Mixing a 3.5% beer + 2% shandy = 2.75% shandy, very tasty indeed.
I'm not that far off 60 now so drinking shandy is a kind of good idea, getting the best of both worlds (and no hangover the day after).

Last Friday night at Łazienki Park with Alfa Mist:
Full credit to the band and crowd, despite the incessant rain, this was a great gig.
Foreword; Teki; Organic Rust etc., beautiful tunes just flew by, it was so good, I hardly noticed the rain, even found myself jiving around.
Coming back from Alanis Morisette at the Torwar in Warsaw last week, bubbles above the Politechnika Metro station.
Had the pleasant experience of some small birds helping me to eat my rice at a Vietnamese place in Warsaw.
The running of a short version of a song into another tune worked a treat (e.g. Sorry 2 Myself into Head Over Feet).
And three acoustic tunes (Rest; Mary Jane; Perfect) being done at the mixing desk was a really nice touch.
Favourite tune of the night, that would have to be You Oughta Know (this tune marks the mid-90s for me, living in an attic bedsit in my hometown, Bury, Lancashire, all another lifetime away now).
Finally, things being rounded off perfectly with Thank You, hearing this song live had always been on my bucket list (last year, I got to see Chris Isaak do Wicked Game live, certain songs are just on my bucket list)
As expected, it was very fresh tasting, not bad at all.
Cool Cool Cool (with Julie Slick) opening with a five-song set (would've liked to have heard much more, as the band was fantastic.
Then after the opening set, Cool Cool Cool (and Julie Slick) joined Jerry Harrison and Adrian Belew on stage for a nice evening of Talking Heads classics (Psycho Killer; Take Me To The River; Life During Wartime etc.)
Plus the King Crimson (Mark II) classic, Thela Hun Ginjeet, an incredible song.
Yeah, this was a nice Sunday evening out at the Progresja in Warsaw on 25th May.
Thankfully, a bus shelter was just across the road:
Should help to provide good nutrition for the garden.
It was great seeing the apple blossom with the yellow-flowered fields in the background.
The fields of yellow flowers are for local margarine production.
Hopefully, there'll be a decent yield of apples in August/early September.
A few nice shots from the Bear McCreary concert at Warsaw Progresja last Monday:
This gig was a fantastic audio-visual experience.
Bear McCreary and his great band provided a perfect balance of material from McCreary's film/video game tunes and recent Rock album, The Singularity.
From The Singularity, the standout tunes, for me, were Tatarigami; The End of Tomorrow; and, of course, Tears for the Dead Life'.
From the film tunes, Dance of the Druids was amazing.
In fact, everything was amazing on a great night.
Class musicians on stage with two completely different kinds of singers (Brendan McCreary and Morgan Sorne), this worked really well.
And, of course, a great finale with Godzilla (Blue Oyster Cult = one of my favourite bands, have been blessed to see them quite a few times).
Yet another buckwheat meal.
This time, with cottage cheese accompanying chick peas, cherry tomatoes, green olives, camembert cheese, and of course, the tried and trusted, buckwheat.
Very rarely buy tour t-shirts but made an exception for April Wine (after waiting for many years to see them).
Was happy to see that the back of the t-shirt was full of tour dates:
The setting where I saw April Wine (with Uriah Heep and Tyketto), Manchester Bridgewater Hall, was brilliant:
The sound quality for all three bands was fantastic.
