I dutifully did so, as I too share a distinct appreciation of such beverages.  However on our journey back to my humble abode, I expressed some concerns over the appropriateness of consuming fine alcohol in solitary company.  St. Hames reassured me, insisting that there are many instances when consuming beer without the presence of others is quite acceptable, indeed sometimes even expected!  One such situation proffered by St. Hames was that of spending some time during the day improving upon ones garden, and then allowing oneself a brief respite from the toilsome work.  In this instance it seems that consuming a glass of fine ale is in fact the norm.<\/p>\n<p>Much to my pleasure, I realised upon returning home that I did indeed have a garden, and lo! it required some attention.  So of course, desiring to consume some of the fine ale which had been purchased, I set about working in said garden.  After some time I stood back and admired my handiwork, having cleared out all of the front garden, and much of the rear, I felt that I had certainly earnt myself a brief respite, and had most definately worked up enough thirst to consume a pint of fine ale.<\/p>\n<p>Thusly I removed the ale I had purchased from my cupboards and arranged them in an orderly row on my kitchen surface, in an attempt to choose the ale which I most wanted to consume at this time.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.spiderscripts.co.uk\/uploads\/beers.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"288\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\"><\/p>\n<p>Having considered my work, I decided that I was feeling rather akin to a champion of the garden, so there was really little competition.
