Everything, Everything

It feels like almost every time that I go away (I worked from home yesterday) I come back to discover another machine that provides hot water. This is machine number 4 since I started here, and it sounds like there have been quite a few in the past. This one is very similar to the one I originally used when I started here, before it was replaced with the completely sub-standard one and the one that copes pretty well unless you're trying to make more than 4 cups of coffee (so when everyone goes to make coffee between 9 and 10, it tends to keel over and beg for forgiveness). I think I'm going to get on well with this new one, it doesn't have fancy microswitch buttons, it doesn't try and pretend to be clever with fancy UV filtering technology, it's just a good old fashioned mechanical device, which makes it easier to obtain the perfect amount of water for my coffee. I wish we had more blue milk as it's run out, it's not even 4PM and we're almost out of green too, which only leaves a couple pints of the icky red stuff that Ian seems to like.
