So this morning, the power a EID Towers went out. Top Multi-Million Dollar shysters Xcel Energy told me that it would be a full four hours before power was restored.

So, being the committed writer chap I am, I packed up my iBook in my old kit bag, and sauntered over to the Wash Park Coffee Company with my neighbour Mark, who was also all out of power, and in as dire a need for coffee as I was.

So, here we are, sat in the WPCC, with fine coffees, pain au chocolat and smalltalk with the ladies of WPCC. It's a hard life.
