Sounds great. Are you doing your usual menu on the Sunday, or just the barbeque?

"Chef Tony" and I would like to thank all of you who visited us over the weekend and helped make our first Beer Festival a resounding success. There was only a small amountof "Nicks" remaining last night so Dobbin anticipated the right amount of beers. We are both "cream crackered" (don't want to be sensored) but are convinced that this could now be an annual event. We would also like to thank our staff who worked their socks off over the three days but enjoyed every minute. Our final thank you goes to Nigel at the White Horse for the loan of the racking for the cellar. It was very much appreciated. Linda
