    Cheers, Red God ..... just going down the pub now.

    I'll start off with a pint of Doombar - from Sharp's Brewery down at Rock, across the water from Padstow.

    St Just-in-Penwith down near Pendeen, Lands End area?
    Most westerly town in England.

    Or there's St Just-in-Roseland, not so far from Truro.

    It's the one at the very edge of the world, over-looking the Atlantic!

    Well, I got back in at 3.30 in the morning, a bit the worse for wear.

    The history is cool, don't know about the politics - but a great excuse for a p!ss up!
    Shades of the Irish St Paddy's Day.

    Hair of the dog, you mean Chizz?

    I'm out again tonight, 8-ish.
    I can wait for a beer until then.

    Tomorrow, we've got a gig put on to raise funds for the Haiti appeal.
    Local bands and musicians, kicks off at 5pm until we drop.

    So more beers tomorrow.
    One of those weekends!
