Sleeping on the rails part 3 – in Russia with love
Published on 16 April 2009 in Transport, Travel and Holidays, railways, Russia, sleeper trains, trains
Prior to this year, I'd only ever taken one journey on a sleeper train. It was 2003 and we were in St Petersburg visiting my sister, and she decided we should go to Moscow for the day to see the sights. Lenin's Tomb, Red Square and so on. We'd arrive on the sleeper, spend the day there and arrive back in St Petersburg the following morning.
Baltika and the state of beer in the UK
Published on 28 July 2003 in Beer, beer, Russia
Russian beer Baltika is coming to the UK. But out of the 10 possible versions of the stuff, it's not the rather nice brown ale, the wheat beer or the divine porter. Nope. It's the rather naff lager that will soon be hitting the bars of London. Yet another wasted oppertunity...

I'm going to Russia. And my passport won't be stamped. Boo!
