After the old forum software breaking in a way that we were unable to fix, we've migrated the site to a new platform.

Some elements aren't working as we'd hoped - some avatars didn't survive the transition, and we're still having issues with attachments that weren't added as inline images, but we're hoping to have that all sorted out soon.

Cost of a coffee - interesting statistics!

edited January 1970 in Off-topic
The average cup of joe in Moscow is A$10.68, including service, according to a new survey by the London office of U.S. consulting firm Mercer.

The rest of Europe isn't much kinder - coffee is A$7.10 in Paris and A$6.94 in Athens. New York is far from the most expensive, weighing in at a mere A$3.93.

The figures are a part of Mercer's annual cost of living survey, which covers 143 cities across six continents and measures the relative cost of more than 200 items in each location, including housing, transportation, food, clothing, household goods and entertainment. The results are used to help government agencies and multinational companies determine compensation allowances when sending employees abroad.

In Beijing, it's approximately $6.80, whereas in Tokyo, where space is at a premium, the coffee there is only five bucks.

It was no fluke that russia came second to con at the recent world latte art comp by a mere half a point!
