    Oberlix , as you can probably guess I like Guinness as well 🍺
    In fact one of the Pubs in our Village does an excellent pint of Guinness 
    Few Years ago had a short holiday in Dublin and visited the Guinness Brewery which was excellent

    Amazing covering of sticky snow all lit up by a fullish moon tonight. Almost makes it worth being up at 3am. I'm almost tempted to wrap up warm and go out for a moonlit stroll rather than go back to bed. Almost...

    My OH goes out for a walk every night round 10 pm he loves night walking, so many more interesting sounds about, he says.

    More like a swift walk to the local PH two swift pints and back home in time for lights out. Nothing like the sound of a couple of god beers in the evening. 🙄

    I love walking in the dark, I can't recommend it highly enough when the conditions are right. It was bright enough last night to walk anywhere without a torch but even on a really dark night it's rarely that dark with light pollution now. I gave up on the idea last night though as I didn't get to bid until 5:30.

    Singapore. :|  I'd like to think people will boycott Dyson products now but I doubt the majority even have the sense to care.
    I would suggest the majority don't actually buy Dyson in the first place.  They are ridiculously expensive and, to me at least,  a bit like designer sunglasses. I.E. they don't do the job any better but the people wasting their money on them think it makes them look good.

    My missus loves going for a walk at night.  She admitted that the best bit is being able to 'sticky beak' into people's homes without being seen!

    It’s very very dark here at nights, no houses and no street lights.

    Same here so night-time walkies can be dodgy unless the moon is full.

    I see Dyson is taking his profits and tax liability to a new HQ in Singapore after benefiting from untold millions in UK tax payer subsidies.

    Now to go and bath the woolly bear who has rolled in something unspeakable out in the garden.  Is this a terrier trait cos the Labrador doesn't do it?
