Coffee snobs don't drink that stuff. They drive half way across the city
to the latest coffee snob place.
And in Melbourne I bet all the best coffee shops are in areas served by
trams!. Damm those trams getting between me and my latest designer coffee.

A cafe opened near my place about 6 months ago. It must be on the coffee
snob circuit. Since then on weekend mornings we get a succession of cars
parking out the front of our place while the 'duck over the road' and
get a coffee. The neighbour that use to park there (as they can't
outside their own place) doesn't get a look in now.
And if by some miracle the neighbour does get the spot, the coffee
runners park across our driveway. (Which isn't normally actually a
problem, my driveway is full of boat).
