  Sure, but as they're riding from Birmingham, I'm sure one of these is worth a small detour: https://bathams.co.uk/pubs/

  I used to buy it by the case, from the outstanding Wine Stop in Selly Oak: whole wall of interesting beer.

  Look out for any pubs selling Bathams: exceptionally good pale ale that's only available locally.

  The people who brew it are very particular: they check it's being poured right, if not they won't sell it to you, so you're guaranteed a good pint.

  Just finished a stint on the viaduct out of Birmingham: expensive shit-show.

  Is this just ordinary self-amalgamating tape, or would that lack "Fiberglass reinforced construction"?
