It's that time of year again when we start to think about going on holiday, the summer, getting away from it all. It's also the time when all the festivals start, i.e. beer festivals, whisky festivals and there are lots of them happening in Scotland. I plan to go to as many as I can and have started with the Paisley Beer Festival a couple of weeks ago. Check out the video below to get a flavour of the event:
After the beer festival john and I went on to two pubs in Paisley, "Hamishes Hoose" and the "The Last Post". We had a meal in Hamishes Hoose, we were feeling hungry after all the great beers at the festival ! then moved on to the Last post, which is a large Wetherspoons pub. Both are well worth a visit and are reviewed on the pub reviews page - Check  out the reviews as there are lots of photo's and more information there about the pubs.

There are lots of festivals over the next couple of months, check out the festivals page of the web site - Festivals
I am planning to go to the "Thistly Cross Cider Festival" with my wife Christine on Friday 3rd and Saturday 4th June 2011. This is held at the Belhaven fruit farm just outside Dunbar and has lots of Cider and great real ales from various breweries. There is also a Ceilidh and small camp site. I'm looking forward to it as we are meeting some friends, Julie and Kamil, and we are not taking out children !!!!!! - An adults weekend away. I will take some video and do a report for the blog.

See you again,

Alastair
