Knackered today, just had a great dinner at The Jackdaw (though with a slight service hiccup) and now we're spending the afternoon chilling before heading back to Chambers for more beer festival action.
Started the weekend sedately enough, stayed in and watched Narnia. Friday was also a quiet day, but then we took our first trip to the beer festival. Wasn't too busy, so we could sit down and enjoy it, working through four different beers I think. One of them was an evilly strong "Skull Splitter", maybe that's what made me a little unwell later. Maybe it was that we kept drinking cider when we got back home again. All fine for Saturday though, Emma is visiting from London, we cooked food and headed out to the comedy club at The Lanterns. Alex Horne was very good, as were the other two acts and the compere. Shame we're going to miss the next occurrence, but we'll hopefully be back again in June.
Feeling too fat and lazy to write much really, back later...

Had been meaning to try out the Jackdaw for a good while, we pass through Denton every time we go to Canterbury, but aren't usually in a position to stop. This time we were!
Super meal, plenty of choice, a REALLY nice pub. We were on wheels, so couldn't stop and sample the full range of beers and wines, but our food was great. There are several vege options available at any one time, this time I went for the vege bean gumbo. Portions are very generous, though this was perhaps one of the smaller meals they do. Clare had a the beef and guinness pie and said it was fabulous.
We returned a few weeks later for a Saturday evening dinner - you'll need to book for this. Clare returned to her favoured pie, and this time I joined her on that part of the menu. I had something like a Pear and ginger pie, and it was fantastic. It's a tomatoey sauce, no dairy, lots of veg and a hint of (can you guess) pear and ginger. Plenty of vegetables and potatoes on the side, and this time we could try the beers too.
A great place for a meal, can't recommend it enough. If only it was a bit nearer to Folkestone, it's a bit far to be a regular taxi journey...
