Birmingham seems just a little bit miserable as cities go.
But most cities in England seem that way to me on Friday and Saturday evenings, especially when it's overcast. I guess it's the greater density of dive bars in smaller cities that makes them seem worse. Though this really does strike me as a city without much focus on specialty stuff — one or two coffee shops aside.
I should clarify that this place advertises itself as a café and coffee school…
— Is this a washed or natural coffee?
— Uh…I presume it's washed because it's roasted, so…I don't really get what you mean, sorry. I guess it's processed in the same way as any other coffee.
FFS.
@indigo Hoping to work for that company I did that internship at in 2015, at least for a while.
@indigo Birmingham for a masterclass, then back to Edinburgh after lunch tomorrow.
Then cram in a few days of work before Glasgow for 3 days of wine.
Good thing I'm leaving London today, cousin wouldn't stop going on about the election last night.
Ordered hot wings (that genuinely weren't hot in the slightest — just slathered in sweet and sour sauce) and they came with a pack of Huggies wipes.
Wonder how long after eating they intended for me to make use of them.
