Sports dont come close to SEIV GOld??

Chardo Mon, are you strange? are you a man? are you a woolly-woofter?

I remember the Argentina - England match from the 1998 World Cup - I was in a really cool bar in London surrounded by young ladies.. it was hot, it was sweaty, tensions were running high and all I can say it wss a meld between a really good wet teeshirt competition and a pheromone sandwich

"3 Lions on your shirt, Jules Rime still gleaming, 30 years of hurt, never stopped me dreaming"

Enguuulllaaaaanddddd Engullllaaaaannnnndd Engulllaaaaanndd

And as for being partisan.... well, you Yanks are rather good at being partisan (anyone remember the Salt Lake winter Olympics and 3 weeks of gung ho Americanism...)

I dont eat eggs, they come out of chickens' bottoms

Walmart, unfortunately I am not going home before I fly out to the Land of the Dried Squid so I cannot send my game to you

Please start without me if necessary as I might just decide to abandon the current Mrs GT and stay out in Japan with a geisha

"Brewing" is the key word here. Any micro brewery will naturally tend to produce better ale than the mass produced stuff you get (I mean budweiser and coors and miller is absolute cack) as will the love and care you put into your own idea.

Let me introduce you to one of my brother's business interests. He has a timeshare style brewery - you join up, pay a fee a that entiels you to brewing time in the professionally run professional brewery - If I recall an initial fee of �50 plus �5 a month entitles you to enough time to brew about 25 gallons - sounds expensive BUT it is done professionally, to your own requirements and/or recipy, by professionsla using professional ingredients - you can even have your own labels printed and bottles made and I think it works out at about 60p per imperial pint.

The majority of the beer is better than 'saleable' standard, some of it is truly superb

I am a member (hell this is family) and I get the beer delivered to me up here 300 miles from the brewery. Costs peanuts but I currently have about 60 litre bottles of 'GT's old breastrub', a nice session ale using kentish golden hops and with a touch of coriander

He has a 2 year waiting list. Great idea

Tell your brother he is most fortunate to have brewskis available at his leisure. AAhhh just the thought of making ones own brewski. I can see it now, Mac's Wonder Brewski, The Brewski of all Brewski's, Good for what ale's you, picks you up and then sloshes you down. AND no Hangovers....
I'd be a millionaire within a week.... aaaahhhh retirement in style..

PS. everyone, Tigga will be gone again, The Tabs on him.. The Cantina does sell & have most glorious food as well as liquid nourishment. I'll have some scrambled eggs with cheese, bacon, hash browns and rye toast, oh and the Tigga approved of his tab being used while he's away, he said eat drink and be merry as he will be gone for about a week and didn't want us to feel blue

Brewskis tonight in the Cantina around 10pm...the bartender extended Tiggas credit for his tab for the next week...... tks Tigs.. we knew you were a jolly old soul... better make it between 10 and 10;30, wife just emailed me and said we're going shopping tonight,,,,, after that I'll be looking foreward to having 1 or 2, I hate shopping, that is unless its for something I might enjoy, like computer games......

a munching, stuffing, mac

and Tigga seeks to remind the lot of you that he is tighter than a duck's chuff hole and you have as much chance of getting a brew (and especially a meal) out of the Tigga as you do of getting your bits'n'bobs with britney!

Mac, you have some real dietary problems - I think you should try a nice Morroccan dish, something like oyster charenntaise, a lamb tagine with jewelled cous cous (heavy on the apricots), a vegetable chermoula with a lime tzatziki and maybe some brondade - followed by calvados as a digestiv...no that is pub food

PS I should introduce you to my brother Steve - he doesnt do computer games other than Cutthroats and Rogue Squadron - but he proves I am the runt of the family, he is 6 foot 6 tall, absolutely no fat and weighs about 320 pounds. He represented our county in running, swimming and judo. He also has a beard and puts platts in it - I still havnt found anyone except my mum who is willing to tell him he looks a pratt with them

GT, your cuisine sounds interesting, however, I do not think my interior designs would take gently to apricots, oysters, and the rest this early in the morning, (here it is only 9am) so even tho I'm willing to try various dishes from around the world, I must stick with scrambled eggs with cheese, bacon, hash browns and rye toast, oh and a good cup of coffee, siigghhhh, ever get that sleepy feeling after stuffing yourself with palible delights,, yawn

zzzzzzzzzzzzzz mac

Sports vs Space Empires?
I know I’m strange. I happily played Space Empires through the Super Bowl and the Boston Marathon. The marathon passes my apartment close enough to hear the crowd cheering. I knew when the first wheel chair, male runner, and female runner went by. The Supper bowl I followed by the sound and vibrations in the apartment building I live in.
Of Brews and Brewing, those were the days. I fully concur with the consensus of American brews. I like Guinness the most but there are a couple of Ales from England I enjoy depending on the weather. Along with playing Space Empires toooooo much and other by products of my Attention Deficit Disorder I can not drink more than the occasional glass of wine. Now a days I concentrate on using the Gryphin Position while Circling the Wagons with my sweethearte and our friends.

< Political Rant >
If you knew how much the Coors people trashed the environment in their area you would not drink the stuff.

Mac and company,
I'm replying to your post in the "How Old Are You"
Thread
While no one here will flame anyone. There are certain people who will get ignored. I guess you might say I am <b>very</b> “Politically Correct” in some areas. There is one handle here I will not reply to because it offends me and others. Others would say I am too serious. Both are true.
Peace bro

Gryph - I agree with you, I am a bit of a treehugger myself. As for the Coors, it is sad about the environmental aspect of it but I personally dont drink the beer cos it tastes like piss.

I try to be open-minded about political correctness but I due think some people's handles and signatures are inappropriate.

Mephisto pointed this out to one young chap on the 'How old are you' thread. I think he did the right thing.

Gryphin, how could you not respond to Mac5732.. there is nothing wrong with him that euthanasia wouldn't cure
