Good beer, good wine, quality music, lovely wife, living in The North. What else is there?

@BrentPhilip @BrentAidan21 @giles_morrison @NewbarnsBrewery @KateBushMusic A really good beer. That album is, in my opinion, in the same superlative ballpark as Hounds of Love. I listen to ‘A Sky of Honey’ every midsummer’s day.

@Smiths_history @RoyalNottingham I was there, but on the balcony!

@BrentPhilip Sometimes a cask pint of @thornbridge Jaipur is too tempting to pass by!

[Marcus Brent @MarcusBrent1]

@BrentPhilip @BrentAidan21 @brewyorkbeer @ElusiveBrew You’re the man to find it!

[Marcus Brent @MarcusBrent1]

@BrentPhilip @BrentAidan21 A sneaky half on the way home, but what a half! Super Red, an 8.5% Red IPA collab @brewyorkbeer @ElusiveBrew . The best beer of its type I’ve tasted.

Cheers @BrentPhilip !

@BrentPhilip I’ve just seen that Benjamin Myers’ new book is a celebration of the 3-minute single. Sounds promising!

@BrentPhilip @giles_morrison @BrentAidan21 @ATJbeer Funnily enough I’ve just finished reading it! A lovely, relatable piece, as you say.

@BrentPhilip @BrentAidan21 The train is disappointingly booze-free this year! Maybe it’s an Ashes thing.

@BrentPhilip @BrentAidan21 Sat on a Hull Train en route to Edgbaston. On the buffet cart I spotted a Hull Trains x Atom collab called Locomotion (4.2% pale). 7.00 is a bit early, though…

@failtesheff Agreed. I suspect that some of them, and their donors, have done rather well out of this and other similarly wasteful initiatives!

@thenitinsawhney Your Royal Albert Hall gig around the same time was a highlight, and the late Jeff Beck performed ‘Nadia’. Keep up the great music and global political musings - kindness, love and understanding must prevail!

@BrentPhilip Just finishing my afternoon with my former Aviva colleagues with a (completely unnecessary!) third of Rye Whiskey BA Empress Tonkoko in the Brew York beer hall! I think you may have a can of that.

@Paulrhodes16 @KatherinePriddy @TheCrescentYork @GeorgeBoomsma @PleasePleaseYou A great night!

[Marcus Brent @MarcusBrent1]

@BrentAidan21 This is (most of) cask Jaipur!

[Marcus Brent @MarcusBrent1]

@BrentPhilip @candacebrent67 Indeed it has! Louise thought it might help her win at cards - mixed results on that!

[Marcus Brent @MarcusBrent1]

@BrentPhilip @candacebrent67 Thank you for this - I’m going in!

[Marcus Brent @MarcusBrent1]

@BrentAidan21 @BrentPhilip @TheFastShow1 Excellent picture!

[Marcus Brent @MarcusBrent1]

@BrentAidan21 @BrentPhilip I’m guessing Roosters beer may have been involved.
