It's got to be the wolverine one, although I would probably settle for the cossack hat in black bear. [ 03. December 2003, 01:25 PM: Message edited by: corydoras ]

I want one, genuine coon-hide for me. The fox and coyote one look a bit woosey.

I must be being strage too. I spotted them as well

I'll go along with that. Had perch in France once and it was dix-sur-dix.

I have been fishing since I was a nipper and I have never considered it a 'sport' as far as I was concerned. I don't compete, I have never been involved in a match in my life. The very idea of sitting all day on the side of some river bashing bleak with liquidised worms leaves me cold. As far as I am concerned, fishing is a pastime.

Actually that was our own Churchill to Lady Astor.

No, these are definately BIG onions [ 06. November 2003, 07:13 PM: Message edited by: corydoras ]

Probably a mole!

A blind man enters a Ladies Bar by mistake. He finds his way to a barstool and orders a drink. After sitting there for a while, he yells to the bartender, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke?" The bar immediately falls absolutely quiet. In a very deep, husky voice, the woman next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, sir, I think it is just fair - giving that you are blind - that you should know five things: 1. The bartender is a blonde girl. 2. The bouncer is a blonde girl. 3. I'm a 6 feet tall, 220 lb. blonde woman with a black belt in karate. 4. The woman sitting next to me is blonde and a professional weightlifter. 5. The lady to your right is a blonde and a professional wrestler. Now think about it seriously, Mister. Do you still wanna tell that joke? The blind man thinks for a second, shakes his head, and declares, "Nah, not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times.

Ahh! How I love that sound.

Amen to that!And there are a damned sight more of the latter than their are of the former

Don't filter it through anything at this stage. There is really no need and you might just kill the ferment or set it back. Just rack it into demi-johns and put an airlock on. An even better plan would be to get a hold of a proper 25 litre fermenting bin and ferment out the must in this. The more bulk you have the more stable will be the fermentation. I would caution against adding too much (any) rice to wine. Rice=starch=cloudy wine IMHO. Chester is right about the heating mat, although personally I like the immersion type heaters (they look a bit like fish tank heaters, they probably are fish tank heaters)

Know mate, it is like living in bloody Bosnia!

About a week is fine. The longer the must is in the fermenting bin, the greater the chance there is that it will get infected by a vinegar fly and you will end up with 5 gallons of wine vinegar. When making wine with drupes (fruits with stones in) or any other fruit that makes good jam, it is a good idea to add some pectolase before the fermentation starts or you may end up with a cloudy wine that will not clear.

Next time you hit a tanker, just make sure that you are really close to it first (like within a couple of hundred yards)

Littlefeathers How much must did you make?

Yeah, but I'm proud of it

I hate to be a pedant but... the ship in the piccie is a bulkie (bulk carrier) not a tanker, and yes you can still be seasick on one of them. [ 19. September 2003, 08:58 AM: Message edited by: corydoras ]

Yeah, but you thought it

How much fruit? How much water? How much sugar? What kind of yeast? I'll probably have some more questions, but that'll do for now. I hope you sterilised everything with Milton or something similar first. [ 18. September 2003, 05:35 PM: Message edited by: corydoras ]

It looks like she will be knockin' your door soon Newt. Click here for BBC News item.

So how do the cable companies' broadband networks work then Paul? Do they use copper or fiber? Where does the RF come in?
