A sunny second day at this new country fair: I was pleased and intrigued to meet fellow P and B scribe The Brewingman.

All a bit chaotic to get in due to problems with the rain yesterday but plenty of stewards pointing us in the right direction. Tractors were an a good peg for this LOCAL country show. Local beers and ciders and stallholders. Please don't get too big. Beer stands from Hop Fuzz and Whitstable along with Old Dairy beer in the catering tent. We even popped along to Wittenden's plant stall and bought something (as well as meeting a fellow Pubs and Beer poster).
