Jennings Brewery, Cockermouth, Cumbria

A wander round Cockermouth this afternoon. Just missed Prince Charles (in town yesterday) who was meeting the local shopkeepers and residents about a year after the floods. Loads of places are still shut although it is a nice busy wee West Cumbrian market town. The wanderings were made all the better by coming across the Jennings Brewery. Good Ales round this part of the world.

Forest Sale Protest tomorrow. After the Con-Dem U-turn on selling England's ancient woodland it's best to show support in case they try a full 360. 'We'll fight them on the Beeches'
