  Man City will win the title this season, as stats don’t lie...
  Plus why the others won’t.

  usually get mine from the ginger pig, for some reason they are the only ones relatively close to me that do ham hocks.
  I have an unsmoked one in the freezer, which I shall cook in the next couple of weeks, once we get back from barcelona..

  also, if I haven't asked in here already, barcelona eating recommendations, staying up in gracia..

  Thanks really interesting, I remember hearing about the takeaway cup levy and it felt like a no brainer, as a way of incentivising customers to change their habits like the plastic bag charge..

  So was thinking about this as I sipped on a takeaway coffee, from my uppercup. With the growing awareness of the need to recycle and reduce plastic waste and to be more eco friendly, was wondering why more coffee shops aren’t offering discounts/incentives to coffee drinkers to use reusable cups.
  I know a couple that give you 20p off when you use one, but was wondering why that wasn’t standard practice, and why more don’t offer reusable cups for sale at the counter?
  @StevePeel @Matisse do you guys know why this is the case, what’s the financial case for not doing it/doing it would be?
  Is this something that the independent coffee shops start and then the larger chains take on, or vice versa?

  And what’s an acceptable % of reusable cup to takeaway cup usage which actually helps the environment.

  This is all based on the premise that takeaway cups and lids for them in most coffee shops aren’t recycled, I may be wrong in that assumption.

  That argument has been expressed many times over the past 4 years, Gary Neville has a lot to answer for.
  They’ve got mourinho for the long haul.
