The ‘Rich Italian’ (ground coffee), has run out; I am hoping my lovely wife will be able to make do with a poor Englishman for the time being. Thankfully we have plenty of other types of coffee to keep us going for the foreseeable future. So, we have bread, milk, a variety of foods, each other (you’ve gotta have love), loads of books, and………COFFEE!

We all have a vice or two – one of mine is coffee, I love it. So when we get down to about three weeks worth remaining, that will be when I start to get the cold sweats. I hope it doesn’t come to that, and I’m sure it won’t; but, I am writing about it, so it is obviously in my mind. It seems I am inadvertently preparing to panic when the time is right. As long as I plan well, that panic point will remain beyond arms reach, and there, I hope it will stay.

So, whether it is bread, chocolate, beer, whisky, tea or coffee, a rich Italian, or a poor Devonian – in these difficult and challenging times, make sure you are able to enjoy a little of what you like.
