Apropos of nothing - "If I went around saying that I was an emporer 'cos some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me they'd put me away!"

Actually, I think Dirty Sanchez did this with Stella.

A winning combination.

Haven't read the article yet, but it's a fantastic pub and I'm a big fan of Mws Pws beers. And their ice cream.

We already have a fullback We already have a kiwi fullback We already have a kiwi fullback from Canterbury We already have a kiwi fullback from canterbury with a Welsh mum We already have a kiwi fullback from canterbury with a Welsh mum called Murray BUT SURE WHY NOT ANOTHER???

www.theguardian.com/food/2026/ju... I was in Brum last weekend. Unless you get a bus down to the Triangle (25-30mins) it's pretty much impossible to find a Balti in the city centre.

One of my favourite albums of all time.

Every time a video gets copyright struck (As happened with our UBB v Bath review), the next few are always massively punished by YouTube’s algorithm. You’re essentially forced to rebuild an audience from scratch. Shining a light on T2 rugby is hard enough, so any support is appreciated-

I've just seen an advert for "A truly personal IVF experience." I can't think of many things more inherently personal than having a fertilised egg inserted up the vagina and attached to the uterus. Like advertising "bespoke hairdressing." Yes, it is.

Tiny Rebel aren't putting any more Cwtsh on cask, so opted for a Clwb... £6.50! In Kerdiff! Absolute wankstains. This isn't fucking London. Honestly, used to love this place about ten years ago, do the owners not give a shit any more?

Watching a lot of the Wales players walk across Westgate St into town. They do not look very happy. Perhaps they already know that @tinyrebel.bsky.social has run out of Cwtsh on cask.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - DJs in rugby stadia should be shot.

@bbcradio6musicbot.bsky.social - What was that shit?

Could all TV rugby pundits get this in to their thick skulls - especially Jiffy - kicking is actually a key tactic in the game! Keep up. youtu.be/OU2zCvikdMs?...

Could have happened to any of us.

Beth Hapworth, 38, who needs clear and direct communication from others in order to avoid misunderstandings, has reportedly become an expert in dancing around, pussyfooting and eggshell-treading.

It's reductive to compare university studies to their real world application, but the ability to open a bottle of beer with a piece of paper has come in handy once again, whereas lectures on the Thai royal family have not.

This is essential viewing. Keep fighting the good fight Squidge. And fuck the WRU!

Accidentally read some comments under the BBC article on CYM v ALB. Wow, a lot of people really don't like female commentary teams do they?

Just discovered white rioja, and can confirm that it pairs fantastically with the olive and garlic crisps that are in Lidl atm.

@bbcradio6musicbot.bsky.social Whatever this is, it's fucking awful.

The Evening Star, Brighton. Quality pub.

HSB and ESB! Lovely to see, but it's not going to tempt me away from the TPP.

The Basketmakets Arms, Brighton. A fantastic pub. It's busy. They're playing Squeeze. Serving TPP. Why are more pubs not like this?

England capt Meg Jones is being interviewed on R4. Would probably be capt of Cymru right now, if it wasn't for the WRU being run by old men whose skills are limited to running the weekly meat raffle at Cwmllynfell RGC.

Last day of March and I've just published my third pub write-up of the year! Will I be able to keep up this red hot pace for the rest of year? The answer is no. beer-aeth.blogspot.com/2026/03/the-...

Realistically, there's only one choice.

Currently in the Abyss Brewery taproom. Given the playlist, absence of beer mats, and preference for kegged beer I worry that this place might be a bit too cool for me. Did my best to blend in by ordering a dark mild on cask.

And they're playing Grandmaster Flash. Great way to spend a Friday afternoon.

Currently ensconced in one of my top pubs of 2025.

Pilot Scotch Export (4.6% abv) at The Hope. Living the dream.

Twattin' tonight!

www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle... I would just like to say that I 100% endorse this policy. There are few things liable to ruin a pub than a load of sugared-up, screeching sprogs and parents who think it's just free childminding.

I've just paid €13.50 for an airport beer. €13.50! I'm so angry I could genuinely launch a coup.

What's the point in having a Kwak if the glass stands up without the aid of a piece of apparatus?

Earlier today I watched Wales win a game of rugby. Wonders never cease.

Always relieved to turn back to the BBC for a game. Not looking forward to Jiffy failing to understand the principles behind tactical kicking. AGAIN. #M6N #WALvITA

Here's a question; do pubs need a bartender to act as a maître d'? Example, there's a table for four with two people on it, and two people walking up and down the pub looking for seats... should a member of staff step in and seat them?

www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-... I see the Wales team has been announced. Any chance of an article on this @sport.theguardian.com or too busy planning the next England piece?

Rules of the pub no. 94: Never just wave your card machine at a patron and expect payment. Firstly, I like to know the price of a beer; secondly I want to see that I'm being charged correctly; and thirdly IT'S JUST FUCKING RUDE!

@sport.theguardian.com It might interest you to know that teams other than England play rugby, and since your newspaper is also sold outside England, how about writing some articles about a rugby team that isn't fucking England?

Too quickly Yr Wyddfa becomes Snowdon and Eryri becomes Snowdonia, all because it’s ‘too complicated’ to say. Villages get their own pronunciation, with a notable butchering being the ear-splitting transformation of Llanberis to Lamb-berries ✍️Jac Jones

@squidgerugby.bsky.social Which French team have turned up, and could this be Scotland's year?

#M6N 2027 - I reckon Wales are going to be decent. But this beer is 10.5%, so make of that what you will.

Watching #IREvWAL reminded of Tim's soliloquy in The Office "Life isn't about endings, is it? It's a series of moments. It's like, if you turn the camera off, it's not an ending, is it? I'm still here. My life's not over. Come back in ten years. See how I'm doing then."

Dydd gwyl Dewi hapus!

The Traf in South Wimbo. One of my favourite pubs, even if I don't come as often as I should (The Hope is closer). If you turn up with a copy of Thin Lizzy Live & Dangerous on vinyl, they will play it for you.

From the Union. I can drink this beer despite the actions of Carlsberg. Maybe someone can run Sharps brewery properly now MC don't want it? Thanks @thornbridge.bsky.social
