Well I had all the common symptoms - dreadful sore throat etc. - and total fatigue, muscle soreness all over, the simplest tasks were a struggle. E.g. even picking up small objects like a book was an effort.

Basically like the actual flu (rather than merely a cold), it hit me like a truck, despite being fairly fit and healthy.

Had a bit of shortness of breath at the peak but that went away by lying down.

Obviously nothing compared to the folks that go to hospital, but definitely more severe than I would have expected.

They do a draught that’s pretty good.
Drinking it now.

It’s not CUB draught standard though ;)

Hey Booney, did you try the English IPA when you were in Goolwa?

If so what did you think?

I rate the air con in her car too! Puts my old car to shame!
I also rate my countery coming out now too! :D

I'm not much of an Ale drinker, their lager is pretty good too. Went to Lot 100 the Monday after Xmas, brilliant food, wine, beer & gin if you're into that

Went to Lot 100 prior to Xmas.
Pretty impressive setup they have there.
Their whiskey is very good too.
They wouldn’t serve it neat on ice so they served it with ginger beer.
Never had it with ginger beer but it was bloody good.

Why in the name of all that is holy would they not serve it straight?

Mixing is what you do to make inferior products palatable. If it's worth drinking then it's worth taking as-is, with at most a few ice cubes or a dash of water.

Yep that’s exactly what I said to them.
I reckon it would have been half decent straight as well.
I guess I’ll never know
