Tried a couple of different English mid-strength (3.6%) draught beers in 500ml cans in the last week. The brews were John Smith’s Smooth Bitter & Tetley’s Smooth Ale.
Tetley’s was disappointing: didn’t help that each of the four cans lost about 15% of their contents upon opening - I had to hold it over the kitchen sink to avoid spillage on other surfaces.
Disappointed in the taste as well. Too insipid. John Smith’s was a maltier, more bitter brew. I’d definitely buy it again.
@sumudu: You’re a Setapp user, right? Well, I’ve seen a new app there called Unite. It’s for making Site-specific browsers, similar to Fluid app but with a much greater number of settings in the Preferences.
I’m in the process of migrating my Fluid apps to Unite apps.
I think you’ll like it, I do.
The section of foot that’s blistered & covered with a burn dressing has been itching for at least 24 hours. I’ve been strongly resisting rubbing the spot but I don’t know how successful I have been.
Dr told me if the blisters had burst before the dressing was applied, then the danger of infection would be high & such an infection would take a long time to heal. No fun there. He prescribed a particulat antibiotic but not the one he wanted to prescribe.
Because some numpty somewhere in the system let the supply get drastically depleted to the extent the product is unavailable.
About time for my next antibiotic. The burned area on my foot is more extensive than I originally thought, around 3 inches ong & one inch wide, with (fortunately) only ⅓ of it being actively blistered. The rest of the pink area, my GP said, had the potential to blister as well but not now a proper burn dressing has been applied.
@matigo I can’t see any point in the 64 GB model: it’s essentially a streaming device.

Just back from the doc: diagnosis: 1st degree burn to upper foot, only part of the affected area is actively blistered but the rest of it could have gone the same way. Burns dressing applied, given antibiotics to take 3 times daily. Leave dressing on for up to 10 days, OK if it gets wet, if so, pat dry.
Nurses commended me on applying correct first aid.
Burned foot is mostly OK now, just need to fasten my shoe a bit looser as otherwise it puts pressure on the blister that formed.
I never slept last night, not a wink due to pain & effective treatment. At least four times I sat outside the shower recess with my foot inside it under a slow stream of cold water for up to 30 minutes at at time.
This was interspersed with use of a sunburn-relief aloe vera extract spray between dunking episodes.
Virtually pain-free today except when the shoe put pressure on the blister.
Greatly relieved.
I was getting irritated with the Apple TV needing to be restarted whenever it lost WiFi connection, not good with a streaming box thingie.
It was happening far too frequently.
Then I remembered I wasn’t using a Powerline Ethernet setup because I didn’t have enough cables. Bought another cable & had it working in minutes.
Very impressed, video podcasts on a certain network known to @streakmachine never would even start up when using WiFi. No problems when using the hardwired option even when it’s multiplexed over the internal power cabling.
Foot seems to be mostly OK now. Continued cold running water flushes interspersed with aloe vera extract spray treatment has removed all traces of pain from the affected area. There’s a minor blister forming.
Yet to try wearing shoes though.
