This photo, passed on by a friend, was taken in Denmark. It prompts me to resurrect the #extremecivilisation hashtag, used to describe the manufacture of things no one needs.

Bitburgers winterbok. An excellent beer, reminiscent of a classic Belgian triple, minus the sugars they use nowadays. At 7%, packs a punch too.

Whisky marmalade time, just omit the water in recipe and add any old whisky you have. Delicious on buttered toast. I once used laphroag and it was divine but I can't afford that every time. Works well with a cheap blend too...the alcohol evaporates leaving just the taste.

You rarely see Oettingers beers on social media. I must say 10,99 euros for 20 reinheitsgebot beers it is great value. Whilst not being a schneider, its a decent beer. Produced without sugars or inferior ingredients.

My last October fest beer.I go from Brussels to Aachen for my beers, normally they have Paulaner, this time they had the Spaten. My case of 20 is now gone. A great beer, I'd buy it again this year.

At the root of all our problems stands one travesty: politicians’ surrender to the super-rich | George Monbiot
There are many excuses for failing to tax the ultra-wealthy. The truth is that governments don’t tackle the problem because they don’t want to, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Now that 'we' are 'running' Venezuela, what’s actually being done for the people? Over half the country lives in extreme poverty and needs immediate help. Millions are without shelter, healthcare, or protection from violence. Is anyone actually going to 'run' towards helping them?
