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!
Sorry but all those options up there -

I had to Google what a garibaldi is! They don't look like my cup of tea to be honest, but if they're your favourite i promise I won't judge

Hello Lizzie
I can understand if you have never seen/tried a Garibaldi as I have noticed in some supermarkets they are as rare as rocking horse pooh!
The current Mrs Millibob (see my play on words - current - well we have been married 47 years! - I think she's a keeper) makes her own Garibaldi biscuits for me and I must say they are better than the shop ones!
Kind regards - Brian.

Brian, you're amongst good company, I LOVE a Garibaldi. Always have done.
Unfortunately gluten free Garibaldi are even rarer, so I can't have them any more. I suppose I could have a go at making some!
Anyone else got a favourite biscuit which isn't on the chart?
I have always loved a plainer biscuit like a shortbread or Rich Tea, but the ultimate has to be the Nice!
I am loving our first virtual month long coffee morning. I am making the most of it with with a piece of carrot and walnut cake.
How do you like your cuppa? 
Take a look at our tea scale below and tell us in the comments - I'm personally E2!
