Re: The All new Reeder Megathread

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

i was bored so decided to see where the Polish went on holiday and it looks like their biggest destination is their own seaside. this got me looking and FEKINHELL their beach is mahooooosssssiiiivvv. its the length of the whole polish coastline. thats like saying from Kilnsea near Grimsby to Berwick Upon Tweed :smt107

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

I was there last year, well part of it. Twas empty, as it was out of season.

Where I went was a very sensitive area, as across the river was Russia & in winter it freezes over, so lots of technology on both sides to monitor what's going on

Evening all.
Christmas shopping day tomorrow. It will all be done in one independent book shop in Oswestry. Fortunately, the bookshop also has a very nice café attached, where I can fortify myself against the gruelling rigours of the activity with tea and cake.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Christmas has officially begun - I have opened the tub of Twiglets!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

It hasn't begun yet Trev as I haven't done my Christmas shopping so get the lid back on the Twiglets before you end up on the naughty step!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Not Christmas yet so don't get so informal, it's Sir Trev to us plebs

Ooops! </doffs_cap> </tugs_forelock> </bowsandscrapes> :notworthy:

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

well its not going to be a Dickens christmas.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

It may well be for an awful lot of less fortunate folk, and not in a snowy, picture postcard sense. :-(

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

agree.. its a joke that in this day and age there are people cold, hungry and sleeping on the streets.. never mind the amount of poverty in the inner city's.

i dont understand how. the public are being taxed left right and centre and we are still in 1.8trill debt with nothing to show for it. put a tin hat on me but there is something fishy going on....

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Have a read of the book this Wikipedia article is summarising, then you will.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

It's near enough to Chrimbo so formality can go right of the window as far as I'm concerned!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

OK Trev:takeabow::smt029, all right by us plebs;)

Feeling comfortably numb after having one of my Belgian beer selection pack. Only 10.5% :-)

Didn't think I'd like it, but I'd sipped it, rather than gulped it down. Not sure if I can do another, as I'd probably fall asleep on the sofa :-)

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Had a great guided tour once of a brewery in Belgium. The jovial (and slightly rotund) chap showing us around said their weakest brew was about 5%, called Blusser, or Extiguisher in English, was the stuff they gave to sick children and was similar to Stella. The rest of their range started at 10% and was meant to be a complex drink to be sipped like wine. Some of it was great but not the sort of stuff to drink in a session!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Indeed Sir Trev, I had a night out in Brugge with a local pilot, who took us to a bar tucked away in a side street. The beer was on a menu, like a wine list, and you didn't quaff it. I had 4 beers that night, and no hangover, even though they were strong beers.

The usual Irish pub near our hotel served the cooking larger

Flippin quiet in our house now. The Monkey and her boyfriend have headed down to his mum's in Southampton for New Year and Father-in-Law has gone to see one of his old school mates in Marlow for the day. Once I drive him home to Shrewsbury tomorrow it will be just Lady Poppy and me again at Trev Towers. Nice as Chrimbo is it's also nice to get the sofa back to yourselves!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

sometimes i really am a plonker.....

i just bought 10 50xLP carry cases to put my record collection in the attic (there is already tons up there). they arrived today after ordering them yesterday and while unpacking them from their heavy duty cardboard boxes it just struck me that the cardboard boxes are the same size as the contents so i now have double the amount of LP storage i needed..... :smt101

glad i got the 50x ones instead of the 100x as they are frigging heavy when full.

Evening all.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Evening, last of the Christmas beer being drunk and then its back on the wagon

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Pretty much no alcohol consumed on my part over Christmas apart from a cup of mulled wine last night!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
 

Very restrained. I've emptied 3 bottles of 10 year old Tawny in the last 8 days. Can't resist Port
