I turned 29 today. I'd like to say I've hung on to youthful good looks, but I'm not sure I ever had them: I stopped getting ID'd when I was 15.
Tomorrow morning, me and five of the lads are flying to Rome to go on the smash with our pals there. After two nights boozing it up in the Italian capital, two of us will be travelling northwards, through Umbria, Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna and Lombardy. We'll reach Milan in a week's time, where we'll be hitting Birrifico Lambrate. While I'm away, expect the odd blog post to pop up. There are a few on the backburner. Be good.
Yes, I suppose it should be Norwich. After all, that's what you voted for. Well, rest assured we haven't forgotten that sacred pledge. We'll make good our promise soon (just not yet).
Never trust people who think beer subdivides into "lager", "bitter" and "Guinness".
Never trust people who say they like chain bars because "they always know what they're getting".
Never trust people who list "socialising" as an interest on their CV.
Never trust people who can't give a straightforward answer when you ask them where they're from.
Never trust people who invite you on skiing trips when you have never expressed any interest in the sport (or indeed their company).
Never trust blokes who try and ban the c-word from conversation because their bird doesn't like it (just say it more).
Never trust people who "don't like to lose control".
Finally and most importantly, never, ever trust people who don't drink beer, unless they have a very good excuse - and for the avoidance of doubt, being an uptight, miserable sod is not a very good excuse.

I'm particularly looking forward to hearing about Doc Gibbles cock and balls.
