Nice one Andre and Red Rum.

Do you have rum in the Neaderlands?

The best way to clean the beer bottles is by drinking the beer, right?!

It was great if you were in that pic as well:wink:

Have you not recognized her? She disguised herself as Einstein, but for a trained eye that's not a problem.

I have found several members on board such as Borek, Moon Bear, superwolf, TinyTim, Evo, David etc are actually good to users like me. I truly appreciate that!

A very peasant time was had in erudite and entertaining company. And yes, drinking beer not only cleans the bottles but is very good for health. Evo was of course with us in spirit and mind. Some day we'll have a forum meeting in Einsteins ( the bar where Andre and I met and discoursed at length about mammoths and beer). I prefer my rum from the Caribbean though.

Rum is normally best when served in the caribbean as well.
 
  • #3,606
Most anything is best served in the Caribbean!

Thanks Red Rum... its nice to read a slice of the Netherlands experience!

Interesting you should mention this. I'm just back from a country where the empty bottles are already arriving back for refilling before QC Microbiology results are available for the previously filled ones. And if we could double capacity we still couldn't fill the demand. Quality becomes quite a challenge in these situations.

Red Rum... could the company use spectral analysis the same way astronomy uses it to identify atmospheric contents on unreachable planets?

You'd have to set up a detection of bacterial spectral analysis then scan many bottles at once and go by the percentage of incidence of bacterial matter... probably after rinsing and whatever you guys do to the poor little left over bottles.

Heineken rocks!

In short, yes. But it's somewhat cost prohibitive and we must not lose sight of the fact that our core business is selling beer.

I don't see a downturn coming soon to that market, hic...:cool:

Competition must be fierce.

Cycling in Brassemmermeer on April 13. I'm freezing since I lost my Ireland rugby jersey.

I just realized that I posted the Evo Child's picture in the forum, but not here. So here are the Evo child, my dog the Fruit Bat and my cat Dr Foofer.

Astounding that Mr. Foofer is simultaneously entirely relaxed and precariously balanced.

All lovely photos, Evo. Evo child is truly lovely. The Fruit Bat. Hee!

And yet again someone turns out to be less than half of the age that I had envisioned. This is getting far too common.

That's what I've been thinking too. Dang. My pics will go up soon. I FINALLY bought a nice digi-cam -- and it's battery's charging. I might look young, but I'm not... just good genes -- my students always guess my age about 10 yrs off (and I really think they aren't intending it as brown-nosing).

Well, since we didn't hear that you were married recently, I suppose you're in the red dress...the one who looks nearly identical to the bride! (Is that your sister or cousin?)

Very beautiful pix, mcknia!
 
  • #3,628
Thanks, and no, we are not even related, she is my best friend though. We have been told that we look like sisters quite a lot.
 
  • #3,629
