Updates

First the quiz answers -

•De Rosa Singlespeed - Avocado Stack - Pete
•Salsa Casseroll (with front rack & bag) - Haloumi Stack - Gordy

•On-one Pompetamine (Singlespeed, flat pedals) - Savoury Mince - Graham
•Shogun Katana (fixed gear) - Huevas Flamencos - Me

 
No-one got them all right first time, but Kitty gets a bonus point for displaying her workings in the comments section :). I was a little hurt by her comments on the uselessness of fixed gear bikes and haloumi, given that I've made both myself, but she may not be too far from the truth.
 
Incidentally Kitty has been riding up from Singapore to Thailand with her partner Jon and they write two of the best blogs I've read in a while. Worth a look

The general view is that I cooked the rabbit wrong, and it would have been better served in a stew. Also they are serious pests in Qld that do more damage than almost any other introduced species, so the odds are they will remain illegal as pets for the forseable future :( 
 
The egg will be pleased to know that I'm planning to make some feta over the holidays

And a brew update -
 
The summer ale is ready and tastes crisp and clean. There's a slight woody taste (which may be due to coriander) but it sinks down well, dangerously well given the strength!
 
The ginger beer is in the bottle but will not be ready until Xmas. It has a bit of a funky odour but tastes dry and very gingery. Nervous about this one and how it will be received!
