We need our share of global warming

I will check someday. We're now drinking these pads. They are not very cheap (I always get them when they are on sales btw) about € 0,08 per pad.
The machine costs about € 100,- and the last one lasted 10 years.

We have the pods here but the good ones are not that cheap,  at least 40p each here.    Not sure if anything has changed but some years ago when they started to get popular there was outrage on how bad for the environment they were as they cant be recycled.

Apparently February was one of the hottest weve had on record,  unfortunately that also meant the wettest and windiest.

Understood. If she gave you warning you might not go.

Now I wouldn't get away with that sadly.

I'm not referring to those pods. These have some kind of paper pad.
Here they are called 'senseo'.

PS, the sills are 'done'.
Meaning, they are all cut to size and I used the router to give them a smooth edge.
I started with the support pieces that I will put underneath all of them. They are almost done, but I had to make some difficult miter cuts and wanted to do that when I was fresh.
Next job will be fixing them and making the reveals and giving the sills a protective coat.
Very happy with how they turned out.

Ah I looked them up,   the shops sell those bags of coffee under other names to use like teabags or in a dripper cone.  The branded ones are on amazon but they are 30-40p a pad.

Well done,   it's nice when things go to plan.

Absolutely.
I'll post some images when there is something ready for sharing.

Ok, here they have a machine for them. Not very expensive and it's quite good coffee (the good brands)

Theres a few places where you can get the machine here but they are not pushed by the supermarkets and shops like the Tasimo and Nespresso.

I think this is (mainly) a Dutch thing. As it was created by a cooperation between Douwe Egberts and Philips. (both Dutch)

We have both companies here,   infact I used to drink a lot of Douwe Egberts when I first started to work.
