Beer and strange South Africans

Yes, I have just used the word beer!!

My parents went away this weekend and something strange happened this weekend that has not ever really happened before. Lonely is a harsh word, but I think that is where I was at. Thing is, is that I was not home when they left. I was sleeping over at the Robertson's - I'm sitting their house too.

I came home for lunch - there was something for lunch that was left in the fridge for me, but I did not feel like eating that...

COME ON!!?!! I'm here by myself - perfect excuse for pancakes!! Got everything together. About to start mixing and I have problem - I could not see the eggs behind the large cake mixer. So I went for a trip down to Menlyn to get eggs and go past Clicks for some meds. I got eggs, meds and a fuse for my horn... Almost came home with another horn of a different breed, but figured it were a waste - need to figure out wiring in car to parallel it to my little box that goes "toot" so that a mouse cant hear it...

Fuse fitted - 'Push button...BIG noise'
Pancake mixture mixed -- three pancakes later and I, being an idiot in the kitchen, add more water. Well the first three pancakes were good and moist. The others came out all dry. Now I have juice to drink and coke...oh wait, its tab. ;(
Open fridge, close fridge. Walk outside. Walk inside. Close gas valve. Go to PC. Install a linux server with no GUI. Unplug PC. Go to room. Walk out room. *some text missing*

Next thing I have a beer in hand...
Yep! sigh...

What do South Africans taste in beer?

Answer that.

I'm serious - DO IT!!!

All I taste is alcohol and a touch of some flavour.

I guess that's not the answer you thought of to my question.

Anyway, I dont drink things with oh ache minus. I didnt do anything with my weekend, so back to the beer issue..
Just for the sake of nothing, I tried another make of beer. Same taste adventure. The can reports a much less alcohol vol than the last can. OK, maybe I can taste a little more of the beer flavour, but the alcohol is too much. It's a light beer - 2%.. I'd rather drink tab with a spray-drop of doom. Same effect, just a better taste!

Sit at Mom's PC. Stare at screen. Sigh as phone rings. Sit down. Look at pile of cold food. Look at time [17:28]. Cut a large bit of cheese. Look at keys. Squint at black mouse on dark blue pad in dark room with bright screen...

OK, that's enough rant for one afternoon.
