The Friday beer and music thread

[WeeGord]

Evening folks, hope we're all looking forward to the weekend. January is always a miserable, depressing month with Christmas and New Year having been and gone. The nights are dark and cold and the TV is worse than usual.

It's not all bad though. We're going full speed ahead under Michael Carrick and the difference between this and the previous regime is night and day. Fingers crossed we have a fantastic 2023.

I'm being alcohol free this evening as had a canny drink on New Years Day and still don't have the fancy for a beer so have been tucking into some lemon and honey hot drinks, the true Rock n Roll lifestyle!

Anyhow, here's a better from the 80s to kick us off folks...

Evening folks, hope we're all looking forward to the weekend. January is always a miserable, depressing joyous month with Christmas and New Year and the once-a-year lot having been and gone.

Sorted. To the pub to see what they have on. Meantime, here's Pere Ubu featuring Debbie Harry and a stupendous mullet.

What with the weather and first week back at work this has been one of the most depressing weeks in a while after all the festivities. However I can’t grumble!

Will have a beer in a bit probably a Budweiser as still have a lot of that left..

Happy New Year!

Slaving away on a writing job tonight but will allow myself a wee glass of red. And seeing as the work is about Northumberland, we'll have a bit of this from a couple of mates ...

7UP for me. Dry January already busted but having a night off tonight while listening to The Wake.
I've got some 0% Guinness so I might try one later once they've chilled in the fridge.

OK, so not wanting to be braggy but am out in the canaries as we often are. Weather is unusually fantastic so went out for breakfast today (11.00 ish) and bumped into one couple after another so ended up home at 8.30 pm.

Mostly local white wine
