What are you doing/done today

What are you doing/done today ? not a direct poll but I thought that it would be interesting to see a snapshot of a day in the life of a E.F. member did it go to plan what problems did you overcome.

Talking of vino.. I'm just supping Brewgooder clean water lager, brewed by Brewdog for a clean water charity. And in a moment I shall be venturing downstairs to grab a bottle of Brains SA as @Specialist suggested it's nice tipple

 

[Toneyz]

Shopping, unpacking the shopping, putting the shopping away, lunch and a nice bottle of vino

I think that deserves one Pete

 

[SparkyChick]

And for the record, the Brains SA was indeed a nice tipple, just a shame I only had one bottle

if you like the SA, try these. your local spar or bargain booze should have.

Theakson's Old Peculier, Marston's Old Empire, Moreton's Speckled Hen, and loads more usually available @ 3 for a fiver.

Tip: do not cool to much in fridge, should be drunk @ 10 -12 deg.

Tried the old speckled hen a while back, not a fan of that one.
What about Newcastle Brown ? Lovely chilled & much better straight from the bottle, glasses are for wimps

Glad you liked it SC, they do a Dark mild as well. Not bad chilled, especially after a day on the tools.
Not that I'd know anything about popping in for a pint on the way home from work of course, but my grandad told of things like that happening in years gone by.
Think Tel & Pete might know more about it

Flipping heck, I must have been drunk to have missed these recent posts. On Saturday, we went to the local carnival, to enter my lads doggie in the doggie show.

Whilst there, I found the beer tent, and as it was rather hot, I thought I might quaff a pint while we waited. Unfortunately, there was a wait 'cos of a large queue in front, with idiots ordering diet cokes

When I got me pint, it was very enjoyable, and the doggie won a 2nd & two 3rds. Would of had a 1st, but we forgot to clip her nails.

I like a nice cold Guiness shandy in the warm weather.

Are you completely bonkers, next you'll be adding blackcurrant cordial to the black stuff

Nope, find it really refreshing as a first pint. Don't like blackcurrant cordial
Only black stuff I drink other than Guiness is Woods Navy rum.

Got a lighting fault find job on this morning. Relatively new build and I'll be up in the loft working out why lights don't work. Predicting a morning of rectifying rubbish junctions
