I smell beer.

I smell beer.

Most do, It's Australia Day on the 26th!

I'm smelling one right now......matter of fact, I can MORE than smell it....

As patriotic as I might be, there's nothing quite like a Grolsch Pilsner.

Nice! - for those outside of Australia the tag line is from the "VB Beer" ads is "....matter of fact I've got it now".... These ads have run for decades, and here is a sample

... and no ... we don't drink Fosters - I don't think you can even buy it in Australia.  Go to the UK if you want one where they serve it on tap   Last I was in the UK, I was shocked to see Fosters on Tap and asked the Bar Waitress "Who Drinks Fosters?"  Without blinking an eyelid she replied "Weak Men".

...and this is the Downfall of Australian Society!  Sipping their trendy beers instead of sculling a REAL beer (or is that skoling)  See, this is what occupies us, not Red or Blue... but Scull or Skol! 

Disclaimer:  I don't like Beer.  Well not the Aussie Larger (read Heat Burn in a Glass).  The POMS make some good stuff; dark, warm, and tasty but it does not work well on a 40c day (works great over there on a dark raining day in a 1,000 year old pub next to the fire where the dogs are sleeping) .  I hope I don't get expelled now I've been "outed" as a Fake Aussie!

My last off-topic post.....I promise (but Jim, you did start this....p'raps you weren't aware of just how much we can be distracted by discussions of beer...)

Maaaate....do yerself a favour and go to Dan's, grab a six pack of Grolsch and a six pack of Three Sheets (from the Lord Nelson brewery in the Rocks). You'll never be the same again! The warmth of flavour (not temp) and the hops in Grolsch are outstanding (fabulous hot weather beer), as is the Apricot hints in 3 Sheets. Or a Growler of Newtowner (from Camperdown).

Errrr, you may have to explain what a 40 cent day is...

(it's 104°F - darn hot!)

Don't poke Jim!  He is old and cranky and still thinks "Customary Units" rules.... just the USA and 2 others!  One of the benefits of being an Admin is I can change his Avatar to "I love Metric" ... but that lasts about 40 secs.
