    Radio 4 tomorrow (Monday 14th) at 15:30 - The Food Programme; subject is The Great British Hop. Possibly a repeat, as it's currently available to listen to. Anyway, seems to be about the decline of hop farming, as far as I can tell.

    So do I! As someone who despises Footbore and all the attendant Sky TV and other TV coverage, sponsorship and the hysterical Press Media, fondly remembers going to watch the second half of a York V Hartlepool game after the mandatory 15:00 closing time in those days.

    I've no idea what the result was as the highlight was seeing a young lad being dragged out by the Old Bill!

    Some of the iron hoops holding the massive vats were > 2 tons each iirc, and breweries vied for the biggest vats, one holding a dinner dance for 100(?) people inside one (before use...).
    One shouldn't make light of folk drowning in beer but, hey, you've got to go somehow..!
