    A woman who falsely claimed she was ***** jailed for eight-and-a-half years.

    The problem is that **** (quite rightly) is held to the same burden of proof as any other crime - Beyond Reasonable Doubt. In the absence of witness or corroborating evidence, one word against another, especially if the occurrence of *** is not disputed, is going to be problematic for CPS to...

    I don't know, I've seen tanks and rifles held together with 'black nasty'.

    Ken Bruce

    Greatest Hits radio have Simon Mayo doing Drive Time and it's the same great show he did on R2. Confessions (nothing illegal or laxative related!) great chat and music. I'll certainly be tuning in to Ken Bruce so I can shout at the radio during Popmaster.

    Curry...!!

    I don't use fresh coriander - I find it adds a soapy flavour.

    Coffee Stout/Porter

    I've often thought I'd like to try adding coffee flavour to a dark beer. I now find myself with a regular supply of coffee machine grounds [nights in a hotel where one pf the jobs is cleaning the coffee machine and t he used grounds only end up in the bin]. I was wondering how much is added...

    Sam's brew day's

    At a slight tangent, you mention Altbier, when stationed in Germany, our local was over the border in Holland and although the local Alt and Pils were both excellent in their own right, we drank (in Biblical quantity) 'Schuss' a half and half mixture. I throughly recommend it, though for the...

    For those of 'a certain age', ITV+ have all 26 episodes of Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) available.

    Why is the Bugatti in the car-port?...Because the home-brew set up is in the garage!

    Don't know about that, it's English language so probably not s4c.

    The 'Recommend me a TV series' thread

    This is what the US is turning into. Most of the Americans I have met have been through the Army and they were astonished that a. The British are generally not that religious and b. Even if they are, it's not something we generally discus with others.

    The 'Recommend me a TV series' thread

    I watched The Toll on Netflix the other day. A black comedy crime caper set in my bit of Wales. It comes to something when you can recognise the road junctions! The garage scenes were filmed at a mate of mine's and he went to the premier. Some of the characters are a bit odd but if you lived...

    Picture or Video of the day.

    I'm reminded of the Billy Connolly skit where he's explaining that they were filming in Africa and a lion was getting closer. e rummaged in his pack and started swapping his boot for his trainers. The cameraman said "You'll never outrun a lion" to which Billy replied "I don't need to outrun the...

    Chilling a Porter after fermentation

    I crash cool all my brews. The last but one was a Festival Porter and it's very good. There shouldn't be any problem for you

    Why sick? The blood service have finite resources - some allocated for recruitment/retention. I'm not part of that decision making process but presumably they advertise where they think it's most effective.

    Presumably the people responsible for drumming. up new donors have decided their money is better spent elsewhere.

    The 'Recommend me a TV series' thread

    I'm enjoying A Spy Among Friends on ITV+. I'm something of an expert on the Cold War and Intelligence matters so I can associate the actions with known facts and the ideals of the time. It's also excellent drama and the lay-man will still enjoy it.

    Shouting loudest means nothing

    As strange post, the subtleties of which may be lost on me but the author seems to want to belittle others' efforts. You donate platelets, good for you. Others, myself included regularly donate blood. I support several charities that have personal meaning to me. I donate to ABF The Soldiers'...
