OMG. He can mess about with tariffs on cars, but coffee - FFS! Recent tariffs on coffee imports have impacted the price of coffee in the US. Ranging from 10% to 46% on imports from major coffee-producing countries, they are expected to increase costs for US importers and roasters. #coffee #trump

Coffee in Calpe early this morning. It came piping hit, which reflects the mostly north European clientele. Spanish don't seem to mind a cooler cup. #coffee #spain

Great to see some funding news from the robotics sector as Capra Robotics bags a cool 11.3 million euros. That's a decent pot of money for a seed investment round and will help the company revolutionise the use of mobile robots. Leading the round were Supernova Invest and Promus Ventures.

Backdrop for today's coffee. You have to hand it to the French, they are a bit spoilt when it comes to architecture.

Just read somewhere that Spain has the fifth largest number of IKEA stories, 30. France is fourth at 36, China at 37, US at 52 and Germany, 55. Oddly, Sweden comes in at 8, with 21. No wonder the world is starting to look the same.
