Well Today is brewday 55L of elderberry stout is on. This is an all grain brew day making beer from the grains. The mash went on last night I should have 55L of wort ready to come out in an hour ready to boil with the hops and elderberry juice.

I will hopefully post some pictures later.

I'm making a mess.

I've designed a data structure to fulfil some related but slightly competing requirements, and it's Not Quite Right. Bit stuck. Pacing, tea, and soreen may be required.

I'm just off to Shrewsbury to buy the bits & pieces to complete the bathroom (loo roll holder, towel rail &c) then I can get on with painting in there.

So exciting!

Sometimes, some procrastination on DS is all that is needed to Solve Problems Inspiration has occurred, and I have a neat solution in mind to my earlier technical conundrum.

*gets on with it*

I've started a blog.... does that count:

Only done a couple of entries so far:

https://sallysewssometing.blogspot.co.uk/

Hope to add to it.

Also found Pinterest and have stuck up links to my aspirational projects:

Too many ideas out there and not enough time. I did however manage to buy a few pre-wound bobbins for the sewing machine on ebay, so I'll spend less time winding the bobbin up! (And singing that child's song in my head as I do so!)
