I've given up on Clipchimp, just couldn't get the jerky video to stop. Gone over to Kapwing, and got a better quality.

Lol! Good spot! Every day is a school day for me!

..need a new video editor... but for now, an update + style focus on British Golden Ales

I may have compressed it too much...I'll have a look...

A day late! But here's the launch video with me and the lad:

Wow! Can't believe the uptake on this one! If you want a place, you'd better get your skates on!

Thanks @pilgrimhudd there are so many amazing British and Irish styles! Just got back from the pub where me and the lad shared mild, golden ale, bitter and stout. All lush!1 Don't get many Scottish beers down here in Norfolk, but off to Skye in the summer + can't wait to try them.

@Nottsbeer dunno what to say to that one! @Caramel Ox sorry. I've had a couple of reports of this. I took 50 similar envelopes to the post office and the staff checked one and said it was fine too go as a standard letter. This inconsistency of handling is frustrating.
