ANOTHER cold, Caitie has a shocking experience and Sean gets caught by the candles. Oh – and I think that I’ve edited out all the sniffles – if I’ve missed one, sorry!

I know, it’s my fault. But my first reaction when I heard you mention the London Beer Flood was to remember this story about Shamus McCarney:
Brenda McCarneyis home making dinner as usual, when Tim Finnegan arrives at her door.
“Brenda, may I come in?” he asks. “I’ve somethin’ to tell ya.”
“Of course you can come in. You’re always welcome, Tim. But where’s my husband?”
“That’s what I’m here to be tellin’ ya, Brenda. There was an accident down at the Guinness brewery.”
“Oh, God no!” cries Brenda. “Please don’t tell me…”
“I must, Brenda. Your husband Shamus is dead and gone. I’m sorry.”
Finally, she looked up at Tim. “How did it happen, Tim?”
“It was terrible, Brenda. He fell into a vat of Guinness and drowned.”
“Oh my dear Jesus! But you must tell me true, Tim. Did he at least go quickly?”
“Well, no. Fact is, he got out three times to take a pee.”
Yes… I know, I’m going to warmer climates… ;-p
Thanks Tom! After an expectedly rubbish first day back at work, reading this again really cheered me up!
Just checking in to see if there’s a JACD 55 today. Loved that “beer” story as well! Alas, as you said once before, “in a house with no beer, one thing remains, Pinot Noir!”
Hi Dan, not tonight, however I’m hoping to record an episode tomorrow night. But will there be beer?!
