Is it a nasty take on life to expect people to want to work for a living? I am not expecting genuinely unemployed people to not get some kind of help from the government. What I detest is people who do not work with entitlement issues who think they should have the same kind of life as those...

I see what you are saying Chippy and there are some genuine cases of hardship out there which are tragic. However there are many who just expect the state to pay for everything, rent, food, school clothes, cars you name it. Too many kids are being brought up with the view that you don't need...

You're right with that of course JR. Still bewilders me though that some parents need their children's school to feed them. There is plenty help out there for low income families. People need to be educated on how to look after their money and on how to prioritise their spending. The...

Is there a massive amount of time between rounds then, to allow beers to fully ferment and condition?

I remember watching that Adrian Chiles programme and I was genuinely stunned that one person felt the need to drink that much in a week. I think I am around the 15-20 units per week but would like it to be a little less. If I have less than normal I feel better because of it, less sleepy, less...

How you getting on now Ian, are things any better for you?

That's a pay increase of over £1,200 for someone on a 40 hour week. Not bad really. Puzzles me how someone of 23 and over needs this hourly rate though but someone say 18+ does not.

There is a way to get your point across though. The whole "she is working class" thing is an excuse for behaving like a nugget. The only class she showed was none. Most of us are working class but you can still express your opinion without sounding like you are in the primary school...

A reflection on society as a whole at the moment. Unfortunately people have forgotten what is and is not acceptable behaviour. I blame social media for a lot of it because it seems people think they can just say what they want with no repercussions. You are also starting to see more and more...

This forum apart, I would stay away from as much social media as possible. It can be so negative at times and does the brain no good at all. And as somebody has already said, try to stay away from alcohol as much as possible. Brewing is fine in theory but then unfortunately it means you...

used to watch brewmaster ben on youtube when i first started becoming interesting in brewing, he was very good. shame he stopped doing his videos.

Costco might be worth a look

I brewed up this kit a while back and it looks ok, the head is great but very fizzy. Have I just added too much priming sugar? I used about half a teaspoon of regular white sugar in each 500ml bottle. The taste is good apart from being fizzy which is not ideal in this kind of beer. I still...

Brewed it several times using "dark crystal" which I am presuming is the same. I only use about 5% though plus 17.5% caramalt and the remainder extra pale malt. Turns out great.

15 cups of tea a day Don't know how much time you sleep for but surely by most people's standards that is almost one cup for every hour you are awake? ashock1 Your electric bill must be maahoosive for all those kettle boils.
