Hi All,
What a year so far! We hope you are all well and safe along with your loved ones and friends. Unless this virus hits close to home, it is really hard to understand what it is all about and why we are where we are. Not being able to run The Edge this year is sensible in the grand scheme of things, there will be a next time. There are of course much bigger things to worry about so please do continue to keep safe and well.
Hard to imagine that if but for Covid-19, we would be serving you all pints of Cider and Ales from around the Country and in and around the local area. This time last year we were sound checking ready for the afternoon's entertainment, running around swapping casks and wondering if we had enough... we will certainly miss seeing everyone for our annual catch up. No gate rattling last Wednesday night as 6pm loomed... no sneaking onsite early to see if we will be ready Mr Marcus B... no booming laugh from Mr Trout etc. On the bright side.... less than a year to go until we can meet up at The Edge! (ducks)
We had looked at the ability to do a live Zoom or Facebook event for the day with the bands entertaining you all safe at home but needed a location that would work and of course, still closed. We may have to park that and perhaps do something closer to Christmas where you can still feel the Summer vibe while warming feet by the fire. If we can't pull it together then we just have more time to plan for next year!
Stay safe and see you again
The Team on The Edge
