sobriqueIt's friday. Which means it's a pub day.
Sadly, for me, this shall not be the beer engine - I'm going to be at the works christmas party.
I do, however, now have my Eco Sphere. Got delivered this morning. Postie presumably did usual trick of 'tap tap, no one in, time for coffee'. So had to bunk of work a bit to fetch it from the depot.
Because it's a living system, it can't really be shut in the dark (or cold).
So I've now got it on my desk. It came in a 'heated' box. And it's really rather compelling. I've even got a free shrimp.
Of course, now i'm rather tempted to get one of the large ones for my own use...
