Perhaps Trinity regulars could help identify this weird creature that was climbing the toilet wall. It was about an inch and a half long and weird enough for me to take a photo of it it. I looked away for a second and then - du du du duuu - it was gone, just like in a scene from a horror movie.

I had a good check to make sure it hadn't decided to nest in my barnet but it was nowhere to be found. But what the hell was it?

I think it was quimmy who said on Saturday that during the riots it had to bar all the doors and windows cuz it was known to be quite the no blacks no dogs no Irish kinda place. Not saying it's like that at all today, but IME it's always been a bit of an outlier on the Brixton scene.

Not me.
 
Hopefully our next round of Brixton Buzz Beers (which look like finally being sorted after a frustrating tax snag) will be available soon and should raise a far bigger amount of cash. It's unfortunate that so few Brixton businesses aren't supporting this. Shameful, in fact, IMO.

We've been asked to add the Brixton Buzz logo to that which is a bit of a honour as far as I'm concerned. It's a wonderful project.

Hopefully we'll be getting the next batch out within three weeks. It's been a real pain in the arse. The Beer Lab had immense difficulty organising their affairs with the tax people and there was a painful stalemate going on. Thankfully, that seems to be in the process of being resolved.

The Brixton Beer Co had initially offered to help us with production so we asked them for help, but it turned out that they were too busy.

Given that we're starting small (and we'll have to manually lug the bottles around town ourselves) we're going with a limited number of local suppliers for the next batch, but if all goes well, we'll ramp up production substantially and get more stockists - and hopefully raise a ton of cash for the Soup Kitchen and other local causes.

I have to say that I *loved* the Coldharbour Courage beer and are quite craving more!

it's a good thing it's all moving forwards because it would be a dreadful admission that you couldn't organise a piss-up despite having a brewery :p
