Title: I am becoming obsessed with Brewing
Post by: Ciderhead on May 16, 2013, 10:48:04 PM
In Heatons the other day and saw these, of course what did I immediately think they would be useful for?
Clue it wasn't for grilling!

Brewing Bingo! this is fun :D,
I think I'm gonna start a "can you guess what it is" picture posts, and JimmyM, I promise not to post any more pics of my pubic lice and pretend they look like Dempsey  :o

Cara just to let you know loike your watering can is made of some of the nastiest cheapest recycled plastics you can think of and not food grade green pigments either, elevating it to sparge temps will bring out the very best all of those toxins present :o
I'd go back to the aluminium one ;)

That would also have problems when elevated to sparge temps   :P

Thats why its nearly two in morning and I am typing rubbish like this!

Maybe we should forget the cards and the membership details and just get tattooed:

"ME NHC FU"

Maybe a couple of simple rotated crosses with orthogonal tails would help simplify the image
