How exactly are you supposed to "mince down the street", and conspicuously advertise your coffee in a branded takeaway cup, while sitting in a coffee shop?You're trying to make out that the paper cup is the defining characteristic of fashionable, overpriced coffee?
What nonsense. I don't know when the paper cup was invented, and I'm sure you don't either.
Samuel Pepys recorded in his diary on December 3rd 1663 that he had looked in at Will's and seen Dryden and “all the wits of the town” engaged in “very witty and pleasant discourse”.
(Will's coffee-house in Covent Garden. At this time there were 82 coffee houses recorded in London)
When I ask for a coffee I want a hot drink in a mug, not a multiple choice exam!

Swanning around drinking overpriced coffee isn't a modern phenomenon: but that wasn't the point that Woodbine was making.

You must be Northern?
Yeah I saw someone the other day wearing these 'jeans' things and a coloured top!It's all a load of marketing boll0x. Coffee has been hyped up to hook gullible townies with too much money. They think that mincing down the street with a paper cup of ridiculously over priced coffee is the thing to do. But they're just sheeple, following everyone else.
Yes, North Surrey !

Nowt wrong being able to fit in a pair of skinnys. Now that my sprogs are as big as me they're getting all my cast-offs too. There is a method in my madness.Was that you in your skinny jeans, nosey, to go with your skinny decaff fairtrade latte? Shuffling along with you 'builders cleavage' hanging out the back?
Still, must say you have a sense of humour. You'd need it with a get up like that.
