Mediocre, at best….. Currently 61.44% of the man I used to be. Vanishing before your very eyes…
That time of the year - I have it on very good authority that Friday lunch & Saturday lunch will be gone in a flash. Thursday night, if you know - you know - is the very chilled connoisseur’s session… @salfordbeerfest.bsky.social
When in Salford… trying Joule, kicking off with their house pale by Tartarus… looking forward to hooking up with the @salfordbeerfest.bsky.social mob later - always a special day…
Liverpool day 2…. Needed a football fix as Carlisle Utd away, settling for some minor league stuff…. Beer at Arvex Brewery Tap…
Salopian x Thornbridge “Kashpur” on point at Dead Crafty Liverpool… a very fine beer indeed…
Enjoying Liverpool very much…. Dead Craft is just, well, nice…. Nice beer list, nice room, nice vibe…
Big season expected CUFC…. First up those giants of English football….errr….Worthing. To be fair looks like several hundred have made the trip - so fair play….
Another great course in South West Scotland - Wigtownshire County tomorrow-will definitely return…
Stunning practice round today at Portpatrick Dunsky Golf Club - western edge of Galloway - lets hope the weather stays same for Wigtownshire County tomorrow..
Pint of gin clear Newbarns Strata on cask in Beermoth - very very strong contender for best pint of the year so far….
Bit of retail therapy & then The Smithfield - every time I come back this place feels a little better than the last time. Probably my favourite pub in Manchester now…
Little Sunday trip out, been a while since I trawled some of my old Manchester haunts. First up - pint of 3% Nardis at Cloudwater…
Well - something I hadn’t anticipated - drinking pints of Lakes Brew Co beer in the newly resurrected Beer Hall in Staveley - named Nook - and it’s really rather lovely. Worth a detour next time @beersmanchester.bsky.social is up this way!
Some places are worth the walk, some aren’t. This is, barefoot over broken glass if necessary.
Things I’ve rarely said since moving to Cumbria include - “it’s too bloody hot, think I’ll go to Glasgow to cool down” - well today’s the day. Blue skies, very pleasant 24 degrees & first visit to West Brewing. All makes sense 2 sips in….
All winter planning Summer trips & finally the day arrives. Why hello Dunbar, you sexy beast 🏴🏴🌞🌞
The absolute joy of eating alone in a busy restaurant & watching the worlds little dramas unfold…
Pint of Five Points Pale - been a while & a long way from Hackney. Blue sky & riverside location provided by Leeds…
Things I never, ever expected to say in 2026 - “oooh - I’ll have a Double Diamond then”… it’s much better than I remember and was a lot easier to pour…
Northern Monk Refectory - Pint of Eternal on cask, side order of Liam Ashurst - Lake District Mountain IPA “apparently” - have some pals who might have an opinion on that….
On the way to Leeds, via Carlisle and then the magnificent Ribblehead viaduct…
