It’s noted that we are officially in a heatwave and that expert advice is for people to regularly drink cold drinks like water or fruit juice, and to avoid alcohol.

Whilst I will give this important advice all due regard, it’s the third weekend of July and as such I will be attending the Kent Beer Festival for the thirteenth consecutive year, regularly drinking luke warm beer and avoiding cold drinks like water or fruit juice.

I’m back and will be responding to e-mails – dehydration permitting – on Tuesday 23^rd July.

Thanks,

J
