Cambridge Real Ale Festival

Last night I found myself drawn by the smell of yeast and beards to Cambridge where I found a charming ale festival in full swing. And who did I bump into but Nottingham’s very own Mathematics post grad. Dan had made the trip down to his old haunts in order to sample such delightful ales including ‘Double Momentum’, ‘Transforming Tomorrow’, ‘Golden Shower’, ‘Old Stoatwobbler’, ‘Trip Hazard’, ‘Yule Fuel’ and ‘Granny Wouldn’t Like It’. Dan it would seem has done magnificently for himself rounding up his post grad thesis in the coming weeks and with a place secured on a post doc although he is slightly concerned that this is a bit too much like a real job as he will be forced to pay taxes! In any event that is avoiding the major news which is that Dan is now engaged! The date is due to be set shortly with venues being scouted out. He seemed less than impressed with my suggestion of The Victoria but there is still time for him to come round. All toasts will be done not with the conventional champagne rather with something all together my aley and delicious.

Now to get back to nursing my hangover. Over and out.

Some things I heard...

Exciting news gang, I just started up my own investment company ‘Sleazy Tiger’s Investments’. We mainly deal in the transportation and distribution of goods from Eastern Europe, free samples will be sent to you all soon. Please treat them nicely (Joe I am looking at you)

This Tiger has heard that a young juggler/spinner/actor/DJ/all round nice guy is doing rather well for himself north of the boarder. An interview today for some sort of marketing managerial position. Additionally he is going in for some acting roles and attempting to launch a fire spinning business. Good luck to him! ‘Fingers in pies’ as he said.

Speaking of fingers in pies a certain ex-estate agent turned creative numbers man met a lovely young lady although upon the revelation that she is 15 and from Essex swiftly removed his finger from said pie and passed her details on to the Head Librarian in my library of sleaze. No doubt she will be catalogued and dealt with appropriately.

The sad (but delicious) news I am forced to share with you is that you are all invited to the funeral/dinner party of poor Stew. A certain law student picked him up, loved him for a while and has since got bored discarding him like a piece of meat. Webmonkey – you have been warned…

That only leaves me to say a very happy birthday to Nainesh, I do hope I put enough air holes in the present I sent you otherwise you could be receiving three dead hookers. When you are done with them I tattooed on a return address so just pop them in the post, thanks.
