I assure you bluc knows the difference between a barrel n a bag of chips.. :teasing-tease:

I stopped torturing myself and avoid that section at bunnys,
from a educational point of view, its worth checking just to see whats going through and looking up the barrel maker, sometimes they will have char type listed too.
Adds a few more minutes to the black hole in time that a trip there takes, another reason to not look lols

When I have 2 kegs full will start to look again, should only take 1400l of wash to get there, give or take :roll:

Thanks boys, I have never seen them other than the garden section cut in half. I will not look anywhere else when I am out there as I also do not want the torture of yet more temptation lol
