Slap! Ooh, that's got to hurt.

On our first real outing post-beer festival, Addie was feeling quite seriously sorry for himself. This was because, last Sunday on a sunny day in the south of England, he decided to enjoy a few hours of sunbathing. In the inexpert fashion Addie generally employs for most activities, he decided to take a chance and not bother with a hat, sunscreen, or any of the other sensible precautions fair-skinned people should normally take.

The result? Monday morning, in the office, glowing. He was amazing; he could have been the aircraft safety beacon one sees on top of a tall tower. You just have to admire an effort like this.

I was so distracted by this wonderful accomplishment I almost forgot to take any notice of the beer. We went for an old favourite, Hogs Back, Summer Ale, at 4.3%. Not quite up there with TEA from the same brewery, but a great beer all the same which is easy to drink and easy to enjoy. 7 out of 10 from me.

Addie must have a bit of sunstroke, surely? Later in the office, I caught him using spellcheck to help him correctly render his own name. This is a fellow blogger, dear reader. Are you sure you're really in safe hands?
