A wonderful picture from about 1912 of the Theatre Royal In Guildford. It once featured Dame Nelly Melba! The bottom left hand corner might be of interest to beer lovers. The town had a few great local Breweries. Friary Meux being the most famous.

Come on you Irons! 0-1 up but Bournemouth have been the better side! El Hadji has had some great moments though. Letโ€™s see a better 2nd half. โš’๏ธ

Such a well deserved award for The Lost Bookshop. An engrossing, well written, flowing & involving book. Thank you. Loved The Story Collector too, fascinating folklore. French Bakery next!

Its Friday! Lovely sunny afternoon with a great, clean pint of Dave Best from a local Arundel Brewery. At The George in Felpham. Cheers all!

What a rare find & fabulous pint from the amazing Loch Fyne Brewery. Iโ€™ve been loving their beers since the early Maverick days & they make you very welcome at their beautifully sited business.

Is this still a planet that you can avoid the control of Darth Musk on or have the swarm troopers moved in to trap the rebels already? #maythefalsebewithyou

Itโ€™s, sadly, the way modern business world works. People create the problems that they then earn a lot of money from then โ€˜fixingโ€™.

Totally agree. An easily quaffable ale, much like Loch Fyneโ€™s Highlander.

@guildfordhoward.bsky.social Should be an interesting series of talks at The Reclaim Conference, Univ of Surrey, today. Especially in view the new Guildford developments.

What a totally boring 1st half. I was expecting more from this formation. #COYI MAYBE Soler will make a difference?
