Our lads prefer pint cans over little 'uns so a bit of a pain.
AAMOI, do they host and provide the same?

If not, give your inner Yorkshireman some CPR!

Pints get warm too quickly, thats why the Spanish drink cañas, it's only the English that drink pints. The best way is to copy the Aussies, cold can in a beer cozy, it keeps a cold beer cold the longest.

I have loads of pint glasses in the bar fridge ;)
The BBQs are in the cooler evenings.

I drink 400ml beers in daytime to keep cool.

On my recent visit to Corfu, I noticed that in pretty much all the bars a 'large' beer was 400ml.

The only method I've ever seen Aussies use to stop beer warming up is to neck it as quickly as possible after it comes out of the cool box.

The problem is now being escalated to the Technical Team FFS - one hour wasted :roll:

Mean time, I still can't watch the old series of Sewing Bee - which I am only wanting to do cos it's bastard pissing down outside, AGAIN :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack: :angry-cussingblack:




As an aside - I've never really had a "needs to be" kind of list for a partner, but I've now put computer techy and able to help with bike mechaniky stuff on that list!! (Only other thing is tall :lol: )

Email today from Scottish Gas....

Ofgem, the independent energy regulator, is lowering the energy price cap from 1st July 2024. This means you’ll be paying less per year, for your energy. Estimated £112.31 a year. Fecking minted :lol:
