My neighbour says the 0% Guinness is good although I haven't tried it yet. I went through quite a few of the zero beers and they all had a slightly odd taste. I think Heineken was a better one. I settled on sofa water with ice and a slice in the end. Refreshing and cheap!

I love my mother tongue. Yes, a grunt can indicate that my dearly beloved considers his tea cup to be sufficiently filled with fresh tea, but a “thank you” sounds so much nicer, don’t you think?

A cautonary tale for storing apples
We store our apples in our porch which is unheated. Every few weeks I go through them and remove any damaged ones which go out into the orchard for the birds to feed on.

Orchid aerial roots
Agree with the others. the aerial roots do look messy but that is what the plant does. If you find that some are very very brown with no growing tips then those could be cut back.

Just bought a new turntable to replace the last one I bought in 1979. Having such fun rediscovering my own record collection. These guys wrote so many lovely songs.
