To paraphrase what someone said yesterday, it feels like suburban Leeds has been transported to Vietnam. To top it off my hay fever went mental today and I've been given antibiotics to sort out a throat infection I've been sporting for far too long, so no beer this weekend (the pills don't say no beer but it's always better not to) and anyway my ill has completely disabled my taste buds.

I'm still thinking about getting my brewing kit together but the weather seems completely wrong for it at the moment.
