Bottomless Brunch In Brum’s Epic Horror Bar.
I’d been looking into Gillingham (a) but the coach I was considering was full and the trains were £80 which I couldn’t really justify in the same week I’d used them to go to Scotland and London. Literally seconds after I closed the Trainline tab I got a message from Sean. Last year he asked…
Vine Street To Whitechapel And Solo In Soho.
A week last Tuesday I headed to London again for more Monopoly board visits.In Walsall McDonald’s my order was my lucky number 44. I knew it was going to be a good day. As it was the school holidays, the train had a few kids on it so plenty of shrieking and wailing. It was…
A Stakeout Of The Lockside Steakhouse.
Asps rang me last week to mention that he was taking Josh’s wife Lyndsey out to Lockside Steakhouse in Stourbridge while he was away and did I want to join them. As I’d reviewed The Lockside Cafes in the old BHS and the Saddlers Centre in Walsall while they were open, I jumped at this…
Spice Up Your Life In Walsall Volume 2.
Following the success of volume 1 – detailed here, I felt I needed to get back out there and do more curry. Tough job yeah, but somebody’s got to do it. Kiran’s Balti – 7 Church Street, Darlaston, WS10 8DU. Reviewed 11/05/26. I’d been on a mission in Darlaston, had an hour or so to…
Toby’s Joke Binge At The Edinburgh Fringe.
Toby Tarrant is one of my radio heroes. Mid May he appeared on Chris Moyles’s Radio X show with an announcement. First claiming that he was leaving the station to be the new James Bond. I’ve only ever seen one Bond film – A View To A Kill, but I’d have used my Light Cinema…
A Beautiful Day In Beautiful Bewdley
We visited Bewdley regularly as kids. My parents had a static caravan there and weekend stays were regular. However, as soon as I was old enough to stay at home on my own, that was it. I never went back to the caravan. Eventually my parents gave it up. After a couple of family tragedies…
A Much Needed Trip To Brum Pubs And Needless Alley.
Early start last Saturday. Missions like Mozzas and the bank to start the day. Absolutely none of my business I appreciate but a guy in Mozzas spent £50 on the £5 Millionaire Maker scratchcards. You should only gamble what you can afford to lose and if he can afford to lose £50 then good luck…
Blog 200. Lost Pubs, Discovered & Re-ticked Ones In Birmingham.
Last Saturday started in standard fashion. Up at 6, make mossiv mug of tea then back to bed to listen to Tony Blackburn’s Sounds Of The 60s on Radio 2. The 7am listener request was Rainbow Valley by Love Affair. I knew at this point that a class day was incoming. Villa Chris had been…
London Calling, Again.
I’m enjoying the football free Saturdays. Unthinkable just a few years ago. I looked at all those Saturdays and thought ‘yeah. Let’s get some more Monopoly board properties ticked off.’ So I picked the first Saturday of June thinking the weather would be glorious. Facebook has now clocked onto my love of the London Monopoly…
A Couple Of Platinum Hours With Chris Moyles.
About a month ago, Mel from Katz shared a post saying that Chris Moyles was doing a “Daytime Disco” at a club in Birmingham. I wanted in. Anyone who knows me will testify that I don’t do television, I’m a radio geek and Moyles is one of my heroes. I’ve got (and read) both of…
