I hope everyone has had a good weekend. Mine has been fairly busy. Yesterday I was helping out at parkrun. This time I was one of the people dealing with the finish tokens. You need more than one as it can get busy, but there were less runners. I expect people are on holiday. Later we were clearing a garden of nettles and brambles. I got a few stings there, but not too bad.
Dinner was an oriental combination of noodles and dumplings. I still have some of my father's day beers to choose from.
These beers from Staggeringly Good have great cans with a dinosaur theme. This one is a take on Tron (the movie, not the shitcoin).
This is a New England IPA, which seems to be popular lately. Cold from the fridge it was refreshing with plenty of flavour.
It went well with my dinner.
Today I had to do a little mercy mission. Last weekend a friend came off his bicycle on some gravel and broken his collarbone. I took him to hospital as I live near where it happened. I was looking after his bike, which has slight damage, and had to return that plus his car which he had parked near @daniellemurray who he had been riding with. His bike is a bit small for me, but I rode over there, with a short train journey, to put the bike in the car and drive it to him. It is a nice car, so was fun for me to (carefully) drive. He is on the mend and I may have talked him into joining Hive.
So I did not get a run over the weekend, but I had a little cycle and have been swimming in our pool as well as some gardening. Despite the lack of rain the weeds are growing well.
Dinner was veggie burgers and salads. I picked another of those beers. This one is not so strong, but also has a good flavour. I had not heard of a 'table beer'. It seems it used to be one you would all share over a meal, but modern versions may be different. 'Session beers' are another type I only learnt about recently. I do not tend to read up on these things as I just want to drink the beer.
Both beers are a bit cloudy, but I am fine with that. They are smooth with no residue.
It has been a warm weekend, but is due to get hotter over the next week. I think the pool will be getting more use.
Have fun!
