Hiya All,
We can confirm the beer will be wet. The Boat Museum Society do a run up to Chester and bring barrels of real ale back. They are there in strength at Eastter with narrow boats and some interesting competitions!!!!! Tug o war acrosss the canal locks, suggest we put together a shanty team and decide what long haul shanty to use while we're tugging.
We'l mention to them that they might need an extra barrel or two........
There are a couple of bars at the museum and we're talking to the site manager about preferences for proper beer. No reason why people can't bring their own and there are local hostelries that purvay the amber nectar............
And I thought it was all going to be about the music.
Cheers and Bottoms Up (referring of course to your glasses)
