    Having had to miss travelling to Stevenage today, as COVID finally got me this week, I had to make do with watching today's match on iFollow.

    To celebrate the win, for this evening, I have a couple of Belgian bottle conditioned ales lined up:
    1) Brouwerij Van Steenberge Bornem Dubbel 7.2%; and
    2) Brouwerij Van Steenberge Bornem Tripel 9%.

    Still testing positive, so it's another iFollow night for me.

    To accompany tonight's match, I'll be working on a mini cask of Kelham Island Pale Rider 5.2%.

    ...or a brunette, or a raven-haired enchantress, or... (just remember to keep the wife and girlfriend(s) apart).

    Ahem. Back to more important matters: the match and drinks. A nice hoppy IPA is called for, methinks.

    It's all printed.

    Remember when Space Invaders was the latest and greatest in computer games? Tell that to the kids today and will they believe you?

    I was showing some of my students some YouTube video , they thought it was hysterical. But when I told them the colour change was due to a colored plastic strip under the screen they thought I’d lost my mind.

    Went to the media museum a few years ago with the kids. They have a vintage video games section including Space Invaders and Defender. Kids absolutely wet themselves when I told them they were 'state of the art' in my day!!

    Given the strength and description, I thought that "Lori" (meaning "nonsense" and the like) was rather appropriate for the brewery's name. But I see it is actually the Sori brewery. Oh well.

    Crisis situation at RCB Towers: only one tin -- of a Nicaraguan lager -- in the house. Horrors! Must go out shopping now, before supper, and remedy that situation!

    Got back home, from tonight's match, at 22:01, so got time for a few beers.

    As we played like our players had two left feet, we failed to do a proper job on Walsall and we were anything but sure shots, I've lined up an appropriate selection:

    Starting with: Track Brewery (Manchester) Two Left Feet Pale Ale 5.0%
    Followed By: St Austell (Cornwall) Proper Job IPA 5.5%
    And Finally: Sureshot Brewery (Manchester) Hairstyle Of The Gods IPA 6.7%

    Settled on some more of the St. Ambroise Double IPA (8%) I've mentioned above. A very nice drink.

    Today's offerings have a decidedly military theme. IMG20230318120525.jpg

    I saved the Victory Ale for last in the vain hope I'd have something to toast.

    I was going to say you'll need them all after that match...

    I can't even drown my sorrows now as I have to go to the bigger city down the road and impersonate a guitarist for a few hours. But there'll be a choice of stuff awaiting my return: Guinness, Ottakringer, that Nicaraguan lager is still here...
