Your festival sounds great JY. And the possibility that its a barrel of Cotswold Royal is too much to bear - what were those times andy?

it has nothing to do with the Armistice day, it's just because it's the best period to do it and also the 11th is a day off and can do a bigger week end some year :)

i'll send pics of it 8)
