APPARENTLY it costs the
NHS over Β£300,000 a year
to remove foreign objects from
people's rectums. Why aren't we
removing British objects instead?
Was Brexit all for nothing?

This is fun, but it has BBC Newsnight, LBC, Rory Stewart, Emily Maitliss and Ian Dunt under "British Progressive Voices". So now I'm wondering if those Brazillian furries are even furries.

Changed my CV email address to include my full name, when recruiters confirm it back to me they all say 'Luff' and I can't be arsed correcting them.

Starting to think its more hassle than it's worth and should have just kept it as B1gFatkox69 at freeserve

Barley Mow Inn, City Road - Historic Pub in the North East - Historic Pub in the North East We normally talk about the buildings that didn't deserve to be knocked down. This one is far too stubborn to fall despite two decades of arson and disuse. Though the artwork has made it less of an eye...

Ten 10 Bar and Bistro has opened on Newcastles Heaton Road, I think it's next door to The Last Resort.

The question is can I just pop in for a pint or is it food led ?

Looks like the former Riverside - or SEA if you're an oldie - on Newcastle's Quayside has a license application for a venue called 'The River God'

Has to be said I'm a bit of brown beer flavoured beer fan.
I'm always a bit cautious of beer with loads adjuncts chucked into it.

Mind you I think adding ice to vodka makes it a cocktail

A news article titled β€œCamerons places four sites on market as part of strategic review.” 

It reports that Camerons Brewery is selling four pub sites for a combined Β£1.55m: The Wheelhouse in Washington (Β£275,000), The Mitre in Bishop Auckland (Β£350,000), the Head of Steam in Hull (Β£475,000), and the Head of Steam in central Newcastle (Β£450,000, available for sale and leaseback). 

A statement from finance director John Foots explains the strategic review, the rationale for selling these locations, and the company’s continued commitment to the Head of Steam brand, including expansion after success in Manchester. 

The article notes the company opened its first Manchester site in 2019 and now operates 15 Head of Steam locations. Christie & Co is marketing the four sites.

Newcastles Point Blank has closed.

The bar/shooting venue opened in The Gate - which is a mass grave of 'fun' 'concept' bars

Worry not! it will reopen with a new name and a cutting edge concept of VIP areas, Chillaxed Sundays and Ibiza style club nights that have proved so successful in the past

This Saturday I'm going to try and visit 10... Yes 10 new pubs.

The only problem is I have to walk past the Enigma Tap and Seven Stars to get to them

So I imagine it might be no new pubs but plenty of nice beer

I've been diagnosed with low vitamin D which as a ginger (allergic to the sun) and a Goth(scared of the sun) is not really surprising.
