The promise of beer

I've had a pretty full-on week on necropsy, and have seen some interesting diseases and spectacular lesions (and maybe getting a reputation for being a bit tin-arse at finding cool brain lesions). A tip for people who think their dog might be rabid and want it tested: if you euthanase it by shooting it in the head with a high calibre pistol, most of the brain goes bye-byes. Not ideal.

We finally have a TV.... Our neighbours were getting rid of their 27" TV and cabinet, and thought of us. They even helped move it in. I think that was about the third TV we've been offered - people here really like to give stuff away.


Some of the beer packaging here really cracks us up - you'll probably need to click on these to enlarge them to readable sizes:



I've yet to find a beer that truly whitens as it cleans, so it's refreshing to finally find an example of honest labelling...



We decided to have "ethnic" food the other night.... And what can beat "Irish O'Garlic" for a sausage flavour?



Mort spent all day today helping set up for the Septembeerfest tomorrow, I think there will be 63 different beers, and at least one keg of Hoegaarden.... Check out this amazing keg-bar:



With bottle-hub-caps - totally awesome.
