A CRACKING COUPLE OF FESTIVALS


It has been my very great pleasure in the past fortnight to go as a guest to two excellent festivals…
OFF THE TRACKS
at Isley Walton in Derbyshire and
THE DOCK OF THE BAY
at Glasson Dock near Lancaster, the former so called because it’s slap bang next the the Donnington Park racecourse and these days can be considered one of the elder statesmen among festivals as it has been going twice yearly for twenty three years and has established itself very nicely as one of the good ones serving up a decent helping of good music washed down with perhaps one of the best real ale bars you can find anywhere. Sixty, yes SIXTY different beers, ciders and perrys. I can be very happy at a place like that...
