Get a few tins of brasso and pour it in, put a small nail in the bottom, get a french stick with the ends chopped off and allow the resulting liquid to run though the entire length. the melon was there to add taste and the french stick to take the abrasive stuff out of the brasso. edit - could someone try it and report back?

Norpig Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 If anyone on here works for the NHS then get yourselves on to the Alphabet Brewing Company website and you can get a 50% discount. Just email them a copy of your ID badge and they send you a code. If you're in Manchester you even get free delivery same day! Quality beers as well so well worth it, i've had 2 orders so far and not had a bad beer yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Spider Posted June 11, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted June 11, 2020 I've had 3 nights off. I'm tempted to go for a full week, but I've half an eye on the Sweaty Betis match tonight, some San Miguel and a bottle of rioja i know is still in the rack. Toughest test of the week, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnestTurnip Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Just back from Morrison's and they had the lot in stock from JackHammer onwards so I'm going to raise a glass for a couple of reasons tonight but this weekend is definitely D-Day.

ErnestTurnip Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 The current UK guidelines are 14 units a week, I've been wondering if we had to stick to that would folk just not bother drinking or would there be an enjoyable way of doing it? Would spending what we do now a week on say one bottle of expensive stuff do the trick for anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MancWanderer Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Tesco have a Fathers Day promotion on. 1 litre JD for £20 and 750ml Gentleman Jack also £20. That’s cheaper than Costco. Will do my best to save them for a later date.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boogs Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 The Mrs has just jumped up and ran out when the ice cream van came down the street, wondered what the fuck she was doing when she came back in armed with 2 cups of slushy. She's just piled vodka into um and to be fair, it's alright. Nice little cleanser from the brew dog and thornbridge ales I've been supping.
