Energy bills, water bills, NHS dental costs, council tax… The amount of bills increasing seems like an April Fool's joke: but it’s not. 🤡 The Government must start doing more to help. Sign the petition now! 38d.gs/2n6p

A bit of Gronk + Queen Mary action at EG @bluebellrailway this afternoon ...

Last two beers of 2024. From @WelbeckAbbeyBry, Cocoa Noel a decent 5.5% chocolate stout and, to finish the year, from @thornbridge Necessary Evil 2022, a sumptuous 13% barrel aged stout; smooth and with many complex tones. Happy New Year!!
Tonight’s tipple: a night late because of a sore throat, my solstice supping of the year before last’s @fullers Vintage to mark the lengthening of the days. The evenings have been drawing out for a few nights already but the mornings don’t get lighter for a while
