Watching The Terminator with the two eldest Lil Boons. Had to pause 5 minutes in to explain what a phone book was.

Mrs Boon is experimenting with wasp traps and the recipe specified Lidl bottled weißbier so I was dispatched for 2 bottles. There's an offer on 3 so I figured why should the wasps have all the fun? This'll keep me going while the chicken roasts.

Expecto Patronus, wasps!

On a whim I grabbed a massive sac of these at the supermarché and, to my utter delight, the fam did not approve. I bought a 6er to take home all for me. Another advantage of going by car & ferry.

I could assemble an entire croissant from the detritus on Lil Boon III's seat after France.

Oh Belfast Boon, your can too tall, your swag too different, your IBU too high. They'll kill you.

Another successful trip to France with Mrs Boon in that she hadn't at any point been kidnapped from our hotel room when I was in the shower.

Wile E. Coyote, despaired, takes a bucket of paint and a brush and paints a beautiful two-bedroom house on a mountainside. He paints a beautiful coyote wife in the window, and two adorable coyote kids running around in the yard. He tries to enter this new coyote life, but it is inaccessible to him

Shout out to Karen: on hearing she was 3rd in line for an item I'd posted on Gumtree - COLLECTION ONLY - sent me this:

- Oh but I really want it

and

- Can you deliver to Groomsport?

Great article re Alan Sprints who founded Hair of the Dog. Contrarians of the world unite!

I managed to get my hands on both ADAM and FRED in the Netherlands last year thanks to Pakhuis Twente, both will feature at the next #1001Beers share.

Why I enjoyed the soccer for once

This weekend, if I play my cards right, Mrs Boon will permit me a few hours of beer shopping in Dublin while we're in Kildare.

My usual route:

Blackrock Cellar - Redmond's of Ranelagh - Mace South Circular Rd

Maybe Martin's Fairview on the way back north.

Where else must I go?
