Perhaps related to there being 80,000 knobhead fans due to arrive back in the centre after 10?

Anybody up for a vintage bottle share? Got these lovely specials from 2018 and a couple of proper 2017 gems from long closed breweries.....

Shall we translate the e-mail I've just got from Live Nation?

"These shows are about to sell out..." = ....

Just done something not done in the ten years we've been in this house - a good long soak in the bath. Certainly eased the post beer fest aching muscles better than going straight back to work on Monday morning. #RetiredLife

And then Charlie XCX comes on and shows how a shambolic NY is way ahead of some 'star' mining to playback....

So I've just come back from a day with lots of beer consumed. But drunk me can't help but think that some of the "will NY's set be televised" must have been "will more people find out he's a bit shit these days"..

As above, not on radar of the Tories that will tell the DG what to broadcast. Or they weren't. They will be now.

After all the shit, hope Neil Young uses platform to put out everything the networks wouldn't want saying....

Yeah, well Vylan hasn't attracted attention of any Tory arseholes (yet). But the Kneecap wouldn't have if they hadn't been flagged to the US evangelicals.

I'll look again but seen em twice and they've been shite both times...

Did you know that the first Beer & Cider Festival in Chorlton was held 20 years ago - way back in 2005.

We're really looking forward to welcoming back some of the breweries and even some of the beers that we poured back when 2Pac was top of the charts and Batman Begins was the movie to see.

Name faintly rings a bell but sure never met him. Google brings up the article. Sounds like a right old relic. Been drinking micropiss all day, most of it in keg. Been a good day. 😄

I'd hope you won't be asked to judge as you are publically stating you couldn't be impartial.

I've got no idea how the select the final judges but CAMRA loves a lengthy contract so wouldn't be at all surprised if the judges had to sign declarations.

There's always been a knowledge of the finalists for anybody who could be bothered to trawl and find the results of the regional rounds. And the winter category finalists have always been known six months before.

So what if individual judges might recognise individual beers? There's 24 judges scoring against different characteristics and (I'd assume) over three panels ("semi final" and final). The winner is the one that comes out top across all the judges (not just tone that can't manage to be impartial).

Come sling some EKF with me, Adam and Vic. Or pump some cask with other equally lovely people.....
