Oh dear it's #ripJamesBond now Amazon are in control. It will be like Disney/Star Wars as every possible drop will be squeezed from Bond.

Hmm just spotted this on the BBC website. A comedy about metal detecting. I'm not sure if that's going to work, BBC.

Picked up sacks of grains at Muntons in Stowmarket. No onsite photos this time, but here's the brewery assistant buying some refreshments at the nearby tescos.

I was out last night at #colchester Arts Centre watching Magpie Arc, vg as ever, but missed the HOUSE Of ALL 6 Music session (the third they've done) so have been listening to that post-gym. Clear vinyl LP of their third album being shipped out soon.

I really enjoyed Paul Murray's 'Skippy Dies' recently, so much so that I've now decided to hoover his oeuvre and I've just read his 'An Evening of Long Goodbyes' which was his first novel, similarly long, and similarly darkly comic and a page-turner. Whitbread Best First Novel nominated. VG.

Right, so the plan is for us to take the grains from yesterday's brewday to the farm for the beasts,cafe visit, then to be dropped off at the Colchester Winter Beer Festival 2025. Here's a photo of the Colchester Winter Beer Festival 2015. 2025?????? How is that possible?
