Stout is good in pies (Steak and Guinness Pie).
Whatever you do, dont' drink it.

Last week I paid my phone bill, so O2 cut off my phone.
Yes, I thought that was odd behaviour as well. So I called them.
"No sir! You paid NEXT month's bill, not last month's! So we cut off your phone!"
After some discussion, they agreed that perhaps they could be more flexible about allocating payments. The phone was reconnected.
This month's bill isn't due for another 5 days, and I've had four texts since saying "we're going to cut off your phone."
Today, after several enjoyably fruity phone calls, they sent me a "we're sorry" package.
Unlabelled, no message. Six bottles of stout in a presentation package, tied with an O2 ribbon.
And it's not like they don't know I'm Australian, particularly after some of the language used in the call.
What does one do with stout? What is stout for?

True story, we have set a plan of attack for the weekend. With the drive being 5 1/2 hours we planned to set of early tomorrow. One of my mates has done nothing but complain about having to get out of bed early on his day off. Has truly done my head in!!

Go without him. Simple. I have zero tolerance for mates like that.

Sheridan will argue that point. He has to me at great length. Until I wanted to die.

I was on about black being a radiator for heat, which is why Bedouins wear black rather than white in the deep desert. Basically I was trying to talk about physics and you managed to make it about racism.
Man vs Woman. Right there.

"Black tulle don't crack"? Yeah, Chico says that a lot as well.
In other news, I am greatly amused that O2 just called, said sorry, and said my next phone bill would be waived as a not-stout-based apology.
Then they cut my phone off again, just to be sure. SIGH.
