So after Thursday’s initial tour around the Baltic Sea with some great Finnish, Latvian, Russian and Lithuanian drops, now we head south and west for Germany, Poland, Denmark and Sweden. The last two weren’t great 🤢

Tried this Georgian “white” last night @gwladruns.bsky.social

Unlike most clear orange (white) drops it was full of flavour, a magnificent drop.

The third Pirates of the Caribbean film. Watched it 1,000 times with my lad when he was a pup.
6. What film do you think you could quote 50% of the dialogue while watching?

Probably John Lennon’s death. Everyone was talking about it on the school bus to Wigan swimming baths. I didn’t know who he was.
1. What was the first major news story you remember as a child?

Come on, at least one of you Merseyside based non-league hipster folk must have watched Adam Moseley play for Runcorn Linnets. Is he any good?
