Other than visiting the brewery itself, the only other way to buy the WHOA (wet-hopped oatmeal ale) is online, and you can only get the 24-bottle pack. I didn't want that many.

Just back from my beer-buying trip. Came home from the brewery with a dozen 330 ml botes of their limited release wet-hopped oatmeal ale. I also had a couple of ½-pints of their new Almighty Light beer while chatting with other patrons at tbe bar. It's a very well-flavoured low-alcohol lager, 2.7% ABV.

TIL that hops grow on bines, not vines.

@kdfrawg To quote Steven Wright: "For my birthday I got a humidifier and a de-humidifier…I put them in the same room and let them fight it out…"

Almost midnight, 20˚C, 83% humidity. Been running the evaporative cooler in the bedroom for 7 hours, just refilled it with 7 litres of water. It's not hot but too muggy to get away without using some sort of cooler.

I do get the impression the people in the supermarket who do the pricing don't quite know of different package sizes. I've just bought a 1 kg bag of frozen green curry prawn gyoza dumplings which went through the scanner at the checkout as a ¾ kg bag.

I hate it when people ask me what I'll be doing in three years. I only have 2020 vision in one eye.

One of our Men's Shed member is 75 & two years ago had ½ his right lung & ⅓ of his left removed due to lung cancer - he's going really well now, still pretty fit.

@kdfrawg We usually get biggish Richter numbers but very deep down. mostly in the region of the giant earthworms https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GiantGippslandearthworm - so much so that local Aboriginal legend explains the tremors as being the underground worm movement.

And what sort of device is "this thing?"
