What I Did Today

Nice work sir, hat off to you. I'm no
good at that sort of thing. Can you
make me one, would suitably reimburse
you for your craftsmanship.

I finally filtered my latest Something Comforting from the fruits and spices.
Have gone through two stepped stages of sweetening and fortifying.
I now need to leave it alone until the morrow, as I have now lost the ability to correctly assess if it needs more sugar.
10 litres of loveliness seeking bottles.
'Tis a hard life at times, to be sure.

I still haven't found the time to get this one finished, I test a glass and then go to
bed without tasting notes being made.
Life is so fecking hard

You can have this one, it will need a thorough clean and then another clean, a polish and a deep clean before putting anything valuable in it , I have tested it with Iso and it all stayed in , no leaks i could detect but it needs cleaning and then cleaning some more

PM me a safe address and I will get it away for you.

And here is the base for my copper parrot, it is allegedly a piece of floorboard from Dick Turpins mums pub in Threekingham, even if its not it is a gnarly lump of oak that will look good when its well oiled.....

Thanks Robert, not sure I understand completely but i'm glad I found this place and you guys otherwise I would still be tapping the white stick.

Anyway when I first started with the airstill I bought one of these oak bottles from a guy on that auction site, i followed the instructions to soak the bottle before filling it and... yes it split down one side losing the contents... grrr complain, the guy very apologetic sent me a replacement and yes.... that one split too. grrrrrrr... are these fubar'd ? i thought about putting a jubilee clip around them or even gluing them with something organic wood sap? any suggestions appreciated.

Hold on to that idea about a CD.....talk to Anavrin first, as I know he's told me that he's was thinking of using his old column again rather than the CD...just a thought from me.
