Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
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
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..... glad i got the 50x ones instead of the 100x as they are frigging heavy when full. |

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
