Fresh coffee for me is a great experience. It just does something to me.
I found the next thing I want for my kitchen - a Gaggia Espresso Machine!
The cost would be be well worth it when I think about the amount of money I spend monthly or even over the period of a year on my specialty coffee drinks.
Maybe some one will get a Gaggia Espresso Machine for my Christmas??

My Son Would Like To Do This To His xBox 360
Unfortunately right now, my son's XBox 360 has gone off for repair. 10 months old and the DVD drive appears to have failed (wouldn't happen to an Apple would it??)
Thankfully it's still under it's original warranty, so a couple of weeks from now it'll be back.
One thing I think he'd like to do at some point would be to customise his Xbox 360 with a new skin but perhaps it's just as well he hasn't done that so far as it's gone off for repair, and I wouldn't like to think that Microsoft would have any excuses to reject the warranty work.
He misses that machine you know...

Chuck Makes A Great Christmas Idea
Christmas is fast approaching and I've seen a few websites displaying what they think is going to be the hottest Christmas gifts for kids this year.
One site that caught my eye, but as yet I haven't seen this toy in any top tens, was this one about Chuck My Talking Truck
This guy looks great fun.
What surprised me most was this is a Tonka toy. I remember these being "tough" toys when I was young and really aimed at toddlers. I had a big yellow dumper truck from Tonka that was just brilliant. It was big yellow and made of metal and was so strong it practically lived in my back yard in amongst the gardening tools.
Chuck looks like he would be a lot happier indoors having a nice chat with your toddler and keeping them entertained for hours.
Chuck could be the surprise perfect gift for toddlers this Christmas!

Brinkmann Grills Make Me Hungry
I came upon a site about Brinkmann Grills today, and although I've never really heard of these before (maybe they are big brand in the US?) reading through some of the information made me both sad and hungry at the same time.
Why sad?
Well here in the UK right now the clocks have changed to reflect the end of Brittish Summertime. In fact today is Halloween. So the thought of eating out doors and using a Brinkmann Grill just made me realise that I was looking at a website at the wrong time of the year.
This site was raving about how good the taste of the food you could cook outside. That made me think about how summer was gone. That made me sad.
I also got very hungry!

The stuff I find
I'm always on the web.
Sometimes others say I'm addicted to it.
Maybe they are right - I'm always on it. There's just so much to see, read, share and enjoy. What a great invention!
The post on this blogg will probably seem a bit random and not really follow any theme or pattern, so if my blogging here confuses you, I'm really sorry.
The trouble is, my brain behaves like a web browser these days, jumping from idea to idea, driven by insatiable curiosity. And the internet is just the perfect place for it.
So forgive me for my random posts and ramblings, but enjoy all the same.
