The European vacation seems to consist of Brussels and tiny bits of France.

I tried it on my computer, both iPads, SWAMBO's iPhone and even rang my brother to get him to check to make sure it wasn't my modem!


Was very relieved that yesterday wasn't a brew day! :(

That is soooooooooo me. I use the "Honey a bloke at work went there and the food is crap. Why don't we try this place............"
 
Im guilty too. I was having a fit.

Me too.

Yesterday was brewday and videoing it for you tube (have had a few people ask about my recent build).

I was bored out of my mind during the brewday down time in between processes. And there seems to be a lot of it when most of the brew is automated as opposed to my very manual 3V rig previously.

I ALWAYS have AHB open on my combrewter on brewday....

Checked it on every internet capable device in the house :D

Had to settle for "other" websites.... :lol:

Ha Ha yeh me too...I took her away at Easter and we stayed at balgownie estate in Yarra Glen. I just happened to say..
"Oh look honey Hargreaves Hill brewery is in town and Ive heard they do a nice lunch..."

And WW3 followed...

"I knew you only planned this trip so you could get to a brewery..its all about beer with you...."yada yada yada.

Anyway when she got over it we went their for lunch and she enjoyed it..They just have to make a big issue first though.. :rolleyes:
 
When every trip to the supermarket includes a lap of the bottlo...just in case something new has come in....

when your 5yo daughter collects "beer lids" [used bottle caps]

she gets to stir it and stir the sprinkle stuff [yeast] in

[her words]

when you brew beer, when you are meant to be at home with the daughter by yourself looking after her and put her out the back with the dogs while you are doing the important things and yell at her when she tries to tip the grain on the floor :p but looking at the flame of the burner keeps her occupied so thats one advantage of brewing with gas ;) you can keep the kids entertained while you chase them away from the hot bits lol
