Hello old friend.

Schnoodlepip.

That is all.

Last one from @offbeat_brewery. The signing-out beer from @MichelleShipm4n. #RealAle #camra

Big shout out to our @BBBCrewe sponsors and their nominated charities. May your beer be drunk first! @OthertonAleman your charity @RNLI are linked up with @SteamMachineIPA and Peach Haze IPA

Waiting for someone who means everything...

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@jamesbwxm @tabamatu 1.1 blood sugars, possibly a new record I think. Fantastic service from the guys who came out. Time now though to await being in a heap of trouble in the morning for calling an ambulance :)

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

For the 3rd time in 3 years I've had to call on @NWAmbulance (not for myself, but certainly for a genuine emergency), most recently in the early hours of this boxing day. Each time is a reminder of what an absolutely amazing bunch of people we rely on when we most need help.

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@tabamatu @jamesbwxm on the mend. Will all be fine again soon. To be fair in 22 months of marriage I've only had to make three emergency calls but it soon makes you realise what absolute stars they are, unsung heroes.

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@jamesbwxm usual shit with a diabetic in the house.

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

Nothing quite rounds off your Christmas Day like waiting for an ambulance...

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@wildcattap far more eloquent than the frustrated throwaway that inspired it. And for what it's (cont) https://t.co/bcQJXtau2V

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@midlandsbeerbc its nice to see the cage has been rattled, shame passion isn't more widespread. Doesn't change my poor experience yesterday

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@FulltotheBrum different perspectives I guess. Still feels (to me) as in need of improvement as it did five+ years ago though.

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@FulltotheBrum to be fair I've done more than my share of pushing forward.

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@FulltotheBrum fair enough, you're entitled to your own view.

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@FulltotheBrum small improvement from a low baseline to start from. Still miles behind where a city on this scale ought to be.

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@BeerNouveau it ought to be, and it often seems to think it is, but it sure as hell isn't!

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

An afternoon / evening drinking in Birmingham only serves to remind what a dire place it is for beer... At least the company is good :)

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@BeerFinderGen SOL? I've been 40 a while and not heard it But I sigh out loud every day I walk into the office, it isn't worthy of a TLA...

[David Shipman @OthertonAleman]

@BeerFinderGen Lols. Well, if I believed in such things as Lols. I'm not of that generation.
