Poor old Starbucks. The company as a whole may be valued at around $40bn (£24.9bn), but the UK part of it appears to be a drain upon resources, trading at a loss these past ten years or so.
We should, of course, be nothing but grateful that these poor souls don't up-sticks and leave this
good for nothing market place.

Costa, on the other hand must be getting something very much wrong...good for them, good for us too.
