okay, time for a prompt post to distract us all from the horrors. quote this post with your areas of expertise, interest, hyperfixation and/or obsession and invite your audience to ask you questions about them.

Yeah that's what the troubleshooting guide says but there's only one valve and I haven't got a thing like that. I have a friend coming over to help i'll better with someone here

Now that I've discovered that the sink leaks I think I know what might have caused it

I have no hot water, feel this could be why.

The leccie key doesn't work and when I went to drain the sink it went all over the kitchen floor

😭😭😭😭

Did I mention how much I hate renting

Exciting Friday night plans of cleaning up this monstrosity that was lurking under the old washing machine

Back in Worcester after a lovely afternoon at the Talbot at Knightwick for the green hop festival. Surprised how few people were on the last bus back considering how many were on the way up!

I don't mind events happening if there is a room I don't have to engage with them 😆

They used to have great pizza there, but unfortunately they fell out/did the dirty (depends on who you speak to) on the vendor. I was really disappointed with the replacement but very happy that the vendor found a new home at Ross Cider. I go to Ross more than Bristol so winning!

This is from a new hop that has no names, just identified by a plot of land alpha numeric - K-9.

Unusual vivid orange colour, almost irn bru, marmalade and almond vanilla cake on the taste

It goes all the way to Bromyard and now runs on Saturdays so I'll be able to go say hi to Little Pomona too

Decompressing at the only type of beer festival you need in England at this time of year, green hop beer 💚

Nice to be somewhere familiar

My excursion to the Nottingham Coalfields comes to an end. Nice change of scenery but a very lonely few months. Onto the next chapter

A last night feast

Sarah @hopandwedge.bsky.social · 2d

Last day of my Summer excursion to the Nottingham Coalfields, it was longer than planned. One last trip to Birds, I'll miss the cream cakes, I'll also miss Leah who cuts my hair well, the public transport and some nice drinking establishments...I won't miss everywhere drowning in flags
