Actually, this seems to be the basic need of the human heart in nearly every great crisis – a good hot cup of coffee.

Wellington coffee, what am I going to do without you?
Went to the revamped Parade Cafe today with my flatmate John, where we had very delicious coffee and wedges while staring out at rain and seagulls. A good afternoon!

Ah come now, Auckland coffee just as good! Try and get hold of Metro magazines best cafés (think it was November) feature as a start. Good One on Douglas St in Ponsonby is highly recommended. (While there, make sure you have a breakfast pie.)
Hmmm, I have trouble believing that Simon ;-) But thanks for the suggestion, I will give it a go! Breakfast pie sounds intriguing too.
