Excellent afternoon in The Queen #doncaster - some great acts playing. I also played 🙂

Won on the bonus ball in The Plough, just been having a look to see if there were any interesting books out 🤨 #princeandrew

Out in Hatfield Woodhouse last night, another open mic. Good evening, and following it with the Folk Session in @donny-brewery-tap.bsky.social today. #doncaster

What I miss from the old place is the fun encounters you could have with celebs

That mist rolled in a bit quick when I got on the A1(M) this afternoon, no pirates - ghostly or otherwise - near the River Don though. Yarrrr! 🏴‍☠️

On the train home, as I've decided to come back via Marylebone and Birmingham, I got to the station by going via Willesden Junction and Euston 🤨

I feel I should be finishing every post with thank you for your attention to this matter. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Last evening before home, even the parakeets have realised this would be an appropriate time to shut up 🫡

Made it to the Red Cow, Hammersmith, nearly 50 years and a name change (Latymers?) too late, which makes a change 🙄

I'm in Stratford, at the Cart and Horses, the birthplace of Iron Maiden. Pints of The Trooper - keg lager version - are on sale at £6.66, obviously

Seen the pub AC/DC did their first UK gig in (The Red Cow, now Latymers, 23-04-76), before going to The Havelock Tavern for dinner. Again 😊

Went up to see the Trellick Tower first thing, walked back down the canal to Paddington (it's like the one at Leeds, but people don't say hello), then finally made it to the Design Museum 🥰

Air Force One had a minor technical issue and had to turn around. That issue...They had a nut loose on board.

A few blue plaques and sights from around Highgate, I've been past George Michael's house (it's near JB Priestley's), but there's no sign. There is off-street parking though...

Walked from Highbury & Islington to Highgate, via the parkland walk, currently in the Woodman, as once frequented by Syd Barratt (last time I came past here it was closed, last time I came past here it was 07:45) 😄 @robynhitchcock.bsky.social

Had an early journey from Addison Road to Crystal Palace, but what's left of it is currently closed 🤨

Excellent show #theproducers - tube back to the hotel quiet, had to remind myself that when the signs on the station said "Way out - Broadway", they meant Hammersmith Broadway 🤭

I'm sure this will be something different 🙂

Nearly 4 hours in the British Museum, just when I thought I'd seen everything I found Korea, or Mexico. Off to the theatre in a bit 😄

Stopped for a break, keep finding extra rooms in here ... 😀

Went up Carnaby Street, dinner at Amarcord, and then into the British Museum to avoid the drizzle

More wandering, found Handel, Hendrix, The Beatles (again) and Bowie.

Changed at Westminster underground, seemed to be quite a way down to the jubilee line, expected the next escalator down to bring me out in Australia 🦘

I went down to the Chelsea Drugstore It was closed, So Boots it is then ... 🤔

Early start, and I'm outside the grounds of some minor League team - Fulham South FC?

Probably the last call of today, the Brook Green Hotel. 100% Endurance by Yard Act on the sound system, prices veering towards Leeds 🤨

Headed to the Havelock Tavern, #brookgreen, for a "starter". Hummus, charred padrons, sriracha sauce, giant corn & fried pizza bread. Enough for a full meal, for me, and lovely. £9.something 👌

Checked in, and straight down the riverside, currently in the little rooftop beer garden of The Dove, Hammersmith

Walking to the hotel, I'm sure there were parakeets in the trees on #BrookGreen, do decided to shelter from them in the Queen's Head. The Fullers London Village Porter is worth the stop 😊

Dinner at The Churchill #kensington, the Pad Priew Wan is bloody marvellous ♥️ £14, so not too expensive either

No wonder I missed this last year 🫡

"Welcome to your seat On your journey out If you'd like to eat Or you're wanting; * Live journey Information * Maps of your destination Everybody scan the QR Code" (With my sincere apologies to Tears for Fears)

Off out, sat on Gregg's at French gate, one of the staff is impressed with the "killer shirt/tie combination" I have on. Public Image Ltd by Public Image Ltd is on the shopping centre stereo. Very Good start to the day, basically 🥰

London's Sadiq Khan on Zahawi and Jenrick joining Reform ... "Same cockroaches, different restaurant." 👏

www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte... He'll disappear when the sun comes out... 🤨 #mandelson

Up Sykehouse again at The Old George, open mic night 😁 The new Dry Cleaning album has been on on the drive up, very good 👌

“I have a harmonium and it’s going to explode in two minutes” Ivor Cutler (1923–2006) – poet, singer, musician, songwriter, artist, humorist – was born #OTD, 15 Jan In 2013, to mark what would have been his 90th birthday, BBC Radio 4 celebrated his life & career: 1/7 www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b...

I'm hearing Jenrick plans to challenge for the leadership.

Far Right, surely @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social ? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Had a proper look at the mural in #chesterfield yesterday, found the Buddy Holly but now that a fruit and veg stand isn't in the way

I'm not sure who I am, but it's great to be here.

At @donny-brewery-tap.bsky.social for the Unplugged music session, along with half of Southampton 🤣

He only did it because he'd been barred from Pizza Express in Woking, apparently 🤔

First in to @donny-brewery-tap.bsky.social - working up the courage to try the Imperial Stouts in @dystopiabar.bsky.social upstairs 😊 #doncaster #realale

Bit disappointed to see we've missed the Snowpocalypse so far, if it can hold off til I get to the pub this aft that'd be nice 🫡

Some of us braved the storm, that still hasn't turned up, at The White Swan this afternoon.🫡

Back out playing an open mic at The White Swan, first time in just over a fortnight 😁

In the Marketplace Alehouse, for one of the last times, before it gets absorbed into The Temple (and all the decent ale doesn't follow) 🫤

Really great 😍 www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

I don't know if the pub was here, it's a Crazy Golf course now, it's also too early for either 🙄
