My GF has just moved in and today I was doing odd jobs and said 'I;m making our home nice for us', that got me a coffee, however I got the V sign when I asked for a Bianchi

Is there such a thing as a good American beer/ale? How was it?

Would that work even if I'm still on the first 20€ subscription not expiring until next summer?

Worth a try I guess - what have you got to lose?

Quite a few

Founders and Sierra Nevada aint bad at all. There was another couple of american ones that had very similar branding to the founders stuff that was delicious. Had them in Korea and can't for the life of me remeber what the are.

Lagunitas? They make some very good beers. Heineken now own 50% so some look down on them. As long as they make good beers I'll buy them. Founders make some amazing beers their Breakfast Stout, KBS and CBS are some of my favorite beers ever.

Sierra Nevada Pale ale has been the starting point for an awful lot of people to move from mass produced lagers.They make some great beers though it's mostly their specials I'll try these days. Torpedo is still a solid choice if the off licence had nothing of interest though that is getting rare these days with so many good Irish breweries.

Am I right in thinking somebody here enjoys woodworking as a hobby?

Currently going over an oak coffee table my father made years ago, even with a mask I'm smelling timber in my sleep. Clever clogs here also didn't cover the bikes in the shed so now my motorbike, my road bike and my GF's roadbike are all covered in sawdust

He must have been seriously bored (and hopefully he sticks with cycling).

Nice hobby to have. There's nothing like the smell of freshly cut or sanded timber. I worked in a joinery shop as a summer job throughout my teens and the smell brings me back there

Had to do some digging
Think it might have been Kona brewing co's longboard and another one from their aloha series. I kept the labels for my fridge but no idea where they are

While we're on beers, anybody doing this?

I was tempted by it. It was a great deal. No problem getting through the stouts but not sure about having 24 oysters in a sitting! I do like them but my wife won't eat them and don't think the kids would either! I have got one of them to try mussels though!

Myself and a mate ordered it but chose whiskey instead of the oysters, we're going to get the oysters elsewhere, just one or two

Roads be slippy this morning. Probably helped having all that extra skin to slow me down when my bike became too tired to stay upright.

magicbastarder

you wiped out?

eeeee

Ouch, hope you're ok Cram. You don't need *all* your skin anyway

cletus

Was it at speed, and therefore it looked cool and awesome?

Or were you going slow, and therefore it looked sad and pathetic?


All messing aside, hope you and the bike are ok

LollipopJimmy

Hope you're ok, skin is overrated and chicks dig scars. It was slippy alright, a bit of the foam came off my flat white when I was walking home from the coffee shop.

CramCycle

North of 30kmph to a dead stop over a few metres. Nothing cool, slowing coming to a junction and the front wheel popped out from under me. I knew it was slippy having lost the wheel in the other direction earlier so no one to blame but myself, best I can figure I turned the wheel as I braked and BAM

Wow, what a first world's problem statement

Cram, heal well

Why did the bike go asleep?

Because it was too tired Coral.
