Yeah, cut that out Wordwind - you can't just whip up any word in an extemporaneous or informal manner!

Anyway where was I... oh yes, I visited a 'cidery' down-under, and I have the sneeking feeling this is neologic, errhm, term. Does anyone have a dictionary which recognizes cidery? Is there such a thing as a whiskery too? :-)

If the people who own the "cidery" had a PR person, they would call it a "ciderium". That's got more class.

I checked Internet, and found an ad for the Green Mountain Cidery.

As a bit of trivia, it said on news yesterday that the authorities knew about problem at the crummy crematory, and did nothing, because law had a loophole. They just "hoped the problem would go away."
Sounds to me like they are accessories after the fact.
