Out with Ellie even though it was a bit drizzly. I believe I saw my first ever woodcock in the woods this morning. I am sure that is what it was. A bit further into the walk and we met Christine and her dog Murphy. She moved into the village about the same time as we did and we frequently see her dog walking. We all went round to look at Mal’s allotment and showed her which one it was so she can see the progress.
After lunch we went into Margate for the 10th Planet Thanet Beer Festival. All the time we were in Cyprus Mal kept on and on saying how he missed the beer festivals. 200 different Real Ales.Very appealing to Mal not for me as I wasn’t drinking I was driving. We met some really nice people who we sat with and the Jazz band that were playing were very good, Bert Butler and his Jazz Pilgrims.
And guess who else was there?……………

He was surrounded by press and a bodyguard the whole time he was there.
Mal was quite wobbly by the time we went home but he thoroughly enjoyed it. I think the last time we went was 2007. Now we are both CAMRA members once more, I guess there will be a lot more beer festivals. Rhys wanted to go but had to work. It was amusing people watching, so many that were convinced they were walking upright and in a straight line back to their seats! At least the bottled water was free for all the “designated drivers.”
