No offence taken John on the XXXX,. although I must admit...being from well south of
the that border it is not my favourite beer. I know we have had some nice threads on
beer before and while it well know we have some of the great beers down here ( Coopers
!! ) my hat goes off to the English. Nothing like an 'Old Hookey' or perhaps a nice
dark Theakston's off the moors !

Seriously, I agree and I have mailed Joe. My timezone said it was well past midnight
when that was posted. Joe, you have given great advice to this List and shown great
patience for many postings ( ie spam ) but I am with Dr John on this. I think you
sounded as though you might be needing of a good ale. What do they brew in BESPA ( have
i got it right !!! ) ? Take it easy mate.

Cheers
Shane.
