Just coffee

sir – The varying strengths of coffee (report, February 1) do not concern all of us. On Tuesday, in the café of the Tunbridge Wells branch of Marks & Spencer, the man in front of me ordered “a cup of coffee please”.

When the attendant listed the endless formats of coffee available, he said: “Whatever – just coffee.” She gave him an Americano, and inquired: “Do you always ask for just coffee?” “Yes,” he replied.

I liked that man.
