Travels With Nate

Yesterday I went to The Great British Beer Festival . Originally, I wasn’t going to go but a friend from twitter offered me two tickets to the Trade Session so I thought it would be rude not to go. It would give me the chance to put a face to all of these 140 character personalities. So I did it. I embarked on a 3 hour coach journey from Norwich and met my mate Tom. Was it worth it? Oh hell yeah it was.

And it's not the Olympics. In fact, I figure that the amount of alcohol in my system by the time I leave at 7 o'clock tonight will render me unfit to partake in any sport. Hell, I will probably have trouble getting back to Victoria. It's the Great British Beer Festival and it's on all week until Saturday at The Olympia in London. Today is the Trade Session and I will be there between 12pm & 7pm (it opens to the public at 5pm) I will be wearing a Carling polo shirt. OMG THE IRONY LOLZ. No, fuck off. But seriously, if you see me, you should come over for a cuddle or a high five or something. If not, I hate you and you should go cry somewhere. Have fun and I hope to see you all there. I love you.

Image taken from here: http://gbbf.org.uk/ I went to The Great British BeerFestival last year (2011), all alone because I have no friends. It’s hardly surprising, is it? I am joking; of course, I have lots of friends but none who like beer so much that they’ll travel 120 miles to drink it. Even though I went alone, I had a bloody good day out. I drank some wonderful beers (don’t ask me which although I was wearing my Dark Star ‘Don’t Drink Hophead’ t-shirt that I won through a twitter campaign but I drank Hophead anyway, being the rebel that I am) and met some awesome new people who I’m still in contact with through the wonderful world of twitter. I also got to show off my awesome shoes that @BeeryMatt loved a lot (I may have to break them out for this year’s affair, actually).
