Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Day five of another fabulous Test Match with England vs India. Five day test matches are still my preferred format, and the last three games have been so close. I’m meant to be getting some things done around the house, but coffee and a cigar seemed like a better option 0110
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 12/07/2025It’s been a slow Saturday; Made bread, listened to the Lions game, drank coffee, had a long leisurely cigar while the bread baked, and listened to the cricket all afternoon with some cold tinnies. There’s a refreshing breeze coming through now too. How are we all? 2150
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 02/07/2025Hola amigos! There’s a little drizzle in the air over deepest mid Bedfordshire this morning, and I’ve just caught that smell of petrichor.. How are we all? 250
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 30/06/2025I’ve retired to the garden, with a pint and a stick 💨 All is well in this little corner of deepest mid Bedfordshire 180
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 30/06/2025It got a tad toasty in my office this afternoon… 150
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Boom! 💥 Not the best idea baking on the hottest day of the year, but these smell divine! …and I have Brie… 280
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Listening to a few Glastonbury sets this morning. Alanis Morissette, and Pulp. Both excellent 👌 1100
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 29/06/2025So far so good…. Time to divide and shape up 👨🍳 040
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Good morning, and happy Sunday you lovely lot. The littlest bakery in deepest mid Bedfordshire is up, but Ethelbread is still fast asleep… Sun-dried tomato, olive, and Rosemary bread today, if I can remember how to do that 👨🍳 150
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 10/05/2025Way back in the late 80s I used to go to a Blues Club in Hampshire; The Boar’s Head out near Wickham way. Saw some amazing old bands, alongside some new and local groups. Much beer, and a smoky hash haze… #GoodTimes 160
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 10/05/2025Saturday evening blues with Johnnie Winter and a hauf an’ a hauf… Big fan of what Richard is doing at @retributiondist.bsky.social and love these bottles he has chosen 0110
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 10/05/2025Good morning you lovely lot! It’s been a while. How are we all? 480

Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 09/03/2025Making the most of this warm sunny Sunday 💨 #BusyDoingNothing 0100
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 08/03/2025Celebrating an excellent afternoon of entertaining rugby with a beautiful drop of Glen Moray 21 Year Old Portwood. France were on fire in Dublin, and Wales put in a good show in Edinburgh. Slàinte! 🥃🥃 080
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 07/03/2025Good morning from a very bright and sunny deepest mid Bedfordshire! I’m London bound today with a (big) pocket full of rye. I’ll be in BB&R from midday, do drop by for a splash of Kyrö if you’re free 1181
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 01/03/2025Cocktails in front of the fire tonight. #Haufanahauf 0110
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 01/03/2025Another fine pair, although it wasn’t without a little kerfuffle. The bloody oven has packed up, so hopefully I can repair it next week. Otherwise, I’ll need a new one 😢 080
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 01/03/2025Good morning you lovely lot! It’s a mighty fine day for making bread. Was Ethelbread ready? 090
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 27/02/2025A pint of Worthington’s finest was drawn yesterday. Cask strength, natural colour, and non-chill filtered. Oh, and hand pricked too… Please sign up and donate if you can. Thank you x 1130
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 27/02/2025Good morning you lovely lot! Blue skies and sunshine over deepest mid Bedfordshire today 😃 A coffee and a cheeky cigar in the sunshine would be perfect, but I’ve got things to do… How are we all? 130

Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 25/02/2025Good morning friends. It was a very sad day, saying farewell to my cousin’s husband yesterday. Childhood sweethearts who first met at a church youth club when they were just 13. Diagnosed in September, cancer ripped through his body in a matter of months. He was just the nicest guy… 880
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 23/02/2025Good morning friends! Good Lord, this coffee is excellent! Sunday brunch incoming, and it’s a another perfect avocado too 🙌 #Winning 080
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 22/02/2025I’ve got to watch the Wales vs Ireland game now, as that was a great mix to listen to 010
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 22/02/2025I’m not sure the best team won today though. Scotland were superb, and played some excellent rugby while England sat back and watched at times. Three tries to one tells the real story, and if those conversions were taken, it’d be a clear Scotland victory 130
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 22/02/2025Two great games of rugby this afternoon. I decided not to watch the Welsh game, so just listened to the commentary while out walking. The England Vs Scotland was a nail biter all the way through. 140
Reposted by Dave Worthingtonwhiskyshorts.bsky.social @whiskyshorts.bsky.social · 19/02/2025Great tasting at Milk Bar in Reading with @boutiqueywhisky.bsky.social & @boutiqueydave.bsky.social tonight. Think the Peated highland & the 13 yo single grain were my favorites. But all really interesting and plenty to discover in their core range 1133
Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 16/02/2025Sunday brunch is the most important meal of the day, and made even better with a perfect avocado! More good news: it’s not raining in deepest mid Bedfordshire 🙌 Morning 👋 080

Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 07/02/2025Another delve into that back cupboard has yielded a 17 year old secret Orkney form WFFA. I think this was bottled in 2017 There’s a big hit of Parma Violets from this on the palate. 081

Dave Worthington @boutiqueydave.bsky.social · 31/01/2025Huzzah the tellybox still works 🙌 I don’t think it’s been plugged in since the last #6Nations tournament. Stade de France looking amazing too 🇫🇷 vs 🏴 180
