Well... what a weekend that was!!
I just want to say a massive thank you to all my friends, family and incredible staff who made this weekend happen. It was hard work, long hours and plenty of stress, but you all did us proud. 👏💙
A special thank you to Dad for pulling together the brilliant barrel arch at very short notice! 😂🍺
And to Mum thank you for the countless hours of hard work as always.
Ameana for putting up with me being moody and stressed 😂
All that's left now is a couple of tents and a mountain of rubbish! 🙈😂
A huge thank you as well to our amazing sponsors:
🍻 MKM Building Supplies
🍺 Korev L***r
🍎 Thatchers C***r
🍺 Otter Brewery
A special thanks to Paul for capturing the weekend with some cracking photos too! 📷👏
Before the weekend I had to deal with all the comments of...
"It'll be noisy."
"People will park all over the place."
"I'm not paying to go for a pint."
"I can listen at home for free."
"It's too expensive."
If I'm honest, those comments made me question why am I even bothering. 💭
But then I looked around...
I saw a pub full of people from 8 weeks old to 80+ years young. I saw smiles, laughter, dancing, fun, friends catching up, families making memories and a community coming together to enjoy themselves. 🥰🎶🍻
That's why I started this. Not to make big profits, but to give people a reason to get out for a couple of nights, enjoy great music, support local businesses and bring not just our village, but the whole area together. And if we've managed to raise a little money for local charities and clubs along the way too, then that's even better. ❤️
So thank you to every single person who got behind it, bought a ticket, turned up, supported it and made it such a fantastic weekend. It honestly means the world. 🙂
Now for the big question...
Do I put my family, friends and staff through it all again next year? 🤔😂🎉
