The next Lower Stoke folking drinkup is on SATURDAY the 23rd July. The Ship, Lower Stoke, Near Rochester Kent (clickymap to follow). It might run on fairly late. Start about 8 or 8.30pm.

For those who wish not to drive home I live next door to the pub and have 5 bedrooms, 2 sofas (one long one short) and lots of floor, a caravan (twin bed or double) a summerhouse (with spiders) a lawn and some tents sleeping bags inflatable beds and a camp bed.

I also have an elderly great dane bitch, a middle-aged border collie cross neutered dog, and a fairly aged burmese cross cat. They have their own beds but are likely to sniff at guests. The dogs will bark (which is particularly annoying with a hangover), but have not bitten any people yet. The cat sometimes decides to sit on people in the night, but not often.

I have some drive space for campervanners (well, one) and there is the road for others. There is a car park opposite the pub but vans will not get under the barrier.
