Irkafirka

I’m in Canada, writing from my second hotel of about four I think for this trip. The first night, in the Wyndhams, my body clock was still adjusting. At 4am my eyes opened like it was 9am and kicked me up into the day. Damn. “Best start work then…”

First, coffee….  and this is what I’m faced with –

Another poor quality photo from the Nexus One. Sigh.

There isn’t much tech in the world that I don’t get on with, however coffee machines (along with most fax machines) would be on the very short list if I ever made one. In fact, I just did and look – they’re at the top.

Were there any instructions for the machine anywhere in the room? No.
Any tips or pointers on the actual machine itself? No.
Brilliant.

Tweet tweet –

About 90mins later, this appeared –

What’s the twitpic behind the link?

Well… THIS:

How freaking amazing is that? My tweet, illustrated.

To give you some background, I stumbled across Irkafirka sometime ago now, back when they randomly sketched one of Benny’s tweets. I thought it was amazing and started following them. Both on Twitter and on RSS. Irkafirka illustrate tweets. Randomly. And they’re awesome.

Yesterday they did one of mine and I’m grinning form ear to ear.

Thanks to both of you, Chris and Nick. I’m made up.

Cheers.

  1. haha! Awesome! I might buy the print of mine, they are awesome.

    I actually know how to work that coffee machine, It got me through universitAY.

    Fill up the white thing at the back, put a coffee related sachet type thing in the top, press the button on the bottom. TRAVEL BACK TO THE 80’s AND GET INVOLVED IN TIMELINE ALTERING JAPES.

    Hope that helps.

    🙂

  2. Just seen this – AMAZING!!! I want one.

    and I have to agree, the vast array of coffee machines with their various pouches or capsules are mind boggling.
