Oh, Annap, I wish!!!!!!!I'm really envious about your gathering as well!!. The beer solution is OK, but I'm not very good with alcohol. And have you any idea what air conditioning costs over here!!, specially when you only need it for two weeks every four years!!! Any more ideas. Oh yes, the coast is only 30 miles away, but on a Friday evening, the entire population of Birmingham and the West Midlands is heading that way, and travel nose to tail all the way......we don't go out of the town on Fridays, we can't!!!!!! Bron..hot and sweaty, but smiling now.
