I am going to Llantrisant.
Then staying in Bristol tonight on the way back. This evening will include a couple of pre-bash pints with Jeff, which I will need to recover from going to Wales and as I have a lot of work on at the moment.

I intend to celebrate the end of the working week in the usual manner - being largely unproductive for most of the day and then knocking off at 3pm.
Alt: eBay has seen a lot of my money over the years as I have bought many records through it.
You need to know a bit about what you are buying, how much it is truly worth (but also how much it is worth to you, which may be a different amount) and you need to be disciplined about sticking to your ceiling price for an item. It is all to easy to get caught up in a bidding frenzy.
My policy is to only ever bid in the final seconds of the auction. This not only stops me from going over my top price, but also doesn't allow enough time for rival bidders to up their bids.

You know what? It _is_ a wonderful day, one full of wonder and delight, promising many things.
I've decided not to continue on at my current job, that I'm going to move on to pastures new, and score myself a month's wages for fuck all. I don't think I'll be out of a job for long, I more than likely will snapped up at my prices. OH BOY. I saw a video game company looking for someone like me, I might be able to score myself some beta tests or some shit like that.
I wonder if I can find a company that'll let me bring a pet to work, there are a few that do that, I'd get a dog if I could do that.

Ebay is great if you want hard to find stuff at a low price, its fucking shit if you are selling stuff on it because they now take 10% rather than the previous 5% which was acceptable. Then listing fees, then they charge you for accepting a Paypal payment despite all being the same fucking company. Paypal are fucking evil so don't get me started. Just imagine how many millions of pounds of our money they have in their system. Now how much money do you think they are earning from our money being in their system?

How long will you be keeping it in the bottle, before you pour it down your neck, and end up a sodden mess?

No twist bottles, and only standard size.
Brown and green are the best, because light can damage the beer. Although, sticking it in a cupboard also helps.

Yeah I made a spiced beetroot wine once, in a brown demijohn, and it came out a lovely ruby colour.
The nest lot, the light got to it, and it was a grubby brown colour. Still tasted ok, just wank to look at.

No, it's to do with the neck of the bottle.
If you are using a crown capper you need the neck to be of a certain type or the capper can't grip it properly to push the cap on.

The thing says 2-3 weeks for the best flavour but they'll be ready in a week.
They say the flavour improves as the CO2 bubbles get smaller, but that sounds like shit to me.

It's sort of shit and sort of not.
the bubbles get smaller with increased pressure, which comes from more CO2 from a longer bottle ferment, which changes the solubility equilibrium of the CO2:carbonic acid, so changes the flavour.
However, there aren't really that many bubbles until you actually open the bottle, at which point it's at AP and so all bubbles are more or less the same size.

I thought he was quite big so I was surprised when I found out his Walther PPK is so tiny.

argue with me that an unusually big thing standing next to an unusually small thing wouldn't mess up your sense of scale
