The triple wrapped, hermetically sealed in a plastic box Camembert has been evicted from the fridge and now resides in the greenhouse. Smelly bastard I will enjoy eating you!!!!

A brisk pre-Christmas walk to the Tap, a pint of @downlandsbrewery.bsky.social Evening Star Revival and a brisk walk home. Revival is a pale APA that is reminiscent of an old favourite before the big boys got hold of it. I like it a lot!

Spent yesterday with the grandchildren at Hever Castle, exhausting but fun. Still trying to convince the five year old it’s pronounced Heav’er and not Hev’er. Five year olds know everything!

My MP just sent me a Christmas card, thought for a minute she drew it herself but it was the winner in a children’s competition! Oh well, at least it has reminded me what her name is!

This continuous grey overcast weather, often raining, sometimes windy, does nothing to cheer the soul, we need some winter sun to encourage both me and the boy it’s worth getting up in the morning!

This so called ‘Peace’ prize awarded to Trump by FIFA leaves me feeling quite nauseous. Peace has to be justifiable and not at any cost. It has been created for Trump, and is complete brown nosing from Infantino and FIFA.

Disappointing visit to the local tap. Far too many overpriced poor hazy pales, can we get back to some crisp, clean beers of merit. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy hazy pales but they have to better than tonight’s offering!

With all the references to AI nowadays, my mind still conjures up the image of a man in a rubber apron and carrying a ‘straw’ of semen advancing on the rear end of a cow. My agricultural heritage I guess. One could say the Milk Marketing Board was ahead of its time as the first used AI in 1940!

Just done some seasonal maintenance on Mr Shifty (he has shifty eyes). Re-seal the bulb holder and a new plug! This is his 38th Christmas and he still has the same broom, lazy bugger. I’ve worn out countless ones in that time which is why he looks in better nick than me!

Loads to do in the garden, but I’ve been driven inside by… Snow! Unheard of in Mid-Sussex.

My Grandfather fought in the trenches in ww1, he was hit in the chest by shrapnel and pronounced dead. During a lull in shelling, the mortuary stretcher team carried him up the steep sides feet first, at the top he complained bitterly at the rough treatment!

Not a big fan of Halloween but that cat! Its tail is over gutter height and it frightened the crap out of the dog as we walked past.

21000 new homes given go ahead in our area and we have less than six weeks drinking water supply in our reservoirs? Previous developments involved schools, doctors surgeries and other infrastructure none of which materialised. It’s a shitstorm!

Ouse Booze is back, 25 years ago Lewes flooded and Harvey’s Brewery was evacuated as water washed barrels down the Ouse and out to sea. The half days brews were combined and left to ferment above the flood. It was later sold to help flood relief. The anniversary re-brew is available in cans now.

Tudno Pils from Wild Horse Brewing Co. West Coast Pilsner, is that a thing? Apparently it is, and it’s not bad either.
