    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    Thread has sadly stopped since we lost Grant.

    Slightly random anniversary present from my wife was a selection of coffee beans - these are the first to try - never even knew Japanese coffee was a thing!



    Not sure, supposed to be 5/5 strength, but certainly doesn’t taste it, and no bitterness. Will need a couple more cups to decide if I like it or not.

    Good to see this thread continuing.

    Afraid I won't be able to contribute much, as I'm quite content with Illy ground coffee made in a Mokka pot.

    Yes, good to see the thread continue, Marco and Grant were always big users in the past, as I use a Nespresso machine, as it suits me , I have never really posted.

    I boycott all Nestlé products - an awful unethical company.
