These badboys tonight in a tent whilst it's absolutely tipping down in switzerland. Wife and kids in one side (already asleep) and I'm plucking up the courage to join the dogs in the other side. I was democratically told that was the order
Beer, revisited

We went to the Northern Monk Brewery recently. Its a fantastic place and less than half an hour walk from the train station.
Was at my local again this afternoon. Amazing to have a brewery 2.0 miles from my home down a gravel road, in a relatively remote area. Someone road a horse here (in the distance in the parking lot), haha.Strangely enough our group have been there also. Uber dropped us off at the door.

Can't get it on draught anymore. It was crap anyway since it was sold to a crap multinational brewer of crap - Anheuser-Busch
It was a beautiful pint of well kept before they got their hands on it.
Didn’t seem travel well, always seemed to be better in Manchester.

It was wasn't it, creamy, tasty and very drinkable.
The Brewery pub, just over the road from the MEN was always a must visit prior to a gig.
They should’ve been done for what they did to that brewery.

There was a back street boozer in Tranmere that was owned by Boddies. The interior look like it hadn't been changed since Jack the Ripper's time, but they served a lovely pint. They also occasionally had their mild, which I've never seen anywhere else. The pub of course is closed now.
Nothing special tonight, crate of iced Sol with lime for a movie night on the sofa.
Funnily enough I was trying to explain to a colleague a few ago what an outstanding pint boddies used to be.
Immortalised by the Macc Lads of course.
It was totally unique, there was nothing like it and hasn’t been since and they chose to destroy it.

Was in here a couple of weeks ago. Stayed at Sprowston Manor for missus birthday. Women went in town so I got the taxi driver to drop me and mate off here. (Sign now says Brewery Tap, but taxi driver called it the Fat Cat). Nice pint of Tom Cat. Taxi driver then recommended Duke of Wellington a few hundred metres away. Wolf brewey. Had a good pint of Edith Cavell in there. Another great pub. Then headed into town via Kings Head, Ribs of Beef and Wig and Pen, before meeting the women in Be at One. Loud music and cocktails in there so me and mate turned straight round and went to The Murderes. Must’ve had about fourteen pints. Was a bit dazed sat in steam room next morning.Totally agree.
This is the pub I mostly went to in when I was in Norwich, the best by far.
As you can see, they have a great selection of ales.
On the outskirts of Norwich, but well worth the effort

Got given 18 cans of Carlsberg from a neighbour today for helping him clear out his garage. I gritted my teeth and thanked him..
Just put the kettle on.
