Jon has already decided that he's sharing it so it should be really cosy under there!!! Last night at around midnight we realised that we had not seen Isolde of the White Paws for a long time, so thinking I had shut her in the garage went on a hunt for her. No Isolde! panic sets in... had she curled up in the builders van... It was at that moment that inspiration hit me. She had been 'helping' pack the van for Wareham. There she was curled up fast asleep ready in the camper to come to Wareham with us this morning. It must be that she has heard so much about it that she wanted to come too. |

Also all the people behind the scenes, in the kitchen, task force, those running the sings, behind the bar.. me for bringing the cream safely from Cornwall!!! The beer was execellent and I appreciated the discussion with Russ re the porter. It has excellent potential. He just has to bring his final brew for me to try in Cornwall before it goes on sale. The only sad thing about the Wail, for me, is that it signals the end of the summer. |

Big, big thank yous to all who helped to make this such a wonderful weekend. Here's to next year!

I would bid on your gloves but I'd be worried they might expect me to use them next year and I don't love washing up that much!

Alan please do not stop running this weekend. Thanks one and all. Allan. |
