Fiesta day today. Unfortunately, the weather had turned
overnight and it was cloudy, windy and rather chilly - but dry, thank goodness.
Ian helped Chris, the owner,
set up tables and chairs outside under the marquee
At noon the sound man arrived
and set up his speakers, amplifiers, etc, and the music started. Soon people started arriving, the meat went onto the
and the beers were going down
a treat.
Astrid, an accordionist,
started playing at about 2 and didn't stop till 5 - standing the whole
time.
She was really good, great
personality and walked round to all the tables getting everyone involved.
A thoroughly enjoyable day.
As it got dark the stragglers
helped pack away the chairs, tables and sound system and we sat drinking in the
pub till 10.00. I finally found a beer
that I can drink - it's called Kriek and made from cherries, doesn't taste much
like beer at all.
