God knows how many times I've seen them. I bloody love them.
The first time was 1992 in the Ulster hall supported by Silverfish and Indust - the last time was 2024 in the Ulster hall for the 30th anniversary of Troublegum.
Not that I could complain because it looks like my page has been blocked by them
Hold on a minute that's my photo - suppose it's being used to promote pubs so I can't really complain
It's always been more expensive than over here but it's getting ludicrous.. I had a 'discussion' with a NI Landlord and he tried to justify the hefty price of Guinness on Import and transport costs.
It's brewed 2 hours away and the last I checked Newcastle is further away
It's been a while since I've had one ( last year) and I think it was £5.40 and it was on par with the pints in Belfast
The Beer Brother was in Belfast Deers Head the other week and apparently the Guinness is going up 7 quid a pint.
I appreciate cost pressures. But a pint of The Cack Stuff is still about a fiver in Newcastle Centre.
Released 33 years ago.
Will always remind me of The Northwest 200
Newcastle's former Pravda bar is being turned into a gaming hub and cafe bar.
It's good to see the long closed (15 odd years) place being reopened.
Urban explorers accessed the building and it's still in good nick

I'm launching 'Markin MaGuiness'
Where I'll review the #Guinness in some of the finest money laundering establishments the 6 county bastard statelet has to offer.
I'll also launch
‘Free PresBEERterian’ where I'll take my traditional route to mission halls to enjoy room temperature tap water
Happy International "When is international mans day?!?!" day to all the dickheads who celebrate it
I never appreciated how high up we got that sticker ( you need to open the video to see the top one)
The importance of pubs summed up.

This is the shitest peice of tech I own, even worse than the GX4000 Amstrad Games Condole
kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it
Anyways.
World book day so sent the little one to school as Marshal of the Soviet Union Gregory Zhukov from our favourite book Stalingrad
This does more than just boil an egg, it makes omelettes and poaches then .. it's a wonder of 1970s technology
Thought I would photograph my ill gotten gains, before it joins the sandwich toaster in the cupboard
If I owned a pub, I'd close for maintenance on St Patrick's day as well
Love a bit mid/late 80s thrash
I have a 'Survive' picture disk knocking around somewhere
(checks Discogs)
Probably should try and find it

The Yardhouse - Tynemouth
- Absolutely tiny pub tucked away in a post office
- good selection of cans and I think they had 4 Taps
- they weren't strictly 'open' but the wee woman behind the counter let me pull up a chair and enjoy a can

If the AI robots want to use my body as a battery and plug my consciousness into a simulation of the late 90s they absolutely 100% have my permission
Everything is Terrible.
This could be me.
If I was easily excitable and impressed by everything
'Aren't pubs brilliant , you go in you give them money and they give you beer
Isn't beer brilliant it's stagnant water with leaves and seeds in it and if you leave it fungus grows on it and it creates alcohol'

Standing In front of a house fire
It's not all doom and gloom, I won an electric egg cooker on the postcode lottery.
Looking forward to it burning my house down
