yup. such a thing of beauty forced to be outside. mind you a 700L chesty takes up a lot of space so there really is nowhere ins the house for it

Better where it is anyway mate. That way we have 2 maybe 3 meters tops to travel between brewing and pint refill - especially good on that big brew day coming up.

Brought home a 47inch LCD in the back of the Barina today, the salesman was all smirky until he saw me slide it straight in and head off......

Admittedly, I did take a short friend to drive the car home for me, there was no way I would have fit behind the wheel....

It's amazing what you can fit in a 'small' car these days - I brought home half a dozen 2.8m decking planks in a Honda Jazz, boot closed and all. I've also taken three none-too-small blokes camping in that, with all the gear including a keg.

I loved the way the salesman was making comments to the girl at the register........"Barina" while pointing at me.......

The car itself is 3.9m long, hatchbacks aren't what they once were...

I frickin hate bottling. I just thought you should know that.

Its the first time I've bottled anything in 2 years (braggot that needs a good long aging). Now I remember why I shifted to kegs. I just love scrubbing bottles for hours.

Edit: I can't spell either

Ugh, oversparged. I sure as hell hope this beer isn't incredible, I don't want to do a 3 hour boil ever again.

Diddy is being sued for $1 trillion after being accused of causing 9/11.

A woman named Valerie Turks filed the suit against Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, alleging that he was the cause behind the collapse of the World Trade Centre in 2001 and stole a poker chip from her worth "100 zillions of dollars".

Turks was denied a restraining order against the rapper, but the judge set a hearing for the case for January 31.

"[Diddy] went through Kim Porter and Rodney King and knocked down the WTC and then they all came and knocked my children down. Set me up to be on disability and disabled my baby. He put my baby in a wheelchair," Billboard quotes Turks as saying in her legal papers.

"Plus I won a lot of money at the casino in Mississippi and Sean P. Diddy Combs has my chip to my money," she continued. "I heard he gave it to Gwen Allen to hold but she cannot cash it in. I want my chip please help me.

"It's well worth over 100 zillions of dollars, and my hospital keys. They put me and my baby in the hospital and broke my baby 2 legs and sexual assaulted my children and crushed us (sic)."

Turks, who is asking for $900 billion dollars in child support and $100 billion dollars for "loss of income", also claims she once dated Diddy and share a son, 23-year-old Cornelius Wilson.

You know, I generally shrug my shoulders when people go on about the "nanny state", can't do this like you used to ect, could be my age I 'spose. But seeing the footage on the cricket just now of a piglet let loose on the Gabba in 83 (smuggled in in an esky according to Heals) really makes me feel deprived as you'd have **** all chance of pulling a caper like that today.

Old hatchbacks rock for hauling big ****. You can ALWAYS fit it in somehow.

I did a 2.5 hour boil on purpose yesterday... barleywine. OG 1.095, which I'll top up with some sort of fermentable to get to 1.100. Turns out my mashtun CAN handle a 9kg grain bill.

Wut.

I would like to think that when the judge asked for their damages claim, the defendent raised a pinky finger to their lip to say that amount of money... Dr Evil style.

The sad part: they will probably get their 15 minutes of fame and a reasonable amount of cash with it.

An easier way to get $1,000,000 ... ask for it, for no reason whatsoever. Just as awesome ... ask for part of that for the same reason.

You poor poor man.

While driving home yesterday I saw a Camry that had driven over a traffic island. Dunno how he could've done it... sun in his eyes maybe.
Front bumper torn off, driver yelling into his mobile phone. On such a hot day I felt a bit of sympathy for him, but I did let out little sinister laugh at the ruined grey camry.

Normally, I would rather smash the end off a bottle of Pure Blond and glass myself than drink it, but my neighbor offered me one the other day and because he's such a nice bloke I accepted it graciously.

Before he handed it to me he sliced up a fresh, juicy lemon and jammed a wedge into the bottle.
'Are you trying to tell me I'm a ****** with this citrus infused offering, what are you out of parasol's or something?' I said.

'Just try the ******* thing' was his reply.

You know what? It was actually alright, very refreshing indeed - even after the sixth one.

Who a thunk it?

Little umbrellas in my pure blonde.... THAT'S what's been missing!
