„You will find the Mugg and Bean coffee shop in all Shopping Malls, but the one I enjoy the most is at Somerset Mall or Waterfront. You have to try there muffins, or cheesecakes (which one slice can feed two) or even there pancakes (which are huge), there breakfasts will fill you up and well I could go on, they are worth it if you are feeling hungry and it is really value for money.“

BBC - Coventry and Warwickshire Features - Perfect festive wine
„"It needs to be kept airtight then you can pour it off through a coffee filter - you can't make a mistake, just do it," he said.You can't keep it in a decanter for too long, just one week means it loses a lot of its flavour complexities, so you do really need to have a decent amount of people around.Even though Christmas is now dominated by cream liquers after dinner, Phil urged that whisky should not be forgotten - and there are few things better than a decent single malt.As an after dinner malt, Laphroaig is a top selection (and a nice present, if the family are reading), which starts at £22, and The Glenrothes is another excellent Scotch - the 1989 bottle is particularly recommended.“

„In colder climes, however, a cup of English Breakfast Tea with a slug of Scotch is very nice; we have it on good account that it ends up tasting like rich fruit cake. Rooibos tea is only grown in South Africa, but it has been described by one Researcher at least as 'the miracle of the century'. It can be drunk hot, cold, with/without milk, sugar and lemon. But this is not a reason to call it a miracle.“

BBC News | Business | Asda sends ham producers packing
„A judge ruled that although EC regulations gave Parma ham a protected "designation of origin", they did not include the strict Italian rules on slicing and packaging. The ruling is a victory for Asda in its battle with the powerful Parma ham trade association, Consorzio del Prosciutto di Parma. A victory for AsdaAsda celebrated its win by setting up a Parma ham stall on the pavement outside the court in London with a placard describing the case as "the barmy Parma drama." According to Italian law, the ham must be fully prepared for sale in the Parma region of the Po Valley under the control of the Consorzio, which has police-like powers to enforce compliance with the rules.“

BBC News | BUSINESS | Germany's feeling the pinch
„Germans have not benefited from tax cuts "You can't blame the government wholly because they have introduced structural tax reforms which have helped (to stimulate the economy) but were largely cancelled out by the high the oil price," says Mr Hausen. Germany's main trade union body, the Deutscher Gewerkschaftsbund (DGB) agrees. "The government has done everything it can within the confines and can't always stimulate the economy because you have to be careful the deficit doesn't get too big," says the DGB's chief economist Wolfgang Scheremet. "The weakness is not because of any mistake of the government's but due to high energy costs and the global economic downturn." German stimulus Last year the Schroeder government restructured business and personal taxation by limiting corporate taxes to 36% while the top band of income tax was to be cut from over 50% to 42% by 2005.“
