"A choice of Beers, Wines and Ciders for the tasting"

Seems that CAMRA aren't taking their mission statement too seriously.

B

CAMRA have had a cider and perry arm for ages.

I think the 'wines' will be fruit wines, rather than poncy French stuff.

Oo-er.

The CAMRA site now has the details for the festival:

Ooh. Souvenir glasses.

Of course. Although I'm rapidly running out of space for beer festival glasses, depsite the dog's best attempts to smash them all.

Beer, beer, and some beer with beer. Will there be beer?

I wish I could be there with you all, but unfortunately it is still looking pretty unfeasible.

Is for me too... but I'm gona make a concerted effort to try and find some accomadation and get some folks mobile numbers and work out trains and find where I have to be and when... If only I was still an organised person hope you can make it

B&B: There's the Delter (yes, it is spelt like that) B&B round the corner (01283 535115).

Mobile number: I'll mail you.

Where you have to be: Get the train to BUrton like you did last time and one of us will pick you up from there.

Right, I'll ring that hotel/B&B tomorrow, see if they're got rooms, I seem to recall the planned meeting up time on the saturday was 1ish afternoon? would anyone be about Friday night if I came up late Friday afternoon in order to get there and book in the hotel etc to be ready for SAturday might be more wise than me trying to get a really early train on the sat well I'll see what they say about room availability and such like and if they don't mind me checking in like right at the end of the evening (would mean I could travel up on the sat and go straight to the without detouring at that point to the check in doobry anyone else planning on coming up on the Friday?

Phil's coming up on the Friday. The Delter is pretty relaxed, so I can't see a late check in being a problem.

Looking more like I'll just come up on the Saturday, I've a few things I oughta do here before I come up like doing some laundry and I'm awful at getting things done so I'll probalby have to do stuff like that on the Friday (when a suitable sense of urgency has developed ) quite a bit of choice on trains on the saturday a couple that get me into Burton betwewen 2 and 3 PM, if thats about right? must ring the B&B shortly

Yep, that's fine. Let me know if the Delter's full (I doubt it), and I'll find somewhere else.

Delter booked If its not too much hastle might be worth me checking in on our way out of the station so I can drop my gear off err yeh trains.... I just looked em up.. and forgot
