    As an ex landlord of a pub in Gloucestershire long ago; I cannot get my head around cloudy beers. I know that some are apparently supposed to be, but if I see cloudy draught it means dirty pipes; not enough settling time or a bad barrel. Can't help myself, no cloudy beers for me. Our pub as a matter of interest, was built in 1325 if memory serves, and it was the second pub on the site. (first one burnt down) Thanks for the vids, going to have to send you an invoice for down time as I work from home..:)

    Hi guys. Loving the video. Great to see the drone back in action. You two look very relaxed. Almost as relaxed as a wooden wheelbarrow full of strawberries 🍓... with chocolate on top . Bridgett says hi to you both and to let you know Wendy that your print has arrived and is on the wall pride of place. She loves it ❤️

      Hi Mark & Bridgett. It's great to be back together again. We got some amazing footage from the drone on our trip across Australia. Cheers guys.

      Hi Sarah. The wreck has been there about 4 years. She ended up there after a big storm. Her name is Magic. She was a beautiful boat.
      Yes we are meeting at the 'Swan in the Rushes' at 12 noon on Sat 4th November. Hope you can make it. Cheers

    It's OK Wendy, Weiss Beer is supposed to be cloudy (well, it can be clear if you want). I first tasted it in Germany and I really like it. You've got to drink it out of the correct glass, like the one you had. We spent a while with some German friends trying to buy one in Germany and we couldn't. They gave us a couple of glasses to bring home but when we walked into our local Tesco, they had loads on the shelf! You can also get a good selection of German Weiss Beers here too. Happy birthday.

    Love Airlie Beach...been lucky to walk around Canonvale Beach was amazed with that schooner shipwreck, what an awesome view when we first saw it...and we also had a great adventure out to Whitehaven Beach on the purple Cat...everyone was seasick except me and my hubby, when ever anyone threw up we kept moving to the other side of the cat it was absolutely rough sail that day but laughed all day long...LOL

    I first went to Airlie Beach in 1986 when I was riding my Honda XL250 round OZ, and last went there in 2003 I think.
    Guess what though....... Didn't recognize ANY of it! Hahaha!

    Happy birthday! I know this sounds made up but I was there about 1.3 weeks ago. We explored the reef on a boat called big fury. It's amazing that UA-camrs you follow can be so close to places you've just been. It's a small world!

    Magnus, that was a LARC, the more modern version of the DUKW of WW2. LARC is short for Lighter Amphibious Resupply Cargo developed in the 50's and some are still in use today by gov't departments and tour operators.

    and you two chose to spend a winter on the UK canals with that as your home, starting point? but you were still so positive about all that you saw in the cold wet uk. i think that's what i find so infectious, thanks for another great video.

    Magnus...NO, I don't know what five chocolates out of a chocolate box eaten all at once taste like! But it does sound interesting :) Glad you found a decent beer so far from proper beer country :) Happy birthday Wendy. I hadn't realised you are as old as 42...I'd thought late 30s :) Remember to Slip, Slap, Slop in that heat :)

    Hi Wendy & Magnus, great flying skills with the drone! 👍 what's the story of the 3 masted wreck in the bay ? Would make a great project boat !

    • @LifeinaNutshell
      @LifeinaNutshell  7 років тому +1

      The vessel 'Magic' ran aground there a few years ago after a big storm. It would have made a great project 3 years ago but she is to far gone now.

    • @gebi4pejo1
      @gebi4pejo1 7 років тому

      We saw her about 3 years ago too, and she didnt look too bad...was surprised to actually see her in your video..but I guess a couple of cyclones later, no one would look too good...

    @sylviapage8572 7 років тому

    We've just bought 2 bottles of that Blue Moon wheat beer at Sainsbury's so that's a coincidence. The Belgian wheat beers do tend to look a bit like a urine specimen (with a kidney issue!) but my husband likes to try them. We'll give it a go tomorrow and hopefully it'll be more than a 3! Thanks for the video. It looks nice but not as nice as the GU but obviously I'm biased!

    • @LifeinaNutshell
      @LifeinaNutshell  7 років тому

      Hi Sylvia. I would love to hear what you husband thinks of the Blue Moon. Cheers

    • @sylviapage8572
      @sylviapage8572 7 років тому

      We had 2 bottles of beer so after your vlog we decided to have 1 each to try it! I didn't really detect any citrus but thought it was nice and refreshing and I'd give it a 7. My husband was researching his family tree while he had his beer and was so engrossed in an old census he forgot to drink it. It was only when we were in bed and I asked him what he thought that he realised he hadn't drank it! Any way he jumped up and ran to try it he said it was definitely a 9 out of 10 but he loves German and Belgium wheat beers.

  • @thecanucklehead7351
    @thecanucklehead7351 7 років тому

    Your first clue should have been 'wheat' - you do not make beer out of wheat it is just plain wrong. Something the Belgians (who claim to have invented beer - a couple of thousand years after the Ancient Egyptians albeit) came up with as I recall. Good to see you guys relaxing at home. Cheers
