In an effort to outstay my welcome even further - here's yet another four entries from Volume 3 my 'Beatles Film Posters Series'. There's now 63 entries. You can see them all, and also buy prints, over in my shop.

One last post about The Beatles Film Poster Series and then I’ll shut up, I promise. Here’s a little video showing all 63 entries across Volumes 1, 2 and 3!
The coffee version is probably the better of the 2 (more pronounced stout and chocolate flavours) , though it's a bit too coffee for my taste.. #beer #beersky

Imagine having a hall like this all to yourself for half an hour or so! There were others in the museum but no one came in here. The large painting opposite is Lady Godiva (oil on canvas, 1890) by Jules Lefebvre. Peeping Tom (a tailor in the standard legend) is shown here as the baker #art
Presumably "Strong-Waters" here means #whiskey and other spirits?
The Public Domain Review@publicdomainrev.bsky.social · 3d agoHappy #InternationalChocolateDay! Celebrate with a bar or 4 and a read of our essay "When Chocolate was Medicine", all about how when chocolate first arrived from the Americas into Europe in the 17th century it was seen as more of a drug than as a food: publicdomainreview.org/essay/w...
And don't the @kernelbrewery.bsky.social bottles fit my panorama colour scheme rather well? #beer #beersky
Dave@vip-223.bsky.social · 10mo agoBoeschepe Bier brewed by van Eecke (one of the Leroy breweries: think Poperinges Hommelbier or Kapittel) which fits rather well in front of my Flemish panorama from the mont de Kemmel. Boeschepe village is unmarked but just on the other side of le mont Noir as seen from here #beer #beersky #bier
Despite a bagful of books, I did manage to bring home a couple of @kernelbrewery.bsky.social bottles too. This is the Export India Porter, bottled at 5.3% (the one I had last week on draft was at 5.8%). Very dark & roasty. The smaller Double India is the Export "turned up to 11". #beer #beersky
Dave@vip-223.bsky.social · last wk.When in London, a visit to the @kernelbrewery.bsky.social Spa Road is obligatory. Here are the Export India Porter, the Dunkel, and the Oud Bruin. All 3 are perfect, hitting the respective regional spot. Cheers! #beer #beersky

Stout! Damsons! What's not to like here? @kernelbrewery.bsky.social 's Export Stout is based on an 1890 Truman's Brewery recipe. The fruited version you see poured here was aged 6 months with 200g/l of whole English damsons #beer #beersky
Hanna-Barbera’s animated series “Hong Kong Phooey” (whose title character was voiced by Scatman Crothers, who also sang the program’s theme song) premiered on September 7, 1974.
Picked up a couple of vintage @penguinbooksuk.bsky.social paperbacks on the Portobello Rd on Sat. Osbert Lancaster was a cartoonist in the @dailyexpressnews.bsky.social, this volume was published in 1945 hence contains many war-themed gags. I present the 1 #beer themed cartoon too #booksky

Well what a blast! I haven't sung so much in ages. Michael Shannon, @jasonnarducy.bsky.social and friends celebrated R.E.M.'s Life's Rich Pageant in its 40th year, though they didn't stop there & ripped us through R.E.M.'s whole career too. #music #musicphotography
Oddly, my copy of Death of a Naturalist was misbound, it starts on page 31, runs to the end then starts again at 1... #booksky #book #SeamusHeaney
Dave@vip-223.bsky.social · 3w agoI had a go at this, I'm happy with the result at least to a certain degree.. Any ideas of which Seamus Heaney poem I used here? #poetry
I grew up believing that you shouldn't kill a money spider. I avoided squashing them, gently took them outside. Still waiting for the money. Still, it seems like a decent idea, so I have told my daughter the same.
Julie Shiel@forgottenbeauty.bsky.social · 2w agoIn Ireland, Damhán ealla are small spiders that float through the air in the Autumn. Whoever they land on will get a new article of clothing, so the spiders are not to be interfered with. redbubble.com/shop/ap/3544... #Folklore #WyrdWednesday #art #vintage #illustration #fairytale #mythology
Currently watching VfL Osnabrück of the 2. Bundesliga beating FC Bayern München in the German cup 1st round. Don't suppose it will finish 1-0 but French TV are loving replaying the goal every 30 seconds.. #football
