A busy week

Though I haven't been performing paid work for almost four years now, that doesn't mean I'm idle.

I was going to say that I write every day. But that's not quite true. Some days are fully occupied by research. 

Like this week. Much of which was spent going through Shepherd Neame's brewing records from 1971. A process which was slightly more complicated than I expected. And left me with some dilemmas. Like what do I do with the primings. And then there was the weird Stout parti-gyle.

It's nice to not be in a rush. To have the time to spend on proper research. Which is something I genuinely enjoy. Despite the tedium of extracting details from dozens of brewing records.

In this way, every week is a busy week for me. Which is good. It stops me just vegetating now paid employment is but a distant memory.
