I find coffee porters are ok until you get to about half-way down the pint, when they outstay their welcome. See also, ginger infused beers.

Yes.

Titanic's Plum Porter is awesome, btw.

Yeah that's a decent beer. I think that dark beers like stouts and porters actually work better in cask.

Vaguely interesting:

Saltaire Brewery do a beer called Cascade. Last year, i think it was, your linear time confuses me, they casked a load up in wooden barrels, rather than the normal ones. Its taste was different. It was much more rounded. Lovely, it was.

TIFU by forgetting to tip a waitress. On realising my error, I returned to the establishment and paid up. Poor form Kern.

I think that and being powerless to stop people cheering on the rise of fascism contributes to a great feeling of anger, but Christ I shouldn't be taking it out on stuff that I am trying to pack into boxes (Moving house next weekend).

Upside - fitting things into boxes is easier after rage smash.

Only today? I've been angry and upset about it (upset about being constantly angry, that is) for several months. Typical grumpy old man, I am.

The future scares the crap out of me.

What a waste of money. I bought a 911 for £9.40 on Tuesday.

No, because I paid in exact money.

You ball of seething... oh, sorry, we already did that.

Cavey · **Posted:** Mon Jan 30, 2017 13:51

I actually saw 911 at a charity Halloween ball in Manchester year before last - they performed for free.
We were robbed.

They must all be in their 40s by now. I imagine they're not going to appeal to the same tween demographic as they once did.

myp · **Posted:** Mon Jan 30, 2017 14:01

You could say.. they're close to needing to call 911 soon.

Because of age-related ailments.

Cavey · **Posted:** Mon Jan 30, 2017 14:03

Yeah I certainly can't talk on that score but they did look pretty ropey lol.

Just a bunch of old geezers prancing around doing karaoke.

Alas, just an ice hockey puck rather than a dancing nymph. It was a free twitter-based 'guess when the first goal will be scored' sweepstake. I said 18 minutes, not because I had any idea how well either side would defend, but just because it's a favourite number.

Couldn't make the game last night, but by all accounts it was a tense and brutal one, with Oxford finally winning.

We're creating two new services at work, and we're going through the normal stupid naming process. I've suggested STORMHAMMER and KILLFURY and it seems like they're getting some traction.

i'm quite seriously considering going and buying this dog:

They say you should always see the puppy with the mum, but the mum appears to be either dead or AWOL, which is vaguely suspicious. Then again it's not a pedigree so is unlikely to be nicked.
And on the other hand SO CUTE
And we really do want a Bedlington-based dog.

Not sure how a long-distance relationship with a dog is going to work out really.

What if the dog doesn't understand Singapore-ese?
