    Coffee

    Have any of the regular visitors to France recently seen those metal individual filters that sit on the top of your cup? I bought a couple many years ago and unearthed them today. It occurred to me that coffee machines and espresso percolators have totally taken over. Better coffee too?

    Somewhere I came across a ref. in one of the Larkins novels, with Pa (?) Larkin &c. discussing how the things always got stuck before they had filtered all the coffee through and being unsure about what to do about it...?
    It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.
