The sun has been shining all day and it’s been perfect to grab a coffee and sit outside whilst pouring over the Sunday papers. It’s also time that I start getting my weekly Sunday post back up a running.

Things I’ve loved this week: Kopi Coffee

I want to do a more in depth post about coffee later this week but for now let me just say that Java Jampit is amazing!! I’m not much of a coffee drinker really (I’m more of an Earl Grey chick) but Kopi graciously sent me a pack of their Java Jampit Estate UTZ Certified Arabica and now I’m in love. It had hints of orange and chocolate and the smell is gorgeous! If you’re not aware of Kopi yet then check out their website.They are a new monthly coffee subscription service.For just £8.95 per month (it’s cheaper if you sign up for a 3/6/12 month subscription) you get a different bag of coffee from around the world delivered straight to your door each month.

This tweet just about sums it up…

If you consume bad coffee you are likely to completely miss the point of life it’s self.

Bloggers! If you have a turnover of less than £2m and fewer than 10 employees then you’re going to be exempt from the new press regulations. Good news for 99% of bloggers I think. Although, just because you’re exempt it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use your common sense before posting!
