Hello everyone,
September is Coffee Morning month, with Macmillan’s official Coffee Morning date taking place on 25 September, but you can take part and enjoy a virtual cuppa with us anytime throughout the month!
We’ve created this space where we can come together virtually, enjoy some friendly conversation and share a little bit of what makes a coffee morning special.
Whether you’re joining us with a cup of tea, coffee or your favourite drink, we’d love you to get involved. You can:
There’s absolutely no pressure to bake or join in with everything, this is simply a space to connect, have a bit of fun and enjoy some virtual community company.
So grab your favourite mug, find a comfy spot and come and join us!
Hello Lizzie
Survey completed and as I am first you know my answers!
Favourite mug - one given to me by my 6’ 2” son as I am only 5’ 7”.

Best wishes-Brian.

Thanks for sharing Brian! You can't beat a good mug. I'm very particular about how I have my cup of tea and which mug I have it in, doesn't taste the same in the wrong cup!
Best wishes,

I take the preparation of coffee and cake terribly seriously. I've undertaken a rigorous training schedule by running dress-rehearsals for the big day:

Does anybody have any recommendations for favourite cakes or pastries? I'll award extra points if they're particularly exciting or obscure!
The first bru of the day has to be an Espresso….

I love the espresso set up you have going on. The first coffee of the day is always the best in my opinion
Best wishes,

….. then a Flat White in the afternoon
Is anyone a breadmaker? I made some lovely cinnamon swirl sourdough at the weekend and thought I would share it with you all. It was lovely with a cup of tea. I am baking some for my coffee morning and may do a tea and toast station.

Looks great Megan- Online Community Team do you do mail order
Thank you! It was really delicious, if I do say so myself. I'm not sure it would still be fresh by the time it got all the way to you Mike.
Best wishes,
Lizzie
