The one tip that was in english 'Buy an A++ rated fridge' doesnt convince and doesnt say anything that isnt obvious.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Milieunet saying something like: Hereby i would like to ask your help tot spread around our Energy Saving Tips. I would like you in advance for your cooperation and help. Our mission is easy: let's start to save energy now! That's the best way to save our climate. **** off with your spam. -- Dave |

Of course, its not fresh if there isn't more froth than beer .... for some reason -- geoff |

It should not be hard to do if one had acces to the various real life energy consumptions of various fridge freezer ratings, but I dont know what to google.. NT |

Of course, its not fresh if there isn't more froth than beer ... for some reason It isn't fresh anyway..... Generally my opening line is that I'd like a full glass or at least to the measure line. I think that they just turn up the CO2 and it gives them extra glasses. In other countries it seems to be electric pumps and glasses with a line. Nowadays even the septics can produce a half reasonable ale at the right temperature and full pretty much to the top. |

There, you've gone and spoilt it now Generally my opening line is that I'd like a full glass or at least to the measure line. I think that they just turn up the CO2 and it gives them extra glasses. I did manage to "train" a dutch barman to pour a full glass in less than 4 days - I rock, me In other countries it seems to be electric pumps and glasses with a line. I did once find a pub just outside Arnhem which brewed its own beer and served from a barrel on the bar. Play your guitar and you get free drinks all night Nowadays even the septics can produce a half reasonable ale at the right temperature and full pretty much to the top. -- geoff |

If you let them get away with it. Some get quite upset if you pick them up on it. |
