Great idea, Jason. But we need some COLD draft beers as well, not just that warm stuff. |

Krissy = Fair Maiden Upoetia Jason = Her true love Barbara = The other woman We can do this every night to bring customers from near and far to witness history. We will hit the top of the lists for places to visit before you die! |

Then after the carnival parade, our pub hosts a medieval evening with traditional English foods and tableware, served with mead from the local monestary, served by our famous wenches. The highlight of the end of the evening thence,is by gathering on the village green to burn a straw woman atop the bon fire; symbolising the tragic death of this fair young village maiden all those centuries ago. |
