Interesting beer price list (I believe from a wholesaler of the time) dating back almost 50 years to 1976. It's good to see some familiar names!

My daughter's been working really hard for many weeks now, revising for her GCSEs. I feel bad that I'm taking her to Old Trafford tomorrow on an afternoon off from studying. I fully appreciate that it's not great parenting, but it will make revision feel more enjoyable.

The nerves I'm feeling today are reminiscent of the Champions League final v Chelsea in 2008. The difference that day was that we were the two best teams in Europe, which is definitely not the case tonight!

That was my 25th road marathon, and, having had plenty of time en route to consider it, definitely the hardest one! I don't recall seeing so many runners collapsed by the side of the course and after the finish. I hope everyone is OK π

The penultimate night's sleep before a race is always the most important, so that was a success, but having kept away from all ailments in 2025, why do I feel like I'm starting with something now?! π¬

Scholes & Ferdinand, when talking about the players who wouldn't score for Man Utd tonight, named both Ugarte & Dalot. United's two scorers in that first half? Yes, you guessed it!

This is what Labour's 'Growth Budget' is doing to the hospitality sector. It's pretty demoralising to read this from one of the UK's fastest growth companies over the past decade. [Source: Propel]
