don't get me started on customs @Seul, they seem to work in a completely different time zone than the rest of the human race. I believe @501/IH can add to the customs woes with his horrific tales of his dealings with berlin customs. what is it that they do that takes them so long to confirm that the piece of IH clothing, or something similar, that they are inspecting, isn't concealing a 100 ton consignment of peruvian flake !!!!!

[501IH]

Well yes, it's a topic that one better does abstain from getting me started on. Let me just put it like this here: they are my pet hate, it's a deep, profound, irreconcilable and oh so well-deserved hate !!!

Ratebeer's rating system is illogical, inconsistent and overly complicated.  Perhaps they were drunk when they created it, because that's the only way it wouldn't seem retarded.

But the ratings are right (I think) about Goose Island Halia; it's very nice.

^No it's not.

And BeerAdvocate is for douches  ::)

@Giles:

This could also go into First World Problems.  I come back from 2 weeks away, super-excited to see the Hoegh Osaka beached out in the Solent where I swim.  I pop down today and the bastards have uprighted her and she is being towed to Southampton…..DAMN.

@Giles warned the shipping company to make sure the IH consignment was stowed on the centreline…

John Prescott's on his way to be dropped in on the top of the ship.

Was supposed to get 24" of fresh ended up with 3". Work was supposed to be closed today, now they are opening at noon. This work shit is for the birds, well no skiing for me until tonight.

The € is so weak. Hopefully it gets better before I buy something from IHUK.

Ingrown hair. Fucking shifty ass Gillette I used as a travel razor. I pulled it out and felt it uncoiling from around my brain stem. Wouldn't stop bleeding either.

Oh shit, sorry to hear that man.

[Giles]

@tmg Is this the start of the fallout from the oil price crash…..?

[tmg]

Thanks all, and yes this is related to the depressed oil price. On the bright side I should get a decent exit package, and it may be time for a change of country too [emoji3]
