Brewing retirement.

Post by Gandalph » Sat Jun 15, 2024 2:40 pm

My name is Paul, and I have rejoined the forum to sell all of my home brewery and associated equipment. I've got old and no longer have the energy or inclination to brew. I have been a member previously under a different user name but try as I might, I cannot remember my old login. When I have worked out (if I work out) how to put things up for sale, I will hopefully start posting items.
Regard
Paul.

Are you the Gandalf from the BM forum ?

The Grey Havens await.

How old is old, Gandalf? I remember a fellow on another forum who was "hanging up my mash paddle" because he had an appointment with "two fat ladies". One that will always stick in my mind.
I'm cheap. Just give me beer.

I'm not old enough to be in the group that tells strangers their age as if they really want to know but, I was convinced that you and I were born in the same year 1954 but that as your birthday is in March you were older than me. Oh well - got that wrong then :oops:

Nope, March 55. So I guess that makes you the old codger. :wink:
