Who mentioned a deal as fact? Nobody did so why say that?
You've been watching too much election nonsense.

Why wouldnt the CEO be in Costa ?
He has to eat and drink somewhere, why not a quick brew in Costa ?

I met my ex-wife in there on one of the several occasions she was 'thinking' about us getting back together. We sat upstairs, at the front, the other side of that Upvc window. Me on the Left, her on the right. Really thought she'd come back after that one. I gave it my best sales pitch.
Nice Gruyère over the road. My old man goes in the Cheese Hamlet religiously every Saturday morning. It's as much a part of his routine as going to old trafford :-(
MCC told them to take the seating area from the pavement and so they built it on the roof. It's reserved for professional types and so you won't get passed security, I'm afraid.
So your best sales pitch was 'Fancy a Latte, Luv?'. Oh dear. Sorry and all that...
As for the Hamlet, best smell of any shop ever! Can't get served for old people hogging the counter, though.

Not sure if I should be proud or ashamed of that.

I know Catalonia is hardly renowned for it's coffee, but this would raise serious question marks over the CEO's decision-making, judgement and taste if he's taking coffee in Costa.
Meanwhile, Uwe back at City would hopefully be a more successfully romantic liaison than GDM's sadly I'll-fated reconciliation efforts (the outcome of which was clearly what ultimately was right for you I hope!).

Whether it was right for me or not depends on what side I've got out of bed in the morning. I'll always love her, but a lot of the things she'd said about us were right. We really were an odd couple, but I adored her, for reasons that I can't explain; even to myself.1961_vintage said:I know Catalonia is hardly renowned for it's coffee, but this would raise serious question marks over the CEO's decision-making, judgement and taste if he's taking coffee in Costa.

Crack open the bourbon and stick some Country & Western on.

It all makes sense now they've been running city on the Costa Coffee business model. Paying over the odds for products that ain't worth it.
If you want to sit in on a comfortable sofa with a view you have to pay more.
Sell the same coffee with varying levels of milk at different prices.
And even though it to expensive and drinking to much of the stuff will make you ill. You still keep going back for more
