It falls out of the cupboard and the bloody lid falls off.

Scoop it up and put it back in the box?

Or bin it?

Ps...you've just swept but not cleaned your floor

I have a one and three quarter pint flask of it every day, that I take to work. That’s what keeps me going.

Four heaped spoons of coffee and three level spoons of sugar.

Oh, and definitely scoop it all up and put back in the box OP.

Any thing that falls on the floor I always use the three minute rule.

Meh, you're chucking boiling water on it to drink so scoop - I wouldn't want dog hairs and bits of grit in my coffee but you said the floor is swept.

I should probably add that I've just eaten breaded chicken steaks that were 4 days out of date - her ladyship will no doubt resurrect this thread if I start throwing up in the next 48 hours to say I told you so

Scoop it up, put it into a little bag cloth, tie it up and leave it in the car as a scent. It’ll smell like a lovely cafe every time you step into your car for a while.

It bloody well happened to me only it was a jar of Nescafe involved. It was at the time of supermarket shortages, and I was stock piling. One jar fell and broke, so I scooped up what had landed in a pile, obviously checking for broken glass, carefully leaving on the floor what was going to have crap in it, put the stuff in an empty plastic tray, and everyone who's had a caffeine fix round here has lived including me.

So who was I to argue with a nine year old, waste not, want not, pass on the philosophy to the next generation, just like salvaging the coffee.

I couldn't agree with you more, obviously a girl after my own heart. I wasn't always in this very comfortable position gained through hard work and determination, but brought up in a council house where my mum had a larder complete with a cold slab that you put your butter, milk, and cooked meats on to stay reasonably fresh, then had a sniff of it. Providing it didn't knock you out, it was safe enough to eat. And of course there was the little window at the side with the small mesh screen to keep the flys off. Old habits die hard which is why I tell people if they are looking for me between 6.30pm and 8pm, try Morrison's or Tesco as at that time they are reducing for quick sale to clear the shelves.

Scoop it up and use it as a body scrub. Coffee is a great exfoliator
