Episode 29 of Reclining Pair - out now.

Nina visits Phipps NBC Brewery, Northampton, who are brewing us a special collab Hopfenweisse, I quiz her on her great passion - the clarinet, and we talk about crystals, Midsomer Murders, Joe Pasquale and Supertramp.

The photo shows an American breakfast plate, but the knife and fork either side are clarinets, hinting at this month's quiz, and there's a quote from the Supertramp song, Breakfast in America. Reclining Pair, episode 29, out now.

This was one of the best things ever on Twitter, I'm so glad Mike is reprising it here.

A few years ago during Covid, when like a lot of the country, I was going batshit, I started a mini Grand Designs, on Twitter, using tiny 18mm figures.

And if people enjoyed it there, maybe they'll enjoy it here.

Meet Tom & Sue.

This seems to be getting a bit of attention again.

If you like this flavour of nonsense, you'll enjoy the local news section of our podcast 🙏

Never had a treacle scone either.

I love treacle and feel it's criminally underrepresented.

Treacle tart, for example. Made with syrup... 😯

I'd make mine with treacle, dammit, and to hell with the bureaucrats at Whitehall.

Centrefold of Ken Pond with pipe and sock garters. The ruin of many a teenage girl.

Never made soda bread. Treacle sounds good though 🤔

Oh course I was married to Nicole Kidman back when all she was bothered about was Pogs.
