Haymaker, but no sunshine.


In spite of many threats of a visit last summer, we never quite made it to the local Hook Norton Brewery. Finally today it received a visit from the Ellis's. As most will know we had over last summer done extensive research of the brewery in question.

In true Ellis style we arrived just after it had closed so there was nothing for it but to head to the pub to sample some brew. Just on the off chance there was a brew there not yet tried........

And indeed there was. Oh what joy. A new Ale to sample.

Ale Scale - Haymaker Pale Ale - 9/10. If not 9 and a half out of 10, so impressed were we.


On another note...........

Popped up to Old Farm the other day. Wandered off to say hello to the horseys and thought someone was looking very pleased with herself.

Yes.

I am delighted to report that Madame Fally's week of "lovin" has produced results. She is with child.......... or foal, should I say. Sarah is very excited and has already bought a "what to expect" book. Batsford Estate have said they will help her out "when the time comes".

How exciting.
