Friday Fun is here again! All you have to do is think of bands or songs related to tea, coffee, or hot chocolate!
‘Coffee & Tv‘ by Blur, Hot Chocolate , ‘Im a little teapot’ – that’s the kind of stuff we’re looking for. We’re sure that you’ll be much more creative in your choices – the more obscure the better!
Don’t forget to send the link to your friends to get a bit of healthy competition going – everyone loves some Friday Fun!
As usual, the rules are simple:
Post the name of the song/ band in the comment box of this blog post.
The most creative or interesting entry will be chosen by judges from Cafédirect and announced on Monday on our blog.
The winner will win a Coffee Lovers Treat pictured left - containing one pack each of our 100% Arabica, gourmet organic Mayan Palenque and Machu Picchu coffees, two classic Cafédirect mugs and a Cafédirect Jute Bag, perfect to use and reuse when you’re shopping or out and about.
Prizes can only be sent to a UK or Ireland postal address.
You have until 5.30 pm today to enter – just before your weekend starts!
Good luck! And remember, if you’re not lucky enough to win the prize, you can now buy our whole range online - free Delivery until end of November!

So, 1st prize (coffee lovers treat pictured above) goes to……. Simon Daniels with ‘when I take my sugar to tea by Nat King Cole’.
2nd prize (tea lovers treat) goes to…….Alice Rawlings with Dolly Parton, Nine to Five!
