Coffee pot

I went into the office today. There was nothing in the building I especially needed to be around for, and it was much quieter than I expected. It was nice to be out and about even on an overcast morning. The barista in Caffè Nero is now remembering my order. It’s always nice, but possibly an indication that I am too predictable or safe when it comes to coffee choices.

On the way into the office, I passed this advertising billboard. I think the colours stood out, but the three-dimensional kettle was impressive. There are more and more of these kinds of adverts: are they getting cheaper to build, or are they needed to stand out?

The main reason I ventured to White City was to say goodbye to K who was leaving. Although technically, she left once before and came back to help out for a short period. We joked that she’s now left the company more times than I have. Because it’s her second departure, she wanted to keep the event small, so it was only her immediate team and me invited. I felt very honoured. A lovely time was had. A lot of bubbles were drunk.
