Beat me to it Chippy.:)

As Chuffa says above, watching rugby league. Season ticket holder with my local team. Also supporting my grandson playing at under 19’s and granddaughter playing at under 10’s. In the past, Carp fishing with my kids and grandkids. Flying radio control models, especially slope soaring gliders...

Reading Dutto’s post above I had access to those items as well. Never did we think of using them to harm others. I often carried a sheath knife and an axe. These were things necessary for a 13 year old to carry in the woods.

I had a Wimpy once. Are McDonalds similar?

I hope they gave you plenty of time to get the dairy free ice cream. Good luck with your sale. For a short time I considered it but being 64 with not the best health heart wise my better half persuaded me that now is not really the time. Never been that far from the mainland but remember a great...

Yes it does help. Unfortunately the cider I have is too sweet now so I am trying to reduce the sweetness. Will make a turbo cider which I know ends up dry and try blending. If I do take it too far I will try Candrel as suggested. Thanks

I have done a few turbo ciders in the past and it has always ended very dry. OK for me but the wife finds it too dry. Did a cider kit for Christmas and it turned out too sweet for both of us. 19 lt in keg now. Is it possible to now do a turbo cider and blend with kit to make something more...

If there is a plastic step in the bottom of the fridge like mine. I used an old soldering iron to pierce that from the back. It won't damage any cooling pipework if it hits it. I didn't but the soldering iron is trashed due to the insulation burnt onto it.

Normally when I mention reinforced Concrete Detailing I just get a blank look. :lol:

I offer my advice coming from a position of no real knowledge. 1 - Are all theswitches the same? Possibly you are using a faulty switch. 2 - Have you tried using the other pair of contacts to see if the power for the illumination comes from that? 3 - You could try linking the ins and the outs so...

My British Gas smart meters allow me to have free electric between 09:00 and 17:00 on a saturday or sunday. Anyone else taking advantage of this for brewing. I now brew only on a Saturday knowing my electric costs for running my 2.4kw HLT or boiler are free.

My grandaughter bought me a kit at a car boot. Cant remenber if she paid 5p, 10p or 50p. It was about 3 years out of date. I replaced the yeast and brewed it. I couldn't tell any difference from a kit from the LHBS. I would say go ahead it will only cost a couple of quid. Whats to loose?

Daily driver Focus ST170 had from new in 2003, now done 135000 miles and love it. Also have Caterham 7 that I built in 2008, currently SORN since heart surgery and I couldn't get in and out of it. Ready for getting on the road in spring. Also 2000 clasic Mini in garage, my retirement project...

And free p&p for a short time,

Roddy. This is my second turbo cider. The first 1 was cloudy and very dry but very drinkable. Recipe 1: 19lts Asda Smartprice apple juice, 3lbs Aldi clear honey, 6 Bramley apples (blended), 3tsp yeast nutrient, 3tsp Pectolase, 3 bag stewed tea, sachet youngs cider yeast. Recipe 2: As above but...

Made a turbo cider and it had had been fermenting at 20deg for 1.5 weeks when I went away for a week. I left it fermenting because the OG was 1.058 and 1.030 before I left and very sweet. Made a quick trip home today and SG 1.000 tasting good but very cloudy. I am away again for a few days and...

Please add me to the list as well. Good luck with the book. Cheers Steve

I also like decanters but as Chippy_Tea says that is a lot of money. The most I have spent is £30 for a perfect condition Dartington Sharon decanter. I always check out the charity and antique shops when I see them. Lots of stuff available but check condition carefully. Plenty of good ones to...
