I do the ice in mugs with water. Never beer. But I do understand why one would add ice to some beers here. Dilutes the awful taste and can stretch out a beer for a bit longer with the ice melting.
It's funny because until I arrived here I had never seen anyone ever put ice in a beer. The first time a gal brought me a little ice bucket to the table with a Leo I thought. Great., so I moved the ice around and put the bottle in it to keep it cool. Got some funny stares.
I prefer my beer warm.
Had a nice refreshing can of 7UP before, hit the spot better than any beer....well almost :)
Ohhhh. Just stop already Joe. :smileylaughing:Quote:

Picked up a case of the IPA's and if you buy 12, you get a nice glass to enjoy them in. Took a nice refreshing dip in the pool and enjoyed some music.
^ Someone's nicked your hammock.
^^ What's your pool temp like at the moment Stumpy? Ours is staying a lot cooler than normal so far this year.
I only bring that one out if guests come by. I have my hammock underneath by the fridge and TV... Priorities ya know. :)Quote:

Quick calculation in my head Mendy puts you at about 82F. Us "Mercans" are odd...I know. :)Quote:

Cracked open a very nice Angel Envy Rye. Excellent nose. Caramel, Charred Oak. 100 Proof. Definitely not for those who like fruit ciders... :)
Looks like a nice drop JP, what did it taste like?
I concur with the fruity ciders:)
Had a really nice smooth taste as most Ryes do. Why I have been leaning towards Rye's. The draw was short too which is nice versus those long draws with some Bourbons when enjoyed neat.Quote:

I had a few Leos with my Welsh mate tonight... but it's always nice to have a solitary nightcap once you get home to contemplate matters.
I'll be off to Tromso in a week or so and after seven months in Isaan it'll be a shock to the system.
The slightly uneasy pack situation plays on my mind. As does the daughter's education, as does the survival of my new Rosemary plants. Oh, I hope the wife will be OK as well.
Anyway, when I mentioned that I didn't get a single pressie for my B'day this week I lied a little bit... trying to play on the sympathy card. I apologise for that... I did in fact treat myself to a rare bottle of Ya Dong to mark the occasion.

A pina co-orange juice-a along the beach to celebrate getting me nails done.
Didn't get one for the kid because they were 150thb.
'You're allergic to oranges' really is a great lime.
Do you want another Roblox money card....Quote:

You'll have to pay a bit more for postage this time though because I only have a week.

A nice cool down beverage after the temp dropped below 100. :)
My view was not quite as salubrious, I didn't bother with a glass, and the temp was much lower (just had a nice little thunder storm, around 79)

My last Friday night for a while.
And that ain't gin in that bottle!

I'm trying to de-clutter my life of numbers so don't do all of this 'target weight', 'number of steps', 'how many calories' bollox but would expect to lose 4 to 6kg in a 4 week trip.
Do you mean you won't be joining Ed, interminably logging his workouts?
While Marilyn keeps us up to date on what exercise she's thinking of doing?
:D
Looks like we're all drinking a big glass of cheerful, happiness tonight.
Bottom's up! :yup:

^ He's getting on top of that fungal ass crack now then
^ A rare compliment... I think. But yes, I've been 'itch free' for some time now.
I've always been one to clear out the old stock before I go away to work. This may seem a bit pedantic but it's just the way I am.

My last drink for a few weeks. I no longer drink before or on flights to work ... tomorrow I will awake (hopefully) with my head in work mode.
I will really miss this girl.

Have a safe and fruitful trip mate. :)
Safe travels Mendy, about time you got your arse crack back in the saddle to do some work and have some interactions with peeps at work.
Look forward to the pics and piss taking.
I'm having a few of these, my weekend starts now.Quote:

Well 100 degrees already at 11:30a. Groundskeeper things and watering done. Went to ice factory about 5 minutes from our house and picked up some ice blocks and big cubed ice for the mist machines and the cool fan for wife and dogs. Beer 30
