    Morning :D

    A day off here today.
    Combination of a doctor's appointment (my annual MoT, as it where) and my council tenancy Gas safety check on the flat. In fact the engineer has just arrived and is admiring my brewery set-up...

    Be back soonish with an update...

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Ok all done with the Gas Safety Check and a wee blether about homebrew.
    The engineer "used to do it years ago", I have a feeling he'll be taking it up again, as he was really interested in where I got my stuff from and what the costs were and what's available these days etc.

    So, for rest of today, I have my annual health MoT at 11.20 and then the rest of day is mine :D

    Hoping you all have great days wherever you are and whatever you're doing

    Hi US, just read through your diary, what a year!

    Loving your homebrew set up. My dad used to do cider years and years ago, and my grandad was one for doing dandelion wine, which put me off home made wine for life, it was like paint stripper:rotfl:

    Shame I don't like ale it I might be tempted to give it a go.......
    Debt free Feb 2021 🎉

    Thanks for visiting Drawingaline
    There are many types and flavours of ales and beers and I'm sure there are a few that you would like ;)
    I'm on a few Homebrew forums and it would surprise you the variety that exists, like everything else related to food and drink it is all about taste, flavour and finding yours...

    My Health Check (personal MoT ;) ) went well today and everything seems to be under control, no major concerns... :D

    Bought some nice new cushions and covers for living room from Wilko today and all is cosy or Hygge as folks seem to saying these days (we really do need an eye rolly smilie lol )

    Hope everyone has had good days today

    The rolls eye smillie was removed a few years ago after it was misused.

    If it was removed for misuse it must have been REALLY bad
