I'm under 65 and have therefore never eaten porridge

I am under 65 and have eaten heaps. Not for along time though. Anyway, too small a sample size. As a matter of curiosity, if you have never had porridge, what did you have oats in? Stouts don't count.

Fair enough. Great biscuits, shit day. Those poor old merkins would be rolling in their graves to see what they fought for has turned into. Don't get me started!
Let the stout warm up more than what you have and you might see it in a different light. I know you don't need me to tell you how to suck oats so i'll STFU.

Ginger is funny stuff. some are a lot more gingery than others. The lighter the colour, the lighter the flavour I find. (from cooking rather than brewing). Use the cleanest yeast you can get for ginger beer and cider. Us05 or MJ west coast.

I’d only take his Omega Speedmaster. Panerai is for wankers which he is. Don’t like precious metal pieces. Stainless steel all the way.

Wow merkins paid massive overs for some of the pieces. Surely the value of a watch is just the rarity and complication of the timepiece. Crowe is not exactly Marlon Brando Paul Newman or Muhammad Ali when it comes to adding value to its provenance ?

I mean the speedmaster SS moon edition is worth $5k max. Only the ceramic edition is worth 15k.
