The Belgians have over 500 different bottled beers - and it's a small country.<br />As for Sir Tom, I think he will live forever because his body has become preserved/pickled in alcohol.bazzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794010156639774028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-30579290644972953502012-08-26T23:30:43.167+01:002012-08-26T23:30:43.167+01:00Great post on beer, Bazza.

I like your picture of Homer guzzling it down.<br /><br />Your post is partly humorous, but really, I know you're right about how it led to some of the inventions you mentioned in one way or another. For me, personally, it slows down my thoughts to a point where I can concentrate and focus on one thing. I might not be able to walk straight and fall over a table, starting a fight and having my head caved in by a bar stool, but hey, no pain... no gain. :)<br /><br />Like Sir Tom has said, "I'll drink to that!" That dude is wise, eh?Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13605551857342134163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-70466644340861360762012-08-20T19:56:17.044+01:002012-08-20T19:56:17.044+01:00Dixie: I'm not a big drinker but I am very fus...Dixie: I'm not a big drinker but I am very fussy when I do drink. I would hate not to be able to do it any more so I am careful not to overdo it.

Obviously the water here is still too dirty to drink!<br />Very Best Wishes, bazza,<br />David.
