I know i’ve mentioned this before but we consider ourselves very fortunate to live within throwing distance of a local pub which is truly the heart of the village and not only do Dawn and Keith look after us in their own special way but Dawn lets us order ‘off menu’ as long as we give her (and her butcher) enough notice…
… mum and eric made an impromptu visit to the cottage this week to see us, although sometimes I feel that they’ve only come to eat at the pub and sample Dawns wonderful lamb cutlets, roasted to perfection in honey and thyme… pink and dangerously tasty!
The Railway Tavern in Aby has just won the coveted East and West Midlands region Best Community Pub Awards 2010 and they thoroughly deserve it… congratulations Dawn, Keith and Holly for all the hard work! (and for calling the butcher at a moments notice.) They are off down to the big smoke on the 8th September to compete in the grand final and we all have no doubts they’ll be coming home with the trophy!
