What I Did Today

Post by YHB » Sat Mar 02, 2013 1:57 pm
Why not write a couple of lines about what you did today.

Today I did two 24 litre strip runs.
I made another batch of Peat reek, my method.
I had a Clarinet lesson.
Not really true the last line, but here I welcome all to mention something significant in their day.

Even the title made be giggle...

I am still seed wresting... Not quite warm enough to go outside but running out of windowsills.

Have to say milk bottles make brilliant plant labels.

[Easydrinker]

I have two large electric propagators on in the greenhouse,
Next weekend I will need to pot up and heat the greenhouse at night.
I have radishes coming up in the poly tunnel.

But today I had my first use of my Klarstein Mundschenk Mash Tun.
Started on a new whisky.
As I am a cheapskate and not wanting to pay extra for Peated malt, I threw a couple of large spoons of my peat reek shavings in the wash.
It smells really nice where I live tonight.

I am getting low on ale. I have to get overnight mash under way soon. Summer drinking could be at risk.

[Easydrinker]

Today I fed some spent grain to the piggies and got aother whisky wash going.
Caught the last mole of the season.
Wrote some invoices to local farmers.
They usually wait a full 30 days before paying.
Surprised today, one paid after only 26 days!

Robert.

[Mash]

A farmer paid after 26 days - hmmm... You've been drinking again!

There was the new machine going.

England in other news... Today I have been making renewable energy lamps

[gaza the instructor]

Talked to my son and he has agreed to give me a lesson on computing.
Watch out here I come.
Don't like this quick reply business no little faces

[Easydrinker]

Agreed!
I always scroll down to "Full Editor & Preview"

Delivered a few parcels today but whilst out had a stripping run on timer on my airstill, am going to try a citrus spirit run tonight.

[Mash]

Been out shooting pigeon today and sourcing some red diesel for the tractor.

[gaza the instructor]

Dont use 'em all up Mash I love using them, makes me feel
all commutery and clever

[Easydrinker]

Is that pigeon, red diesel or renewable energy lamps?
You have properly lost me this time gaza, come down from the ceiling, please?

Robert.

[gaza the instructor]

No ED these little badge thingys

[Easydrinker]

Thanks for enlightening me!

Robert.

[gaza the instructor]

Long day in the saddle today four happy learners and one
very knackered instructor. Some say I have it easy just
sitting there. I say only two types of instructor, the quick
and the dead!!
There may be old pilots and there may be bold pilots, but
there are no old bold pilots.
That's it G'n T time more tonic please nurse.

[Easydrinker]

I have acted as un-official instructor a couple of times, and I would need danger money to take the job on full time.

I am enjoying my Easter break, with nothing to do but watch ewes lamb, and Easter bunnies lay eggs

Me,? I spent most of today bashing 10" high frothmonsters back into the buckets with a big spoon.
I need taller brew bins.
Where will it end

Robert.

[gaza the instructor]

Is it true that Haggis have four legs?
Am told if they live on a hill that two legs are shorter
so they can stand straight?
Are they hairy?
What sort of noise do they make?
Sleep standing up?
Shag on all fours?
I want one. Keep it in a box. Feed it on curry and chips.

Less yeast Spartacus !

[EchoSevenNine]

I showed my Mrs the basics of driving and it nearly killed a 20 year relationship.

Couldn't be a driving instructor for double my wages.

[Mash]

Yeah, I will second that.

Tough job. Even allowing the short skirts & Stories you hear.

[EchoSevenNine]

Maybe you could elaborate?

Ever get any offers, Gaz?

[gaza the instructor]

Mash is not my bag man!! Even in a short skirt!!
Do you mean "cash or couch". Of coarse not I am
a pro, dont need to act like one.
Been an instructor for 19 years could tell some
stories, but can't Ed would strike me off the
payroll.

[EchoSevenNine]

I KNEW IT!

Friend of mine is a taxi driver and he gets offers at least once a week and we're talking tenner fares here!!

[gaza the instructor]

Blimey they must be desperate for a bit.

[Easydrinker]

Over 30 years ago, my elder brother was a cabbie.
He told some stories, I am sure all these stories are all in the same vein.
Let's move on. and leave it to the imaginations of our readers.
