In the Cathedral of Consumption

I am rather proud to say that I bought nothing, having planned for just a coffee and a read, but seeing the long queue I just filled a Cafe Nero paper cup with some of the Cafe Nero tap water from the jug by the Cafe Nero cutlery stand, sat down on a nice soft Cafe Nero sofa, read for about an hour, forgot all about the plan to buy a coffee, and then it was time for this sinner to leave, while asking my lady, 'Did you buy anything?', to which she replied, 'No.'

Shocking confessions.
