No Sheep 'til Buxton!
My latest bevvy/football combo weekend was in the spa town of Buxton in Derbyshire. A leisurely Saturday night out involved 9 pubs, included 2 GBG's(total 580) and a 'Spoons(total 381) plus England's oldest hotel.

Happy Valley
My last visit into the Happy Valley was a miserable one, spending 20 hours in our hotel room suffering from violent sickness (from both ends) Thankfully I was a clean bill of health this time, as the breadknife and I enjoyed an pleasant afternoon in Sowerby followed by a good night out in Halifax.

Slaves @Academy
Slaves
Newcastle Academy
Wednesday 7th November 2018
This was the second time I've seen Slaves live and just like the first time, I felt like I was the oldest swinger in town with the venue full of young lasses. I'm still totally baffled how a 21st century punk outfit can have a core fan base of teenage girls. (It must be Issac's fine physique) Great gig though!
