Pine beer actually sounds delicious.

Edit: I presume this is home brew. Do you leave them in during fermentation or during the boil?

I used to add crushed berries to cider during fermentation then remove the bits at the end. It was amazing. I’ll get back to it some day.

Yeah that’s the one I just watched it through. Thanks for the link. Absolutely reckless behaviour from the owner after the previous crack event on dive 80 to go down again. Just so many bad choices.

Fascinating that they had the data to tell them it wasn’t safe and just ploughed ahead without examining it.

What the fuck? That’s mental. I’d never heard that little nugget before.

Also a h person on herb as is my entire country.

I have two:

I pronounce the d in Wednesday. Like wedns-day.

Vagaries - vag-air-ees. I think this is an Irish thing.

I say it as two syllables: cray-on.

I have never heard it pronounced any other way. Not American though (and I suppose you may not be either!).

I agree with all of that but some folks just aren’t clear communicators and / or English isn’t their first language so unless it’s a real workload to read, I’m generally grand with it.

I actually find the general standard of text posts on here very high. I’d bet money that the number of correctly used commas per post here is way higher than the internet average, though that’s purely anecdotal.

Couldn’t agree more.

Our kitchen table was pretty expensive when we got it and is destroyed from a heap of kids use and family meals over about 22 years. It is firmly agreed (by them too) that when my wife and I die it will be the only thing the kids fight over possession of.
