What I Did Today

[Curmudgeon]

Today I got my delivery from Holland and Barrett of 10 jars of molasses (buy one get one half price) plus some barley malt extract and multi vitamins and protein drink stuff for the Boss all for £35ish. £5 off orders over £30 and also free delivery and £1.50 of reward credit for first order.

Sounds like there will be a few Rum washes going down then :-)

I was supposed to be playing with my new column, but this happened





I spent several hours being a midwife and delivering pups, Mum's looking a bit scruffy but she has just churned out 6 Apricot Cockerchon's

Well done. Do you now have to wet each bairns head

I thought that you had enougth happening in your life mate, and then you hit us with whelping!
A couple of weeks and we will have sheeps birthing, we are pretty far North, and so try to time it late.
Easter weekend will be frantic.

Can't stay online long today off to work in the brum brum.

[Anavrin]

That litters worth over £3K, it's worth the effort even with 5 kids to chase around, it might even pay for last Chrismas!!!

[Mash]

Good work. Almost as cute as a lhasa (with a marine cut)

[Anavrin]

Today I got one of these




Ordered it back in August, 7 month lead time!!!!

Mercedes C350e Estate, Brum Brum

Very nice indeed....

Elsewhere, guess which company has just now been mentioned in dispatches in the fallout from the VW diesel emission misreporting rort

It was always a case of one in, all in, I would have thought.....

[Easydrinker]

Methinks that I am missing something here?

[Anavrin]

Can't be Mercedes surely, this car has an official C02 of 48gr/km and 136mpg!!!

Having drove it, I'll be lucky to get within 100mpg of the official figure, but I don't care about that, the "official figures" get me in the cheapest BIK band for company car tax lol

[Mash]

Good wheels dude. 7 months is a bit much.

New puppies, new car, so new crystal dragon next then

[Easydrinker]

I'm expecting Mrs Anavrin to pop out another "food baby" sometime soon

I have had Yeast monsters that have tried to climb out of the bucket in the past.
Last nights Yeast monster was the Grand daddy of them all!
I went to bed feeling that the worst had passed, I awoke to yeast overspill seemingly everywhere.
A measure of the severity was the fact that the easiest way of cleaning up was a fish slice, straight back into the buckets, X'ing that from the floor, and all the other stuff stored on the floor.
If this one isn't fermented out in three days, then I want to know why.
