Well, didn't get a lot done this morning; well, not a lot of free stuff anyhow... toying with modern bind and the like before sending my poor kitten off to be desexed. Vilya didn't know what the cage was for, found it curious at first and then started complaining about how low the ceiling was as she had to crouch lots. I'll get her back tonight all fixed up and anaesthetized for a couple of days. Just (13:45, 18th Jan) got a call from the Vet to say she's fine and doing well.
News flash: my first batch of home brew is getting
better and better! It looks very dark, tastes pretty good
and my housemate,
latent, commented it looked a
lot like Guinness.
When I pulled my keg out of the fridge on Monday night to
serve it up to another friend, she said it tasted pretty
good too, which is always a major bonus. Anyhow, the big
excitement was thet the bubbles were tiny and flowed down
around the outside of the glass just like real stuff. This
was made with a homebrew kit of Coopers Dark Ale.
Good stuff. Unfortunately, mbp
will just
have to wait until next-next time he's in Brisbane to trial
it. Anybody else coming to visit soon is most welcome to
trial the beer.
Worst thing about this morning (10:40am 18th January, 2001)
was I got hit while
travelling into work. Some (now known) moron decided to
turn right form the left hand lane at the Indooroopilly bus
depot into the hook turn street leading to Station road...
Naturally, I didn't like this being on my Honda
ST1100 in
the lane next to him. No indicators, nothing - well, not
until the instant he started moving. I managed to survive
ok, but I did a nice mickey flip/airborne roll and came off
with only a few grazes and bruises to the legs. Shame the
bike wasn't better off for it.
Now to the legal battle to get my bike repaired :(
