Sir - I was disturbed to read the Gema Bate’s Fair Point in the Worcester News on Monday 21 July, headed why choose a cuppa over a cool cola?
Amongst other ideas Gema advocates caffeine-free diet cola as an alternative to hot drinks during the summer months.
Her suggestion has problems, the artificial sweeteners in Diet Cola can have a very negative impact on the body and I would not recommend drinking too much.
However, I may have a solution. After the air conditioning has been fixed, the reporters and journalists will need to insist that their editor employs their very own Barista, who will be able to prepare for them fantastic hot coffee and tea in the winter months and refreshing iced coffee and tea during the summer.
Problem solved.
