Early for a train so nipped in a @tobycarvery.bsky.social across the road for a quick pint.
Am told more than 300 booked in for lunch plus walk ins.
One, that's one member of staff rotored on the bar.
No wonder hospitality is on its knees.

Not wrong.

Righto, I am off to walk among polar bears.
I will be fine, if they don't choose to eat me.

All inbound wine freight charges from Europe up 12% from Monday. And almost all of that is via electric train.
All UK outbound wine deliveries up from Monday too, rate to be confirmed.
Fuck Trump.
Small issues compared to those in the war zone.
But people should know this is inflation in real time.

If you're going to see the ever magnificent Alabama 3 doing an acoustic set, then you may as well book yourself a decent table....
Bring it on!

PS was walking through 1st class to the toilet.
I was only in 1st class as some offer / early booking etc.
6 bottles of wine, all open, all 80% full.
He stops and says
"this looks like a story, why are they all open?".
I got him a glass and that was that!

Fabulous stuff mate. I had no idea.
Shared a table on a train with Saville and 6 bottles of fine red wine on a Manchester to Euston train about twenty years ago. It was quite a couple of hours. πŸ˜‰πŸ·πŸ·

Who’s the figure in the distance?

A record sleeve designed by Peter Saville for George Michael set in London’s Hyde Park. George was too anxious to be seen out in public so persuaded a stunt double to take on his role as a solitary pedestrian…… it’s Saville himself.

I'd be delighted!
Did I ever tell you the story of when New Order management asked me to go on a USA tour with them as tour Sommelier?

I need to check about 16, but I was born* a fortnight early and with Englebert Humperdink's 'Please Release Me' at number one.
Seems fair. At least my mum thought so.

I'm out gigging with Mr Dingley Dell himself tomorrow, I'll let him know, he will be mortified. In 20 odd years of sampling his wares they have never been anything other than fabulous.
