We're in Bruges! We have bought chocolate, we've eaten frites covered in carbonnade flamande, we've drunk beer and most importantly, we met @hungarianbear.bsky.social and @beerbear21.bsky.social! #SmallBearsNeedBeer

It's Saturday so we're at another beer festival - one of the best, Bier van Olier in Sisjele, just outside Brugge. Cheers! 🍻 🇧🇪
Three small bears drinking beer at a beer festival. The middle bear is quite small so he can only just reach his beer.

Full marks to the city of Lyon for not allowing a 17.6% gradient to get in the way of building a metro line up to Croix-Rousse. This is a downhill train arriving at Croix-Paquet station:

It’s time for a drink and there’s no chance of Mr Throckmorton and Hertog sharing with the humans as they say the label is quite clear… Beer from Brasserie la Binchoise, Binche, Belgium #smallBearsNeedBeer @beerbear21.bsky.social @millymammoth.bsky.social
Two small plush bears on a checked cloth with a brown bottle of beer, called ‘Bière des Ours’ - it’s a honey Belgian ale so there’s a play on words with ours (bear) and ours… the bears are looking pleased with themselves

Here is a gift link to Simon Schama's appreciation of David Hockney's life and art which we ran last year. It's an amazing piece and contains, as you might imagine, some spectacular pictures including an absolute corker of Hackney with Lucian Freud as.ft.com/r/f1473f70-0...

Making the trip worthwhile. Superb de dolle export stout on draft at Bruges Beertje. Coffee and roast notes with a slight tartness. Sublime. Easily one of Belgium's greatest beers. Worth risking the pub guard dog for

Yesterday, the Northern Line wasn’t running due to a signalling failure (we took a bus). Today, the train to Hastings has been cancelled due to unauthorised people on the tracks. We’re now departing from London Bridge instead of Charing Cross. We’ll get there eventually. #travellingbear

In Belgium, the train company had a slogan: "Travelling by train is always a bit of an adventure." That certainly applies to public transport in London and the UK. 1/2

The Duke of St Albans has sadly died. Wasn't aware there was one. He lived modestly but described Tony Blair's cancellation of his annual haunch of venison as a pretty poor show. His title via Charles II & Nell Gwynn bluntly described by the Telegraph as orange seller & strumpet. (!!!)

The human had an hour of eye scans today, &was told she would now need 3 bouts of laser surgery on left eye in addition to continuing 8 weekly injections on right eye. All due to complications of type 1 diabetes. Staff are fantastic, treatment is necessary, but it all gets a bit draining sometimes.

Final stop on way home today was CAP-Musée des Beaux-Arts, Mons for the Hockney exhibition. Really remarkable to see so many Hockney classics in a location like this - very impressed with the gallery & its curation. Alongside Hockney there were several by the likes of Van Gogh & Munch.

Sublime sunrise over the Brugge-Gent canal, 9.10am this morning.
The sun is behind some trees and has just risen above a canal. Both are reflected in the water in the foreground. The sky is mostly blue with just a few clouds which are turning pink with the sun's glow.
