It's not even my name any more, why do I feel the need to bagsy it everywhere?
Canterbury kinda feels like York without the personality. Or wide range of decent pubs

No time to explore Chatham. I’m told this place is quite happening these days. I’ll find an excuse to visit it exclusively.

Hopefully the chalky mud on my trousers will be dry by the time I get to Canterbury and be easily removable. Don’t have spare breeks

Bacon butty and a coffee at the closed cafe I wandered past last night. I find myself on the edge of a park designed by Capability Brown (Gatton Park). Which I would be cycling through if on two-wheels. Not sure this trip is doing what I hoped for me

Survived my night in the murder motel. Fastest way for me to get to my next stop is to go back into London and out again. Not having that. This may take some time

Breakfast tea supplied in the room ✅

Another ten job applications off. A quick call with a recruiter. Let’s investigate the town.

Maybe post will help. It’s started raining. So, killing an hour or so with job applications in the Prince of Wales, Reigate

The Romanian restaurant by the hotel doesn’t open Mondays. Noted for when I do try cycling this

For reasons (too long to go into) first visit to The Laurieston. Lovely place. Kinda like all pubs were back when I started drinking. (The Jarl’s sour, though)

Well, there's an application form first

Perfect albums from the year I turned 16

This would be easier a year either side

I wanted to catch the John Maher Teenage Buzzcock photo exhibition back in April. Circumstances got in the way. Was ecstatic to see it was now on at Hillhead Library. Made the trip there today

This photo is Proustian to me. (Also taken by an acquaintance who does too early)

A friend has posted this on Facebook. I’m currently looking for an Inigo Montoya picture with “I do not think it means what you think it means” to reply with

(I’m also considering just letting it go. But, I have nearly bit my tongue in half)

My first experience of the reinstated Belgian-ish New Belgium’s Fat Tire. It’s better than it was non-Belgian-ish. But not quite what it used to be

2022 version. Watching the new Fletch movie. (Whoever has the money really should have let Kevin Smith do this. Especially with the Hamm)

2023. Why didn’t I start with this one? Yeah. Very good question.

It’s good. I need to get back to Diksmuide

Starting with the unknown aged one. All I can say is it smells and tastes like an old bottle of beer. A really fucken good beer. I want you all to have a shot on it. But, hey, just me then….

One of the many unwritten laws of humanity is that - even if you only came in to use the toilet - if you see this on a bar you need to stop for at least one pint. Preferably two

John Lithgow is playng Roald Dahl at the Royal Court. His accent was always a little odd. I'm kinda hoping The Lith goes full Lizardo on it. (Will never know as it's sold out. So, I'm going to keep thinking so.)
