The "6 Of The Best" Wedmore Real Ale
Festival
The WRAF "6 of the best" Festival
Some say that it was the best year
ever, it was certainly up there with the rest of them. There was
plenty of beer right up until we closed the doors on Sunday (well, fell
out of them!). The entertainment was brilliant, Crawfish were
great on Friday night, Saturday afternoon debuted "Gramophone Pete" and
his nostalgic cowboy tunes, "Loose change" pounded the windows on
Saturday and live Jazz brought everyone down gently on the Sunday.
The raffle raised over £1000 (thanks Laura!), the auction (including
landladies knickers) raised over £600 (thanks Alan) and Trevor raised
his glass repeatedly whilst standing by the door "troubleshooting"!
