    One of the great joys of my yearly conference trip to Brussels @Obelixx

    Only two more weeks till a new Hobbycraft store opens in Exeter. Can’t wait, our nearest store was on the outskirts of Bristol, so only visited if we were in the area. Now I will be able to drop in frequently and browse. 
    Oh really - where's it going to be?

    Some of them are really nice @punkdoc - the glasses, not the beer.  Don't like beer - but some designs are just boring or ugly and what is that Kwak thing about?

    The new Hobbycraft is on the retail park just by the big Tesco, off Junction 30, M5. Had a look through the door yesterday, (had to go to Halfords next door) and it looks like there is a bit to do. Interior looks finished but no shelves or stock going in as yet. I’ll be looking for some fabric paints. The Dyson ones I use seem to have been discontinued. A shame, as they came in nice colours, and once ‘fixed’, washed very well. Hope there will be some good alternatives available.

    Yes.  We have one of those plus several kinds of Hoegaarden, our local Gembloux beer (well it was local then), Westmalle, Leffe, Chimay, Duvel..............

    For a few years I was in Brussels almost every month. A favourite pub had a great menu with lots of offal and an amazing vintage beer list to accompany the food.
