Up with the lark

It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

Um, yeah, I know railway tracks are made of steel, mate! :lol:

Reason I asked was it railways specifically is because you might have worked on the tube for all I knew... :wink:

In a previous life I worked construction for 17 years and saw ultrasonic testers used on concrete, wood, composites, steel and aluminium.

It's important work. 8)

Decent bitter is one of the few things I miss about Blighty. Last Summer, while visiting family, I stumbled upon the West of England real Ale Festival. Heaven!!

I'm back in England for September and looking forward to a pint or two of Shepherd Neame's best ales.

If I get bored at any point I might even try and catch one of our games, although I've heard Dulwich Hamlet is the place to be for proper football.

blagh shepheard neame is nasty stuff, over manufactured these days, they got too big!!!


now you want somthing good then most stuff produced by st austell ales, adnams, skinners, mighty oak, crouch vale, otter brewery, some of badger brewerys beers and my own personal faverote, Woodfordes are excellent

Do these beers exist or did you just make them up? Because each summer when I come back to the UK the supermarkets stock a massive range of ales which appear to have been chosen by the stupidity of their names; Wizard's Toenail, Carpenter's Big Nail etc.

I'm looking forward to some decent cider (none of that crap you put ice in). Old Rosie or Weston's Organic.

Think it needs a few more people to inform the forum what time they get up...

I get up when I want, except on Tuesdays, when I get rudely awoken by the dustmen about 7.45.
