As promised…
This started life as dictated notes while walking the dog a couple weeks ago, and was intended to be an Instagram post about what it’s like being a part-time cider maker and orchardist. But there are many more out there doing the same afterhours toil. So this is for them.

My favourite part of this was reading each individual section and seeing how quickly I could guess which author it was. @rachelhendry.bsky.social we clearly spend too much time together because I got both of yours at the start of the second sentence 😂

The Pellicle Essential Guide to Pub Ettiquette!

Already noted as curmudgeonly by @boakandbailey.bsky.social, we prefer "righteously bothered."

📢 NEW BLOG POST

Very overdue return for my personal blog.

An exploration of identity and the struggle to hold onto a sense of self when hospitality work requires that you spend a large part of your life shifting your persona to suit the needs of the customer.

Westons' statement that "perry is dead" dismisses centuries-old craftsmanship and cultural significance. Barry (@barmas.bsky.social) argues that education, not erasure, is essential.

This is such bold, adventurous writing from Rachel. Such a pleasure to be able to publish work of this calibre.

for @pelliclemag.com i've written about the formation of The Waitress: a facilitator of desires, a manager of expectations, a performance of manners. about what happens when success is dictated by character, about what it is to serve for a living
