Sigh!

For the last hour or so i have been trying to get onto LJ without much success. Seems to be another downtime problem. No wonder it is losing people like a dripping water tap. Sigh!

Eggheads

Wet and windy this morning. The weather i mean , stop snigering in the background!  But there is some bright slies in one direcction , and i reckon it will be a day of mostly sunshine and some showers. Off to Eastbourne anyway for the beer festival.to see my brother and drink some foaming ale.

Last night caught up with the week's current edition of Eghheads. There is a new lass on the team called Lisa. She apparently first appeared on an edition of The Weakest Link 13 years ago. I then watched Mastermind and halfway into i fell asleep. So anoher programme to watch on catch-up.

A Drinking Morning

Have not done a music post foe  awhile , so here is one which might be appropiate for the day ahead.

John Lee Hooker and the track One Bourbon One Scotch One Beer.

Enjoy.

Eastbourne Beer Festival 2014

Great day at the Eastbourne Beer Festival with my brother. The food, a delicious Cornish pastie was just the ticket, and the music by Wakin' Snakes was just brilliant, especially if you like bluegrass and folk music.

Had a bit of a long kip when i got back to Seaford and woke up just in time to watch Dr. Who.

In this first post i shall list the  beers and tomorrow i will post the pics of the Morris men.

Meanwhile a lovely photo of a Harveys Brewery dray horse.



Here is my brother coming42 trying to decide what to drink next, and looking rather intellectual.




Here is that blugrass band getting everybody's feet tapping.



So these are the ales that i drunk -

Abbeydale Black Mass (7.0 % ABV)
Boggarts Rum Porter (4.6 % ABV)
