Just walked past the Herne Tavern and saw a ginormous inflatable marquee, what's that? i asked:

'A real ale festival with over 20 beers from around the country' they answered...


I didn't know there were 20 people that still drunk bitter anymore?!... but it seems like they are set for a busy weekend


Just wondered if anybody else knew about it and how many people will be heading down there?!


See you all there


Mrs Y

Well we went down there last night about quarter to ten - to find the beer tent all closed up :'(


Told because the garden closed at eleven, the beer tent had closed at nine !?!??!?!


Not happy. Poster outside Palmerston just said dates, nothing about closing at nine ...


Went to CPT to drown sorrows in a pint of Broadside ... Broadside was off ...


Not a great Friday night :'(


But hey, Dulwich Ukelele Orchestra were great at the Plough tonight :)-D

Well, I have every sympathy with somebody being unhappy about the noise, but there's two points.


First, the poster in the Palmerston window should have stated the 9pm closing time, then we would have got to the Herne earlier. The closing time was only on the leaflets - which we hadn't seen.


Second, we were told we could get beer at the bar and bring it into the garden - so, I'm not too sure what the difference is between that and buying it from a tent in the garden in terms of noise?

    • Thanks P. That sounds like a bargain compared to other horror stories I've heard! 
    • DD, "Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃" At least the economy and unemployment weren't in the mess they are now. What is it, give the public sector a whopping pay increase with no strings attached, double the black hole and then blame it on the last Govt. Give me strength. Rachel from accounts shouldn't be anywhere near the economy. The final straw was increasing employer NI contributions and look how that's worked out. Month on month both inflation and unemployment have risen. Won't be long before inflation and u/e are exceeding 5%, but guess what, They'll blame Sunak and go.  Lets have a snap election right NOW, then see how poorly Starmer, Reeves and Rainer do. They're already plotting to get rid of Starmer, and if you think its bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet. Oh and did I mention Starmer wanting to stop Freedom of Speech............................................Normal people can see right through what him and co are doing, great at spending other peoples money, him and co don't have = bankruptcy. We'll just repeat the economic collapse that happened in Greece and wasn't it in Italy as well?
    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?  
    • @Sue think this is your quote.  It wasn't binary, good Vs bad, and Corbyn had a lot of popular support, as evidenced by the previous election. He had aot of good policies, some picked up by others since. He was defeated by a mixture of a right wing press,good targeting the Johnson 'Get Brexit Done" and for some that Johnson was a funny loveable rogue/fool/liar/philander/opportunist.  I wouldn't see choosing the perceived least worst candidate out of the two major parties as being "good sense'.  We imagine that Corbyn would have been terrible, but we don't know.  He would have taken a stronger line against Israel in Gaza, not sucked up to Trump nut on Russia?  Would the UK be better for that?
