Somebody was talking about coffee on here the other day. One of the guys in the office went home for new year and brought me a kg of roasted coffee from his mates plantation in Central Java plus 3kg of green coffee (unroasted). @PINKIE or anyone else, have you ever tried roasting your own coffee and if so do you have a machine or can you do it in an oven?

I could take it to one of the coffee roasters on the market here but not sure of the bean quality so might not be worth it. Also wanted to have a try at roasting my own.

@PINKIE going to watch the UK's first ever rocket launch into space from Cornwall tonight.

I hope he doesn't accidentally find himself trapped inside.
A friend of a friend as been working on that, been an absolute nightmare, basically took over his life for the last 4 months, nearly walked away a few times.

Was he working on the rocket or the satelites?

Just so we know who to blame if it all goes pete tong.

Found out today we make more satelites than any other country outside 'merica but have never sent one into space before.

Does this mean we can nuke peeps without America now?

Rocket, I know he's worked on space launches for nasa and counts buzz aldrin as a personal friend. Never met him myself but my mate is in awe of him, very complex but interesting character by all accounts.
