That Abbeydale Moonshine π
Thought I'd check out details of my walk today on my Wahoo app', as it wasn't syncing with my Strava or Komoot ok v.interesting it would appear that I did 575.42km π³ I did the walk Sept' 28th 1999 β° & I've burnt 38,034 calories π³. So come to me for time travelling superhuman feats of endurance
Been 5-6 years since I last came here. They're one of those breweries who brew very good beer across most of the styles, I think that I've enjoyed most of the beers I've had from them.
Yes, you're right Bill, it's a v.nice place
Back down the hill on the outskirts of Herrsching now and a new brewery to me, Brauhaus Herrsching est: 2020 . Only the one beer and despite being a touch on the sweet side it's actually a very decent Helles, I'm enjoying this.
Cheers Keef, I'll pass on your cheers to Loz later, unfortunately Loz is in MΓΌnchen working today, so I am flying solo. Hello and cheers to you and Mrs Keef π»
A nice walk up from Herrsching and Amersee to Andechs and it's such a lovely day βοΈ a beer outside. I'm enjoying the winterbier which I've never had and is available on draft until the 19th March, cheers all π»
Oh no, hope that it doesn't delay you too much. But yeah know exactly how you feel. As it happens re: our journey we arrived in Plattling only an hour and 10mins later than we should have done, so it wasn't so bad..
I knew it was going to be in excess of β¬3,000 but then some additional issues cropped up as they do π
I need to fill up the camper in the next few days, but first I need an even bigger hug after picking it up from the garage today with a β¬3,993.52 bill. When the repair bill itemisation list runs to four pages I guess you know it's going to be expensive. Okay so that's a huge hit to the savings π€£
That looks fab'. I've only been there the once with a group of friends, and that must've been about 15 years ago.
Looks fantastic π
First flower spotted in the garden this year is a lovely little wood anemone, there's a few more about to bloom as well.
Is that the new place near Olympia park?
Is that the place that's open less frequently than a visit from Haileys Comet?
We've been out working on the garden for a few hours today, shattered now so beer π» on the balcony it is. Cheers all π»
I have not seen a horse racing board game since Totopoly. Was this any good Craig?
Agreed. It's 13c at the moment π. I'm only wearing a T-shirt but the back of the house is in direct sunlight π so it's really warm on the balcony
Ok no worries, maybe an Aperol Spritz then?
Nice selection there
Drinks on the balcony anyone?
Locals say there's always snow on the ground Nov - March but it used to last right through until April and be much deeper. That said it's been great this year and we've had a good covering right up until a week or so ago.
A lovely morning here and yayyyyy we can see most of the garden now.
Next up is this lovely 7% abv west coast IPA, thatβs by Zichovec from the Czech Republic #BskyBeer π¨πΏπΊ
I see what you did there π
Back home after our little train issue earlier. Happy Friday, cheers all π»
I've got a Dog A or is it a B I forget π€£ anyway might crack it open this weekend. Really sad for all those small investors (equity punks) out there who've lost everything.
Seemed really weird & super quick turnaround to get the KΓΆln train out & the Wien ICE in & off again all within 7-9 mins, hence we assumed it was ours. Should have realised when we saw someone in what we mistakenly thought were our seats π€£, but then looked up to see KΓΆln destination & train moving.
First train disaster of trip. A late platform change at Frankfurt for Wien train (we catch this to Plattling). Loz saw ICE in we got on it, π€ weird it left 7mins early oh no we're on a KΓΆln train π±. Change at Frankfurt π« now on train to MΓΌnchen Hbf π‘ so a further train & rail replacement (bus) now.
I was singing that last week π
