Someone has sabotaged the coffee and the decaff on our floor. Apparently an act of revenge for one of our lot poaching a bag of sugar or something.
For the last few days the coffee has reminded me of something that I couldn't quite put my finger on. Vaguely familiar....
And then it came to light - the guys from downstairs had ripped open a few tea bags and contaminated the coffee...and the familiar taste was from 'Kaleidoscope' - the café under the library at university, where all hot drinks came out of the same nozzle and after a while morphed into a kind of homogenous mixture of coffee, tea, hot chocolate and the rest - a 'Cup of Brown'.
I'd been drinking psuedo-Brown for a week, and not noticed!
