Up early, long drive yesterday so half-way I swung in to a midlands services treat myself to a takeaway coffee.
As I picked up my major chain standard-size latte, I raised an eyebrow as the smiling attendant greeted me with "Anything else? Okay, that'll be just £4.40, please".
Surprised, I later googled "price of a coffee", £4.55 for a latte on Uber Eats (London).
Milk, coffee and electricity all trading far lower than 2022.
£5 coffee not far away.
Later that day I bomb past the same services, retreating back to farm, grateful for my bulk-buy tea-bags and own farm milk at less than a hundredth of the price...
