fresher beer

Double bollocks. It all goes through the pasteuriser which is the biggest flavour killer of them all!

Keeps it fresher, blocks light, seals completely. They’re regarded as more of the premium option in craft beer

Only certain beers are affected by light hence the reason some are in brown glass as this filters out the UV etc. Beers in clear glass are are so full of chemicals it no longer matters. People fall for the marketing bollocks of cans. At the end of the day they are cheaper to buy than several tonnes of glass.

Two weeks to send a birthday card from Edinburgh to London! I wonder if they have a lot of staff self isolating because that’s a ridiculous amount of time for a letter to arrive!

Anyone else thought about carrying this on for a year?

It’s crossed my mind recently.

What have you all learned?

That getting up off my butt is a lot easier than I thought, especially when I mix up the exercise types.

Edit – and Yoga gets you out a hole when you really need a rest!

Edit Edit – Beginner Yoga that is!

I hope that Racing Point and Stroll go backwards next year without his contribution. A bit mean perhaps, but 🤷🏻‍♂️

My sentiments exactly!

Agree. It’s hardly the driver selecting the tyres! Absolutely gutted for Russell.

🤣 downward hair of the dog!

Touché

Try drunk Yoga, I just have. It’s a different kind of challenge 😂

Really need a proper explanation as to how he escaped though.

I read the book on his escape. As Drac says, v.slow digestive system and he managed to repair his jet pack.

I’ve genuinely never been so excited about a TV program in years! Might be something to do with the Bobafett tattoo I have!

At last some decent photos 😂😉

Slight gain! Back to hovering about the 83kg mark which I just can’t seem to stay below!!!

Just had a recount. Stood on the scales again and I’m 82.5kg so I’m logging that as a win!!

Cliveden. Its not by the sea but its on the banks of the Thames with some nice walks down to the river. I got engaged there many moons ago and loved the place.

Surely that’s an additional £500 they’re talking about. The Tories are lovely these days!

Sometimes coming home cream crackered and the thought of grinding through half and hour seems daunting.

On days like that I do a beginners Yoga video on YouTube.

Catalina is one of the nicest looking aircraft

Yup! It’s been one of my favourites since childhood!

Good news @ahsat.

50 Miles in November challenge.

I wasn’t doing this but just checked mileage out of interest. 49.6 miles. 🙄 typical!

No, but you they should take a long hard look at yourself themselves!

I’ve already entered the Frontier 300 so might try this as a warm up!

I think it’s only worth it if you want to compare yourself with others. I also got fed up with a mate thinking everything I did on Strava was aimed at beating him. I have no interest in either things so gave up my subscription and I’ve not missed it one bit.

Dammit, looks like there’s no reason not to!

Ahh! So you came here looking for excuses! Rumbled 😂😂

Visible chunk out the Halo when they were lifting it onto the truck!

Surely there should be tyres instead of a metal barrier on that section. Fairly badly designed!

I can’t believe he’s still alive!! Car ripped in half

Bloody Hell!!

Been wondering this for a while: what is a decent translation of “dreich” to English? I’m guessing “grim” would probably cover it, but is there a better word?

Dreich is not quite as bad as grim but can’t think of an equivalent.

It made us all smile.

Made me smile too, that’s hilarious!!

Every ride. Especially trail centres as half the surfaces are concrete all weather!

A bike that fits you properly in the first instance, even one with gimmicky suspension will still cause you pain or fatigue if it isn’t the right size or the set up is poor

I wonder if this is the main issue? I’m 5’10 and always seem to be in between sizes. On a gravel bike should I size up or down or is it not as easy as that?

Seven smoothies for breakfast, 7 salad lunches, 7 days of exercise, 7 healthy evening meals, no beer and very little snacks and still the same weight as last week!!!!

Sorry for the shoddy photo. It’s the only one I took.

Taken after the pub? Happy birthday.

A few HIIT sessions, couple of turbos, 2 6km runs, seven salads, 7 smoothies and I’m still the same weight I was in September!!

A lot bloody fitter tho so there is an up side!

Edit- And no Beer!!

Yeah, take care ahsat.

@sirromj It was an exercise in patience so I’d count it 😂

I recently bought Fizik Terra bar tape which I’m impressed with. Really comfy and grippy so would highly recommend (disclaimer- I have little experience of other bar tapes!)

Running and hiking for me this weekend. Got my fastest 10k at 46.53 on Saturday which I’m rather chuffed with! Really loving this challenge as I would never have exercised this much normally and it’s made me try loads of different types of exercise.

Poor show from me this week! Nearly back to my starting weight even with exercising everyday and 160km on the bike. I have hovered around this weight since August and just can’t seem to get under it!!!!!

Bloons TD5. I started it years ago and I’m still at it!

30 – 40 a day before I stopped. When the doctor asked me about my habit I told him ”if I coughed up my left lung I’d light a cigarette while pondering what just happened!” Tried many things over the years but only thing that worked for me was Champix. Used it for 14 weeks and never had a cigarette in the 12 years since. Don’t miss it at all but none of my mates can believe I’m still off them! I’d definitely recommend Champix.

It’s nice to nestle.

That should be the marketing line 😂

83kg this morning so up from last week 😡 Must be all the exercise I’m doing, all the fat turning to muscle 🙄 (nothing to do with all the biscuits I’ve pinched this week!)

On the plus side it’s not covid.

🥳🥳
