    Drill settings

    Does it sound like it’s got similar settings? It didn’t seem in reverse but how would I definitely know?

    Drill settings

    Yeah I had it on hammer, I didn’t know which setting to have clutch on but did it on lower speeds. New Bosch bits and it still took a good 10 minutes a hole (I did stop often to check temperature of bit). Should it take that long?

    Drill settings

    I’ve finished now so more a what was I doing wrong thread. I’ve got an old Bosch drill I inherited from my old man when he died. It has hammer or drill action, 1 and 2 (which I assume are clutch settings) and A to D on the trigger with an E also on the trigger but separate from the other...

    Fullers Vintage 2011 edition

    I chose to have this years bottle on my birthday, it was amazing. Flavours I don’t usually associate with beer, plum on the nose and amazing deep malt before deep fruit and bitter finish. That’s it for another year of the Vintage. Will be having some of the others from Fullers later in the year.

    What if marriage was not recognised in law?

    I think the same people who can’t be married would have ended up in the same problem and not be recognised as a legitimate couple in law. If you could push a button and erase the historical approach to it all then it would be possible.

    Month of Misery

    All the best, I’ve just come back to the dark side after 6 weeks without a beer because of antibiotics (1 of the 3 you can’t drink on). First beer back tasted like nothing I had ever tasted before, it was incredible. As did the rest I threw at my face that night.

    Harvesting yeast.

    I don’t want to hijack the thread but it does apply to the OP/ question.... Why is it recommended only re-harvesting yeast in homebrew a couple of times? After that does it increase the risk of other strains developing?

    Reflections - how do we all keep fit ?

    I usually walk 6 miles a day at work, but I golf and ride my bike as much as possible. I also do the odd instructor live session but not for a while.

    It’s not to do with brewing but you could dry them and make walnut flour, makes amazing pancakes.....

    Are you proud to be English.

    I wouldn’t necessarily say I’m proud of being English, however I do feel extremely lucky to have been born in this country and able to have and support my family because I was lucky enough.

    IPA go suck it

    Not meaning the ones we brew for our own pleasure, nor telling people what to brew (apologies if it came across that way). I still like tasting other commercial beers I see that I haven’t tried before and going to the odd festival; it’s all just very heavily hopped at the minute.

    IPA go suck it

    If I’m drinking the hoppy ones I try to go for the fruitier tasting hops. Otherwise I wake up in the morning and my mouth tastes like I have been chewing a pine leaf.
