Hello, Good Evening, Welcome...to nothing much. Music. Comedy. Beer. #cafc. Travelling On Buses. Reading the graffiti about slashed seat affairs.
Usually has a few localish Sussex, Surrey or Kent ales on as well. Very good to see it’s being supported by local council too, and won pub of the year poll organised by local MP who mentioned it in Parliament. Fantastic job being done there.

A pint of Oakham Ales’ Root & Branch, a black IPA.
I love Black IPAs, not that there are many around. And this is great, full of flavour and perfect for Autumn.

Scan of NME with Automatic For The People by REM album cover with the caption: NOW BEING SERVED
Was looking through scans of old Melody Makers and NMEs, the date of Oct 5 was initially corroborated, but it looks as if they brought the release date forward as this was in the NME week ending Oct 3 (so out in newsagents on Sep 30).

That’s not the only ITN theme to be used elsewhere, either:

Newspaper tv listing for BBC-2 on Monday 8th June 1981.
It absolutely is - newspaper tv listing from 8/6/81 and a tantalising end credit roll from it.

Actually, Kenny was a member of charity ensemble The Crowd who had a number one with You’ll Never Walk Alone in 1985.

Not near the standard of their first few albums, but still fantastic.

Was just saying to Lee t’other day that Lot 105 really should have been tacked on a b side of a CD Single (2) rather than the actual end track of Parklife.
