The mocha may not have been hot, but it certainly wasn’t lacking in size 😂. What puzzles me is that in Italy and France, the cups for coffee and mocha are small, but there in England the cups are huge.
You have inspired me with the mocha. My mother came over on Friday, and we enjoyed mocha with pound cake. She thought it was an unusual combination. I jokingly told her, "This is Nina’s style." Of course, she had no idea what I was talking about.

@Jokersswild The classic way of presenting a mocha in England is in a conical glass with a handle just as you would a proper Irish coffee. Lazix in Canterbury is the best I've had in recent years but the absolute best ever was in Drammen in a small café that was also a chocolatier.
Serving it in breakfast cup is lazy.

On the way from the hotel to the Beehive I walked through the Radnor Street cemetery. I don't think anyone has been buried there since the sixties but there is still a small chapel like building. It is now managed by the local council as a local nature reserve (LNR). The management of the graves themselves is left to volunteers.
These are the only graves I saw that looked as though they were looked after
