in the Army is that when you
want to point at someone, you tuck your thumb down into your palm and use all
remaining 4 (if you've got them!!) fingers together. *Never* a single finger,
as there's only one finger pointing forward, but 3 pointed back at you :-)
But onto coffee......... we watched an episode of Mecurio's Menu about Byron
Bay....

He visted a coffee plantation in the hills outside BB, and spoke with the
owner who said he'd taken some of his coffee to Kona, and rekoned that some
of the Kona people who tried it said it was just as good, if not better than
theirs!!
