Dad stories
"Do anything good for your birthday?" one of your friendly B3TA moderator team asked in one of those father/son phone calls that last two minutes. "Yep," he said, "Your mum." Tell us about dads, lack of dad and being a dad.

Home-made Rice Wine
Back in the beige days of the 1970s, my Dad became interested in home wine-making, usually from grape concentrate but on occasion, turning to less popular options. One memorable experimental concoction aimed to produce a kind of SE London Sake, and began by steeping rice in water. Straining the reeking mess through muslin after a week or so was easy enough but, in his attempt to get the very last drops of potential booze from his mulch, Dad squeezed just a bit too hard. The muslin split from side to side, the ol'man swore loud enough to stun the budgie in the next room and Mum was still finding hunks of dried-up rice stuck behind the kitchen appliances six months later.
