What's the beer in Richard ? If it's in a barrel, put an old towel over it and keep it nice and damp - the evaporation will keep the beer cool. Unfortunately the cardboard boxes that Polypins are usually in, tend to go soggy with the same treatment.

I hope my 15gals of beer (5gals each of Porter/Old, Best Bitter, and Amber Ale) clear nicely for the following weekend.

I put up the house name on the telegraph pole yesterday as well
You're not supposed to hang it from the wires, Richard !
