Definitely signed up for this and considering getting the t-shirt!

Just in case anyone missed it - a Cumbrian miracle occurred in Berkshire today for around 9 minutes. A new Saint - Regan Linney - scoring injury time goals at 93 & 98 minutes and a winner 4 minutes into extra time is largely responsible

Lakes Brew Co x Burning Sky - an amazing West Coast IPA. When you hear “West Coast is best Coast” this is exactly what they mean…

Possibly the most perfect beer I have drunk in years, if ever. Look out for it in the wild. West coast is best coast - personified.

Gracie loves fire - settling down for Halloween

Fires been lit less than 5 minutes….

Gracie, a rather well proportioned cat, demonstrating a clear lack of understanding of the concept of personal space.

Current status…

Oh yeah….

Got to survive the train yet!

Birthday outing to Glasgow today - The Laurieston Bar, the new Dishoom and whisky will feature….

Lakes Brew Pale by the fire….

No words needed…

Trying determinedly to detox from social media. Have set aside reading time this week & have read a book cover to cover in a few hours over 3 days - probably the first time in 7 years & it feels so very very good…

Standard of refereeing reaches a new low today at Brunton Park. An absolutely woeful string of decisions is ruining the spectacle….

Just before Kick off - Brunton Park Carlisle for Carlisle United vs Forest Green

Decent turnout at Carlisle vs Forest Green. 5.30 kick off is rubbish though…

Very good..

Nope - good whisky

Entertaining a legend in Kendal & sending him home with gifts is always a highlight of the year!

Perfect pint of Lakes Pale at Brewery Arts Kendal.

Beautiful lacing, cellar cool & perfect condition - if only this was the norm when opting for a pint of cask beer…

Lovely pint of Lakes Brew Co Pale in The Brewery Arts Kendal - with side order of blue sky & warm sunshine

Sunshine pint at Brewery Arts Kendal…

Will try harder…

Approaching my 60th birthday - used AI to generate a playlist of every no.1 on my birthday from 1965 to date. First tune is Tears by Ken Dodd. Just don’t know how to react. This is going to take some serious processing…

1 Flu Jab, 10 pints, 1 whisky, 2 Curry portions, TOTP:1986 Nick Berry - “Every loser wins” - not kidding, some side effects - severe nausea - unable to blame flu jab at this point….

Oh bollocks. 8 Pints, 1 whisky, 0 curry, 1 flu Jab, Uber ordered and sense of potential incontinence (don’t tell the Uber)

Updated medical status - Flu Jabs:1, Pints:5, Whisky :1, Portions of Curry: 0, Side effects: 0

Current medical status - Flu Jabs:1, Pints:3, Portions of Curry: 0, Side effects: 0 - will be sending the final results to British Medical Institute - can sense their keen anticipation.

Pints of Lakes Brew Co - lovely….

Flu jab Friday followed by Friday club in the New Union featuring pints, pints, lots of pints and maybe a wee whisky as well. Then home to an explosive homemade curry. Will definitely play to the anti vaxers as I can almost feel the effects of the flu jab when I wake up in the morning…..

Square sausage breakfast roll at Minto Golf Club…

Last comp of the season - back over the border at Minto - coffee & breakfast roll with square sausage. Might stay in the clubhouse….
