Not sure the sloe wine will be ready for glasto, as it's supposed to be matured for a year. Think it'll be more of an autumn/winter drink anyway. I am thinking of having a go at making mead though. That should be a fair bit quicker. If successful, I could bring some along!

That's inspiring. I've bought some apple trees for the lotty. I'll bring cider (in 2027).

I shall donate my share to anyone else - tried to like Mead but yukkie is my constant response when I try it.

2027 is a fallow year

Not for Yorkshire "zider". I'd like to get back to making beer too, but scarce time and an inability to keep it long enough make that unlikely ;-)

Have you tried a dry(ish) mead? I like traditional sweet mead in small quantities, but a dry one is like drinking a dry wine with the taste of summer meadows in the background. I'm hoping to produce both, so maybe you'll give it a try!

I've had that at posh afternoon tea before. We've got a tea house in Preston that serves flower tea too.

[mr gumby]

Mr Gumby, I LOVE mead. Love it!

Me too! It'll be my first go at making it myself, but the recipe seems pretty easy (famous last words!).

Good luck! I like a sweet mead, but every one I have tried I have liked! I've never tried to make booze of any variety- oh apart from strawberry gin for this years fest. That was nice!

Tour recommendation:

George The Poet.

Tickets on sale later this week.

Tip for everyone: never tell a child something is a secret. I was making a birthday present with our little boy today for his mum's birthday next week and I told him not to say anything when she got in. The first words out of his mouth when she arrived were 'Mummy Birthday!' I'm slowly learning!

[mr gumby]

Back on topic, we didn't get to page 192 last time round until mid-May, so we're 6 months ahead! The weather gods must bless us if we keep this up! 2000 pages anyone?

[H.M.V]

Rotter of a day at work but just won tickets to go to Body & Soul festival next year! Woo hoo!

Only problem is, its the weekend before Glastonbury. Decisions decisions!

[jeffie]

HMV, what's the decision?
