Ealing Beer Festival

IBM Leave a comment

We’ve been to the Beer Festival before, but this is the first year that we volunteered to help out behind the bar.

Pulling A Pint

We initially vounteered for two afternoons, but ended up doing a third as we enjoyed it that much! On Friday too, we had an ulterior motive as one of favorite local bands were playing – the Good Ol’ Boys.

Inbetween our sessions behind the bar we got the opportunity to sample a few beers ourselves. There were over 500 to choose from!

We will certainly be volunteeering again next year!

It’s certainly living up to its name this month, and lat month too thinking about it. We had some quite high winds at times during March, and now we’re getting rainy days.

I was going to go out and do a local photowalk today but the weather has put paid to my plans.

Instead I am catching up on some computer tasks. I certainly have plenty of Lightroom and Photoshop work to get on with.

Not a good night’s sleep. After getting to sleep around 2am I kept walking up with a headache. It’s not booze as I had one G&T around 10.30 last night and that was it.

There’s been a bug going around so it could be that. Anyway, I decided that is probably be better getting up and going to the gym so I did.

After my workout I met Kathy in Costa

Cappuccino, Costa

Then we checked out Mam’s Cuisine, which is right next door. I had a vegetarian sandwich, and Kathy had Chicken Thali.

Bought some chicken breast on the way home, and I marinated that when we got indoors.  Kathy cooked that and we had a salad with it.  Afterwards, Christmas pudding and double cream.

A Sam Adams Boston Lager to wash it down.
