Linda and I spent a busy long weekend filling kiters with beer, heres a few pics. Lots of fun had. 20 kegs of beer drunk by Saturday night, spent Sunday and monday touring around Andover buying all the ale and lager from every off lisence we could find, and emptied ever shop of their stock of plastic pint containers. (bought 500 just from Woolworths!!!)

Linda 'gettin' it' with a power kite.





Even the dogs got in on the act....

And just to keep the surf interest going, the 'Bullet'.. plus caravan and horse box (beer barrel transporter) behind the bar.

Only one other surf there though... where were all the kiting surfers???

You missed the world's largest ever buggy event - over 700 buggys registered, and over 1000 people were flying!!!

We sold 23 barrels of beer, lager and Swamp Donkey, plus 28 cases of lager and bitter in tins!!!

That's nice. I come back off me hols suntanned, feeling fit, with sunbleached hair from power kiting on Brean Beach. You have to be chubby to power kite properly. It's all about ballast. I thought everyone knew that.

Best bit was when I tried to drive the lorry home without realising someone had tied a kite to it!!
