The Coffee House Is OPEN! WELCOME! It's warm inside ~ please hurry in! Pete Briquette has been hard at work creating seasonal Boomtown Blends and let me tell you, they are DELICIOUS! The Counsel and I spent the weekend learning how to be baristas in Pete's classes. which were very enjoyable & fun and we're ready for the Holiday Rush!
There are very special features to the coffee house about to reveal some things to you I bet you never knew. Did you know that Bricky & Councillor Nicole are Agony Aunts? Rock 'n' Roll Agony Aunts to be specific. Agony Aunts go back to pre~Victorian times. Some Agony Aunts throughout history have kept their identities a secret, such as the Victorian~era one who advised in an 1857 edition of the London Journal, "You have foolishly lent yourself to a clandestine courtship and must withdraw from it promptly." Our Agony Aunts are bold ~ no secret identities here! Most of all, Bricky & Nikki are very, very caring and earnestly want to help all of you with anything at all in your life that that you would like some assistance with. Beginning today, you can write in to Bricky & Nikki's Coffee House with your cares, concerns, worries, and difficult, perplexing, and mysterious situations. I'm not a big fan of the Eagles but there's a line in a song of theirs I absolutely love and keep at the forefront of my mind:
SO OFTEN TIMES IT HAPPENS WE LIVE OUR LIVES IN CHAINS & NEVER EVEN KNOW WE HAVE THE KEY.
("Already Gone")
Your favorite Rock 'n' Roll Agony Aunts (the same thing as "Dear Abby" but much better!), Bricky & Nikki, are going to help you FIND and CLAIM the Key!
So, please start sending your questions in today right here to Bricky & Nikki's Coffee House and add the HASHTAG:
and Bricky and Nikki will select one or two and will give you the Keys out of where you are & into where you want to be for Christmas, 2023! How does that sound?!
One Question, Two Perspectives, One Definite Answer!
One of the most fun things taking place in the Coffee House Is that periodically, Bricky & Nikki's Coffee House is going live on WhatsApp! We'll let you know a month ahead of time when we're going to hold one so that we can get the word out &: give everyone plenty of time to sign up and begin thinking about the things you most want to talk with Bricky & Nikki about. We'll all be gathering around the fire & you can pull up a bean bag , your favorite comfy chair, or just sit cross~legged on the floor ~ whatever you like! The fire will be roaring, the company will be warm, and Bricky & Nikki are pouring the coffee hot. There's nowhere else you want to be this Winter. Welcome to Bricky & Nikki's Coffee House, Everyone!

As a young at heart 71 yr old, I would like to know how to age in reverse. Am I too old to go to Music Festivals? It is strange being the oldest one there, apart from Bob of course. My friends think I am mad. I don't believe dressing or acting age appropriately. If I ever appear at a gig wearing a twin set, tweed skirt and with a white curly perm, then it is time to stop. 😂
Dear #BrickyAndNikkiDec2023,
I started taking guitar instruction last year at the age of 62. I'm struggling mightily with chord changes. My fingers want to move sequentially instead of together. Any advice for this old bloke before I quit altogether?
Best regards,
Former Councillor Eli
Dear #BrickyAndNikkiDec2023,
Please can you help me. As I get older I don’t seem to be able to find things so easily. Whereas everything used to be in a couple of familiar boxes I find increasingly that things are being put in so many different places and rooms that I can never find what was there in front of me just recently and everything is so fragmented I keep losing track.
Is this my problem? I feel like I am the only one suffering from this sometimes. What do you advise??
Suss, London.
