me and coffee we go waaaaaaaaay back, there has been good times and bad times but even the bad times are not that bad they are in fact funny times.

yesterday i was sat in the staff room, it was 8.30 am and i was drinking my first cup of the day (the first one is always the best), all the teachers where present as we always have a small staff meeting before the start of the teaching day.

towards the end of the meeting i grabbed my cup and tried to swallow the last part of the coffee, i say tried because what happened was that it went the wrong way and i ended up spluttering my coffee all over the room, table, registers, teachers, it was like some sort of human fountain, slow motion human fountain.

some of the teachers actually screamed, never mind the fact that i couldn't breath, and i was having a coughing fit but at the same time laughing as i couldn't believe that i had committed this act.

the headteacher kept asking if i was ok and i kept laughing, i had to leave the room to wash myself (and throw myself out of the window).

i smelt of coffee all day, and my register was drenched in the good stuff.
