Triple Tipple

Had one of these at the weekend, it's a TIPA or Triple IPA, made down in Cornwall by Verdant it's their annual "Puttty" offering, deep, rich, thick and bursting with hop flavour a real assault on the senses. I managed to snag one of these last year too and wrote about it at the time, I would say that this years beer is more balanced, another triple T winner!

Same ole, same ole...

It would appear that the latest Epstein avoidance scheme trumped up by, well, you know who, means that the shopping malls of the desert are being attacked by the parties of God.. I'm not sure how this particular member matching contest will turn out but a couple of things are guaranteed, firstly plenty of totally innocent people will lose their lives, secondly nothing will be achieved and lastly shares in the industrial-military complex will rise, praise be...

Feelin the heat

I thought this was interesting, the number of days per year when the temperature exceeded 30 degrees Centigrade comparing the first halves of two decades 20 years apart.

Friday Smirk

It's a good point made by the boys here, there's something sinister about most religions in that they demand that their petty conformities become compulsory in society, worst of these is "love" and the surrender of our rational faculties, the very definition of sadomasochism..

Thoughts on a scandal

Here are my thoughts on the whole  Andrew/Mandelson thing going on at the moment..

They are both career liars, parasites and grifters so don't bother with an expensive investigation and trial, just sequester the money direct from their offshore accounts and make them do community service, in Ukraine..

Midweek Mirth

What with cold snaps and all of the rain the UK has had over the last couple of months I suspect there are many towns up and down the country that feel this way..

DEYA day

Cracked open one of these on Saturday evening. Left over from my Christmas stash it's a hazy pale ale from Cheltenham maestros DEYA called "Magazine Cover" it's delicious fruity combo of  classic US hops including Simcoe, Citra and Mosaic, perfect for a rainy weekend!
