As I look back and survey the wreckage of the past year, it's time to reflect. To think about the last twelve months. Its highs. Its lows. Its boringly in the middle bits. And you can help.
Time for a poll. A year-end, Christmas roundup, jamboree poll. The results will tell us much about our collective year. Were we a success or a drooling, urine-soaked failure?
We'll know on the 22nd of December.
I would like to be more specific than crap beer in what made me gag. Pumpkin beer and non-wit spiced beer, especially the ones with nutmeg, all taste, smell and look rotten.
ReplyDeleteOn the positive side there were many great pissups in a variety of wonderful locations. Galway, Cork, my chair, Portland Maine, the local dive bar (American for rough pub), New York, several crawls around Boston, a warehouse, and I'm not done yet!
An absolute success. I just wonder where the Wednesday recipes went. Perhaps they can be reborn as a monthly feature, especially if you can come up with a Courage RIS recipe. And a happy Christmas to you, your family and all who inhabit this little space of the blogosphere. I hope Lexie gets a nice gift. Drink well.
ReplyDeleteLovely this. Most of your respondents don't even realise you are taking the piss out of them.
ReplyDeleteCruel you are.
I'd like to think of myself as a drooling, urine-soaked success, actually.
ReplyDeleteAd the old joke has it, "doing a good job around here is like pissing yourself in a dark suit. It gives YOU a nice warm feeling, but nobody else notices."
