Just a quick question, Does anyone have a recipe for rose cider? TIA, Derek.

Lol, that's not going to help, don't know how hard it is to grow as long as you are not in a hurry...

Lol Not a celery grower .

Just had a quick Google, It's to do with blocking light as to stop photosynthesis, I doubt it would affect stinginess as that comes with older celery

This thread made me read an interesting article that said a cars speedo tends to overestimate speed due to a margin for wheel size, tyre wear etc, whereas a sat nav tends to underestimate die to turns, rises in road etc, I guess it's a case of using sat nav and looking but yes there are not...

Get young celery if you can, jan/Feb is the season but it will be forced all year, stalks in middle are best, stuff in supermarkets tends to be poor so unless you have a farm shop you can get to.....

So you would be happy to use that as an excuse when caught speeding?

As I've said it's the law, and yes sometimes it's not signed enough but even in that case a sat nav wouldn't help you if it was as they dont change at the sign post so likely you would have been pinged anyway, same applies to temporary speed limits, a sat nav wont help.

And if you didn't have a sat nav? YOU are the driver not the sat nav. It's not having a go at you but it's how the law would see it, too many people rely on sat nav and dont pay any attention to what is happening around them.

I half agree but you should still know the limit, there are always signs as you go into a different limit, as police would say if you were caught, my point was not to blame sat nav, it's an aid not something you obey to the letter, its amazing the amount of people have issues by listening to sat...

You cant blame the sat nav, YOU should know the speed limits on the roads.

Or even better

Just a thought, can I add aj to the lees left in demi John after siphoning off cider to start a new one?

It may well clear once fermentation has finished, Let it run its course then siphon into clean demi, see how it goes from there.

Do you mean to get rid of petals etc?
