Damn Sports Day has even taken over Radio 4, but I can't pass up the opportunity for a cheap gag. Here's my base-malt-and-goldings effort.
Reverse osmosis water 40L, 20L Yatton's finest council pop.
7kg low colour MO.
Decoction mash 38C, 58C, 68C (five fucking hours later...)
Pre-boil gravity 1.042, 45ish litres. 90min boil.
79g goldings (5.2% alpha - 25IBU) at 75mins, 63g at 30min (15IBU), 97g at 15min (15IBU). Rehydrated S-04.
Thanks to Roger for his talk - calculations by pencil.

Obviously didn't correct for temperature. 40L at 1.048 into the fermentor. Beer calculator reckons on 88% efficiency, Tony Ye-fucking-boah!

Re: Going for Goldings
Bottled and kegged this today, there is a marked malty sweetness (which I hope won't ferment away!), and a great body. It surprised me that it dropped to 1.010, it felt 'bigger'.
Long live SHA(T)!

Re: Going for Goldings
I will be kegging my effort this weekend. It went into the fermentor at 1050, so similar to yours. Might bung some dry hops into the keg.
look forward to some comparative tasting in september.

I like to keep a bottle of stimulant handy in case I see a snake, which I also keep handy.
