    [Drinking] Samuel Smiths Brewery (Humphrey Smith) - Fascinating Read

    London prices then.... :) Back in day always good for a cheap pint but analogous to a visit to ALDI/LIDL.. Penguin Lager St George Export I remember the bar staff being not particularly friendly when someone asked for a pint of Guinness.

    [Drinking] Samuel Smiths Brewery (Humphrey Smith) - Fascinating Read

    Always the oddest pubs, I haven't been in the Chandos (near Trafalgar Square) or the John Snow in Soho for years. I imagine they are the same as I left them.

    [Politics] Labour Party meltdown incoming.......

    Clearly haven't had a good start, but I think they are working on the basis of getting their controversial stuff out the way early. It's all a game of strategy to me, politics. But since the last lot treated everyone with utter disdain they won't find a way back soon. I do "laugh" remembering...

    [Politics] Labour Party meltdown incoming.......

    The Tories did more than enough to get booted out. Buckle up, there are out for a decade whilst they decide what they are.

    [Politics] Labour Party meltdown incoming.......

    The reality is that no party now in power would be paying out. Political opportunism in opposition is really really annoying, but not as as annoying as the Conservatives and Remain and their merry band of supporters moaning about what they would have done (or not done) anyway. Yeah but no but...

    [News] The Gisele Pelicot trial

    mmmm.... I admit to being somewhat surprised when I first heard (because of the length of the abuse over many years) but after reading the detail of the case I wouldn't be surprised if it has happened elsewhere and is happening now. She knew "something" was wrong, but was examined by doctors...

    [Travel] Has the general standard of driving gone down since Covid

    Yep - almost got flattened in London a few weeks ago by an idiot who took a side road like a corner, mounting the pavement a good two metres in the process. Back of the van smacked into me.

    [Food] Master chef Dan

    A women round here won it once. I was coming back from holiday in a cab and noticed a pub in the high street was shut, with a large group of people surrounding a big TV screen. Got in and watched Masterchef. Didn't realise until years later (after reading an interview) that she worked in that...

    [Help] Ear wax removal

    The sucker outer (well a professional who did my mums) told that is there a big wax build you often gets "holes" you can hear through. Ear drops can sometimes simply fill those holes up, thus making the situation worse.

    [News] Homosexuality and the Armed Forces.

    I would sympathy with that view because the ban was effectively law at the time, irrespective of how the rest of society had moved on. However, there was a shocking review into the previous treatment of service people.

    Can we get back on topic and discuss whether knob fiddlers have closed brains ? That certainly isn't the case from my experience.

    [Football] Michail Antonio involved in road accident

    Took someone's front garden out whilst they were eating their Xmas dinner. Someone could easily have been killed, it's on a pedestrian crossing near Wandsworth Common. You shouldn't be driving that fast around there to have an accident...
