Those snacks are fantastic. I've never seen snacking pickles before. I need to keep my eyes peeled.

They seem to be spending a fair amount when they're doing them up

You'd think it would be a bit difficult. As you say it's tiny inside and only room for a few seats outside. I wish them all the best though.

A good read. Thanks

Nice to see you...

Ideal for me too

I enjoyed this series. Cheers Nick.

Small stage at Cluny 2 in Newcastle but all of Reeling in the Dan managed to fit on last night and give a tremendous performance. Well worth seeking out on their current tour.

Sold out 10cc gig at the Glasshouse Gateshead last night. They did all the hits. Great night. That was the second night of their tour so plenty of time to see them.

Looks like they're used to the riverdancer in there

I hate it when you get that attitude from bar staff. It takes a bit of courage to speak up about a bad pint.

A strong mild always seems wrong - although I've enjoyed a few.

Nice

Have a good day

Tonight at Glasshouse 2 enjoyed Andy Fairweather Low. Still going strong. He's playing the same venue tomorrow (Friday). Worth seeing if there's any spare seats.

Due to our difference in age I would have said Harrold in the voice of Albert Steptoe

There's plenty of worse ways to spend a day

You're doing great Barry. Don't go mad though

Looks massive

Let's hope bobble hat man is smiling after the rugby tomorrow - although I wouldn't put too much money on it.

The Guide is looking quite well worn already

Great evening at the Glasshouse last night. Transatlantic Sessions was well up to its usual standard. I'd recommend you go and see it on the rest of the tour.

Great news

I remember we once played a match in the middle of Skewen dog track. It wasn't very nice.

They usually have Stu Brew beers on - microbrewery run by Newcastle Uni students. Exam Room Tears is a particular favourite.

Wolf's generally a good pint. Nice to see you up our way again

If you're ever in Swansea, Beer Riff's tap just by the marina is well worth visiting.
