Pulling a pint of draught Guinness was quite the thing to learn as a novice bartender.

I was relaxing after a few days travelling north to Liverpool for a funeral - bittersweet, as these events often are - with a glass of white wine and catching up with podcasts. A friend recommended Cahokia Jazz, but I've not got into it yet. The auld one is fine, out in Portobello Market selling bric a brac and trying to offload the books I've said I don't want any more. It's a fine day for it.
