    The Coronavirus thread.

    "Food and online shopping rose, and alcohol sales also jumped. But clothes sales tumbled by 34%." My missus will be responsible for 33%.

    You're stuck in quarantine with only one group / composer.

    Now, I've obviously heard her play the albums, but I just guessed it was one of 20 or so she liked. I would have thought she'd say Bruno Mars or something like that, nope...... Adam & The Ants

    Your stuck in Quarantine with a forum member what one would you choose

    Anyone. It'd turn into the equivalent of an all-inclusive booze holiday after about three hours. Anyone want to move in :)

    You're stuck in quarantine with only one beer

    Thanks for the link jjish, I'm going to be doing that for sure. Apart from when i was in the Navy, I've only ever seen it in pubs in Gibraltar and been told that it was also served in the house of commons bar. At sea (when the equivalent of a Corporal and below) we'd get it in cans (tinnies)...

    You're stuck in quarantine with only one beer

    If I could get ahold of some of this again I'd be a very happy bunny. If memory serves, it tasted like a sort of caramelly light ale. Very easy to drink and very easy to fall over after a few too many.

    You're stuck in quarantine with only one group / composer.

    To be honest, if I knew what the duration of the quarantine was going to be, I'd pick an artist/band I'd not much listened to but would remedy that and smash the back catalogue. Beyond 'greatest hits' type stuff I've never gone deep into a few bands I like, so I'd go with Tom Petty & The...

    It is impossible to answer really. I might have missed it, but I'm surprised we've not had Neil Young or Springsteen or Van Morrison or Miles Davis or Laffing Lennie Cohen or Elvis or Beatles or Jimi etc etc etc yet.

    ZX Spectrum

    Regarding gaming, I'm the middle aged male version of a female oap with no manual dexterity. I somewhat stupidly purchased a PS4 along with a dozen games thinking it would give me something to do when the wife watches wifey stuff on the telly. Singularly the biggest waste of money in my entire...

    Coopers Kt..No Sugar?

    Hi mate The kit should have a kilo of sugar or another fermentable added. You may find that putting the citra hops in this early may leave a kinda grassy taste rather than hoppy. Most people add dry hops for the last 2 to 4 days only.

    Things to do whilst self - isolating

    I taught the better half how to play cribbage yesterday afternoon, that was fun. She then taught me how to knit. That wasn't fun.

    Reverse Osmosis Equipment

    Hi, why not try out a batch of five gallon RO water first to see if it makes any difference to your beer? A lot of fish/pet shops use it and sell it. It's been a couple of years since I bought it, but it was less than a fiver then for 30 Litres which I needed. Just a thought.

    Collecting Bottles

    I'm a big fan of Newkie brown bottles. The labels fall off, they are over 500ml so you get closer to a pint. I know they are clear glass, but I don't store my beer on a Caribbean beach, so as yet have had no problems. By far the easiest bottling I do, is to reuse 1 litre pop bottles. The missus...

    Collecting Bottles

    +1 with regards to alistair's advice of getting a bench capper For the sake of a few quid more, they make life so much easier. Nowt wrong with pet bottles either though, when i bottle with them, I use a damp tea towel and tighten the bejesus out of them wink...
