Had a great weekend at the Jolly Up. Thanks Roy and Haley and everyone who contributed to make it a fun weekend. First time I flew a kite this year!! Thoroughly enjoyed catching up with everyone and having a laugh. Been a long cold winter here in East Anglia and the sunshine of Cliddesden was well worth the journey down.

I don't know about sunshine. I remember a bit of moonshine over the beer tent.

So that was Moonshine in Roy's bottle.
He told me it was wiskey.
