Superb, loved them and really enjoyed my first visit to Liverpool. Can see what you mean in the blog. Really friendly chilled vibe (& great craft beer)

Knew they were there had never seen them. Really impressive, bonus being the fact the tide was out. Well worth popping down if you’re ever up that way.

‘Another Place’ #AntonyGormley #Crosby … Love it! 100 of these chaps dotted up the coast so glad to finally see them.

Meanwhile in ‘High Chai’ news … That was splendid! #Passans #Nottingham … Absolutely stuffed now mind you!

Well that was a fantastic bonus, not only do #BigSpecial drop a surprise (absolutely brilliant) album, they roll into town to back it up with a cracking live show. The new tunes already sounding monumental & a raft of classics sneaked in too. Rough Trade Notts absolutely boiling.

Holiday rules 👏

#StoutSunday up & running …Rich, chocolatey & nutty, sweet with a hint of salt from the pretzel. Warming but no big booze hit. Dangerously quaffable stuff yet again from #VaultCity

Sunday up & running, out & back early doors before the roads melt. Lovely first off, ton of traffic by the end😬🥵 🚴🏻‍♂️

Ooosh! Thick, hoppy, citrusy, smooth as you like …Nothing to see here just @trackbrewingco.bsky.social knocking out another sublime gold top. Fab!

‘Bluest Skies’ appropriate for today … Banging DIPA. Thick, dry & hoppy. Splendid stuff from #PhantomBrewCo

#Hucknall 7pm … Shady manoeuvres as it cools down a tad.

Insane 🥵

Figured I’d best check the tent before its annual #YNotFestival roll out. How come it’s seamless in the garden but way longer to get up & down in The Peaks 🤷‍♂️… Despite it being baking I’d take this weather… sadly looks like Oasis booked the ‘sunshiiiine’ first, so it’ll be the usual rain then!

#Hucknall 3pm Melting 🔥… The point at which I regret not getting the air conditioning re-gassed 🥵

Post work scoop. #Arpus x #Azvex Once again arguably closer to my breakfast smoothies than beer. But absolutely fantastic having said that. Thick as you like, hugely fruity, mandarin the overriding one, hint of tartness … it’s surely got to be good for you?? Sourced #BrewTavern

Weird mixture of old folkies in cardies & walking boots & New Model Army fans… was a great gig from (seriously sketchy) memory 😂

Tuesday morning workshift accompaniment… Back to the start with this absolute classic blast of #Levellers first time I caught these (apart from a potential NMA support) was Bobby Browns in Nottingham June 1990 (confirmed vide their excellent gig archive) Blimey feeling old!
