I can't make this month either lads, though that's not the reason I haven't organised the meet.  Just dropped the ball on it. :-[

Put your name down here, and if there's sufficient interest. I'll organise with the landlord.

Been doing judge training the last few weekends, so I think I'll give my liver a much needed break and bow out this meet.

I need some advice on cider yeasts but i want to talk to one to one at a meeting. I do have sparkling apple wine from 2014 if any one wants to try, that just might save my bacon. I'm currently in the middle of pressing apples and have pressed 100kg to date. I have also come across an Orchard open to the public and tell you guys were it is on Thursday.

looks like we'll be keeping the powder dry for next month so lads....
@Jamman a one to one chat with me about cider would be as useful to you as tits on a bull..... i know nothing and find it hard to appreciate even the best examples

CH's cider tinged whiskey from last month was as close as i've ever gotten to enjoying an apple based bevvie!!

Why? There wasn't enough interest/attendance to organise a meet this month. To be honest, I thought that was fairly obvious from the various comments above.

Sorry you had a wasted trip.
