I think I paid around 2.50 for just the one bottle. Saw it and had to taste it! Good deal in Tesco though

5.2% strong enough aswell, looks promising will pop into Tescos during the week.

I'm hungover, but you lot are making me want to drink. Few glasses of wine with dinner to get me over the hangover sounds like a lovely idea.

Thought you were trying to stay off the drink to keep the fitness levels up?

Feck it, go get a few beers.

My trainers are talking to me on Facebook. Apparently they're setting me an 8 week challenge, which involves giving up alcohol. FUCK that.

Never really tried craft beer before. Always walked past it.

Is the banana bread beer sweet? Im curious now. May just pick one up tomorrow celebrating/commiserating the car passin/failing itsnct

Angron · 13-01-2013 9:55pm

Feeling slightly better now than I was earlier, though the only thing I've managed to keep down is some toast.

I thought it would be sweet, but it's not. Has a proper beer taste, is quite dark, faint smell of banana and a slight banana aftertaste.... Is very pleasant, very drinkable... (imo

I should get commission from all the customers I got them!

Bleh. Swords Ink was ment to get back to me with a sketch for my tattoo on Friday. It's Sunday night and still no sketch.

Granted, they DID report problems with the IM on their end so I'm going to leave it 'til Tuesday. In other news, listening to The BeeGees like a boss.

Mind if I ask why you chose Swords Ink in the end? I just looked at the portfolios for their artists and I have to say, some of it is pretty bad work. :-/ Seriously unimpressed by their work tbh.

So healthy in the first paragraph.

Destroyed in the second. :pac:

Also, guys, someone tell me how to magically make cuts disappear? New shoes DESTROYED my poor feet last night. I literally cannot walk at the moment as one foot is cut so badly that the entire thing is swollen and throbbing like mad. Feckin' killing me, and I have class tomorrow.

Also, enrolling in college tomorrow.

It is and it isnt a scam if you ask me in theory its a great idea, but the like oof failing cars due the the lights over the reg plate is a joke or making ten year old cars going once a year is money making because all you have to do is look in the motors section of here and you will see some twenty year old cars better maintained than car three or four years old all depends on the owner.

But it does keep proper deathtrap cars off the road which is it positives. So im half and half in favour and against it :pac:

True, the original idea was great for taking mouldy cars off the road alright. But failing cars on uneven lights/partly worn tyres etc and then charge again for a re-test is a joke. Simple things could be let go and just brought to the drivers attention or else allow for a free re-test if you're back with the car within the three weeks.

So a bit of a scam and easy way for making money.

My car isn't far off 20yrs but damned she's a great wee car and never let me down. Only failed on lights last time. They weren't correctly aligned. Easy fix.

So hope goes well tomorrow.

I wholeheartedly agree with you

, I think it also depends on the tester my car on its last nct I spent up to 8 hours cleaning her shes my baby (well until I change it in a few months) but it passed with the tester telling me my lights were slightly off alignment and to get fixed but he gave me a pass.

Best of luck tomorrow

Whatcha doin'?

Re: the NCT. Tis a scam alright. The idea behind is is fine, but like anything, the Irish don't do it properly and get greedy, and think about how many other ways they can rip us off.
