@fesshole Is this a @porksmith fess from about 15 years ago? 🤔

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@fesshole Pub landlord here. Likelihood is it’s us, or one of our staff team you’re doing the favour for. Thanks Fesser, you’re one of the good ones!

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@PaddyM04882466 @fesshole That’s weird, I did too. I think it’s the ‘mate’ at the beginning of sentence 2

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@MrJamesMay I sell these in my pub. Customers regularly refer to them as ‘Cheese Crack’ and I definitly have used the old ‘first pack free’ selling model.

Once they’re hooked, the reeling in is easy.

@baddantakes
🎶Learn to work the saxophone
I, I play just what I feel
Drink Scotch whiskey all night long
And die behind the wheel
They got a name for the winners in the world
I want a name when I lose
They call Alabama the Crimson Tide
Call me…🎶

@anon_opin Nah. The Scarecrows’ Wedding is JD’s finest work. In standard English. But The Gruffalo in Scotts, that’s a thing of literary perfection!

@Ginger_Tucci @AnExpatWife Mine is just algorithm anomalies. For some reason, twitter thinks I really really really like the footballs (I’ve never been into football)

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@5tuuuu @anon_opin Bit strong! You do realise that nonce and ponce aren’t interchangeable insults right?

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@Pragjag @anon_opin Cloudy and sour really is nothing new. 15ish thousand years of brewing history. Only the last century and a half or so have beers been almost exclusively clear and not sour.

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@anon_opin Craft bar owner here. Mostly it’s 440ml cans these days. Has been for yonks. Only the supermarket sell out brands do them in 330s. Want good craft? Stick with the indies.

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@chetanv82 That’s awesome mate!!

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@Ginger_Tucci Immaculate bit of telly that episode! 😘👌

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@Ginger_Tucci You clearly know your onions! My absolute favourite!

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@PSB_HQ @TomSleepInertia I know you’re mainly a kit player, got anything up your sleeves?

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@PSB_HQ @terl_music where are you based these days? Or Martin Neil? He gets about a bit though, but was London based last time we spoke. He has sooooo many drums!!! 😳

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@PSB_HQ Yeah they’re awful. Most stuff with a stagg badge on it is :/ no joy from Wembley drum centre? @drumwembley gonna be honest though, not every plastic head is ‘bad’ the meinl ones ive played were ace! They had regular plastic heads

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@PSB_HQ Also, in 20 years of working in a drum shop and doing perc workshops, I’ve never seen a trad goat/calf skin doumbek or darbouka. Only ever plastic or Remo fiberskin type things :/ hope you find one x

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@PSB_HQ Have you tried reaching out into the Turkish/Middle Eastern/N-african perc community? I just did a google and came up with these guys. Worth a shout? https://t.co/lBu4Z93HWZ

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

Don’t think much to the new prodigy merchandise

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@BeardedGenius Obviously I meant *pub landlord 🤦‍♂️

[Jamie Stapleton @JayStapleton]

@BeardedGenius Hi. Pup landlord here. Occasionally we see this done with a bag of crisps, AND a packet of peanuts, AND a bag of pork scratchings. We call this ‘pub tapas’.
