    Home Brew Shop - how far is you?

    I have one about 10 miles away in Whitley Bay, does mostly wine but some beer stuff and another in Gateshead about 4 miles but across the Tyne Bridge which is difficult to access at busy times. I am surprised that there are so few around this area however it's a bit like a hardware shop, you...

    Election Special.

    OK I also have to admit that I do have a Twitter account but for not like the idea of saying things in a limited amount of characters as you may see from some of my posts I am a bit more verbose than 140 characters. I also do not like the idea of sharing a platform where the most powerful man...

    Election Special.

    I have to admit to having a Facebook account.... no wait before you shoot me and I will explain! I signed up for it in order to join a local homebrew closed group of brewers who pass on info just like this forum. It's useful for problems, advice competitions and beer swaps. I DO NOT...

    Election Special.

    I agree that younger women are the worst, they will often say I don't know anything about politics as if some people are innately endowed with political knowledge and an interest in what is happening around them and they were somehow missed out. The point is that politics affects every part of...

    Dementia Tax.

    The current system discounts the value of the home as an asset if you have a spouse that needs to live there also otherwise when the person with dementia dies their partner loses their home. Not sure if this will continue to be the case as Corbyn was just saying this morning that a husband may...

    General Election 2017 [POLL]

    The system is what it is and has not been manipulated by any party to be like that, just it favours some of the traditional parties and they choose not to change it but that is still no reason not to take part. As we found out in the referendum people vote for any amount of reasons, each and...

    General Election 2017 [POLL]

    We (Priti Patel) also gave £11 million to some African girl band to enable them to break though and make loads of money and thus saving the world from poverty!

    Lib Dem manifesto.

    Couldn't agree more with the comments about cannabis. Whatever people's personal views on legality this election is about Brexit and stopping a massive Tory majority so why would you then introduce a marmite issue like legalising cannabis? It suggests a massive dose of political naivety by...

    Lib Dem manifesto.

    Have a close look at the Lib Dems manifesto, the small print says: "we reserve the right to change our mind on all of these things if we get a sniff of power".* How could anyone vote for a party that does U turn on it's policies, supports the Tories austerity regime and attack on disabled...

    UK to block Kodi pirates in real-time

    VPNs are legal as is streaming from the internet. It is accessing paid for Sports and movies and encrypted channels that is not allowed and that is what the rulings are about.

    Count Arthur Strong.

    He reminds me of Harry Worth, a sitcom from the 60s, similar bumbling character where everything goes wrong. Wouldn't be surprised if that is where they nicked this from, even looks similar! Anyone remember the opening scene where he stood against the window and lifted his arm and leg...

    Does anyone else sit in the office thinking about brewing and beer?

    It's a tough career in the ladder police, you have to start right at the bottom and make your way up slowly, no shortcuts to the top!

    Does anyone else sit in the office thinking about brewing and beer?

    It was a Pharma site and it takes that long to transfer the products and get regulatory approval at other sites. In fact one of the products we used to make transferred to Brasil cannot get approval there until 2019, 4 years after we closed! I spend the last year or so scouring the site for...

    Celebration!

    You have to have grown up in the 60s to appreciate the full hatred that people feel for Brady and Hindley. There are certain parts of that decade that still stay with me , the Winter of 63, Aberfan disaster, World cup final, Donald Campbell crashing, moon landings but the most enduring of them...

    Does anyone else sit in the office thinking about brewing and beer?

    When I did work I used to log in and follow this and Jim's site especially when I was fist building my kit. Once we were given 3 years notice of redundancy (yes 3 years) I moved job to help the team to close the site down and started looking for kit to buy and often had this delivered to work...
