Looking forward to South Herts @camraofficial.bsky.social AGM this pm. Guest speaker my friend @petebrownbeer.bsky.social talking about his book Clubland, a lively societal history of working men's clubs. Appropriately in a St Albans club, but @camraofficial.bsky.social members only.

Lovely walk round Harrison’s Wood. Happy New Year to all my fantastic friends! Cheers! #walks #newyear #friends #2026

Happy Christmas everyone. Santa is coming! #christmas #familyandfriends #yuletide

Merry Christmas friends & colleagues, & all the brewers & publicans working hard for our treasured pubs. Greetings to Never Trumpers friends across the Pond. Thanks to Simon Walkden @thornbridge.bsky.social for his image of the Cricket Inn, Totley, Sheffield, with log fires blazing inside.

Exactly right. The lottery heritage fund, @historicengland.bsky.social and all involved with the Iron Duke treated publicans appallingly and chose a duo who own burger bars to run this historic public house. Costing 2.5 million of public money.

This is all marvellous but a shame that Historic England listing doesn't necessarily save the heritage & function of a pub, even when vast public resources have been used to save the building, as in the Art Deco masterpiece the Iron Duke. @sovenna.bsky.social

Cheers Mike, one of @camraofficial.bsky.social #GBG famous five in all editions too. #ChristmasPubs

Reports that Unilever is seeking a buyer for #Marmite. Burton on Trent is the home of Marmite, made from spent yeast from the still surrounding breweries. Fears that production could move out of the town. Is nothing sacred, or are we to see Carlsberg Marmite Britvic?

🎄Marble Arch is officially Christmas ready!🎄 Every light tells a story, and this year ours is one of togetherness. Thank you to Tracy, Chris, Paul and little Frankie for helping make the Marble Arch shine so beautifully. Your love and effort are the true sparkle of the season. 🎄💫

Get ready for a fine choice of seasonal beers protzonbeer.co.uk/features/202... @orbitbeers.bsky.social

Beautiful Blickling Christmas lights. Magical. #heritage #christmas #blicklinghall #norfolk #celebration #advent

Decs finally up after what seems like an age painting! December the 1st tomorrow, advent has started. Happy Christmas! #advent #december #christmas.

Flatiron Building, New York City, Built 1902

Good to see the wonderfully preserved King's Head still serving top cask ale - inc. Beechwood Bitter & Chiltern Pale Ale - & food under the management of Chiltern Brewery. #BskyBeer

Remembering all those who served our Great Country. Fought so bravely, gave their young lives. The families at home who kept us going in the darkest of times. Respect and remembrance. #remembranceday #poppy #service #respect

This is a simple church but absolutely beautiful. Caistor St Edmund. Steeped in history. Well worth a visit.

This is the stunning church in Caistor St Edmund. We were very lucky to hear a gentleman playing the bagpipes in the church, he plays here every day. .#historic #church #norfolk #bagpipes

My friend and I often walk round the Roman Ruins in Caistor St Edmund. Sadly you now have to pay to park. It’s a much loved place for walkers. #roman #heritage #norfolk. #walks

The majestic Wells Cathedral in all its splendor. The Scissor Arches you see were built in 1348 The cathedral’s central tower had been completed by 1313, but its weight caused foundation shifts. To prevent collapse, they designed the arches as a bracing system to redistribute the tower’s weight.

My piece in the current Private Eye on Carlsberg Britvic's killing of breweries; Jennings saved. #BskyBeer

All over the UK we have historic sites. We visited Creake Abbey near Burnham Market. It’s an Augustinian ruined abbey. Stunning. #abbey #historic #monks #norfolk #burnhammarket

Did you see the Council quote in a press article, 94% wanted a pub with food, only 4% wanted a wet led pub? What a cynical manipulation of Qs & outcomes. Everyone wanted a pub of that size to do food, just not Zaks.

Love those 1930's pubs pubgallery.co.uk/2024/04/18/a...

Restoration underway of Iron Duke, Gt Yarmouth, saved/listed thanks @sovenna.bsky.social SaveDuke. Sad the art deco icon will be run by Zaks serving "American themed BBQ ribs burgers hot dogs." Decision by a narrow cabal at the Council, no publicans allowed to pitch, & travesty "public consultation"

Elon Musk and JD Vance lead outrage over 'sacrilegious' graffiti art installation at Canterbury Cathedral

Seaside season may have ended but the Evening Star, close to Brighton Station, is the perfect place for a cosy pint from their superb #Cask range before hitting the iron road. #BskyBeer

Good to see Gales historic beers still in production. As well as Prize Old Ale, to the credit of @brewhenry.bsky.social, Fuller's continue to brew Horndean Special Bitter 4.8%, first brewed 1959, using the original recipe. Rich, fruity & malty. #BskyBeer

A mini break in Lincoln. Family and friends. #lincoln #cathedral #history #citybreak

This is the third local pub in about as many weeks that I thought would never reopen @rogerprotz.bsky.social . First visit to the Jolly Gardeners in Chester in I can't remember how many years. Beers very good and the interior is still superb. Nice new sun trap beer garden too

There’s a new look for The Parcel Yard pub, at King’s Cross Station, London, with the return of the Loft Bar and Restaurant, and a touch of opulence throughout beertoday.co.uk/2025/09/19/p... #pub #pubnews #london #kingscross

#CaskAleWeek is up & running, annual celebration of our national beer style. 10K pubs participating, from quizzes to free tasters, Fests supporting inc. @yorkbeerfestival.bsky.social @stalbansbf.bsky.social & Palmer's Brewery, Bridport. Celebrations to #SupportCask #SupportPubs #CaskMarque

Lovely visit to Aldeburgh. Finally got to Maggie Hambling’s superb sculpture. #suffolk #beach #aldeburgh #sculpture #sunnyday

The Walham Green 📍472 Fulham Rd., London SW6 1BY This pub is located close to Stamford Bridge in Fulham, West London. The pub opened in July this year and is located in the former entrance building and ticket hall of Fulham Broadway tube station, built in 1910. A thread 🧵

The station was originally called Walham Green, after the village that once occupied what is now Fulham Broadway. In 1952, its name was changed to Fulham Broadway.

This is the Ocean Rooms, once known as the Floral Hall in Gorleston on Sea. It’s an art deco beauty, at risk sadly. Owned by the council who despite their bluster would happily demolish it. Everyone came here to dance, for functions. #artdeco #dancehall #beach #seaside #venue #norfolk
