Moving up a gear!

The tempo of preparations for the Food and Drink Festival really has moved up a gear this week!

Tickets for the Manger a Trois roving meals and for the minibus Real Ale Trails have just gone on sale and the response has been staggering. Friends of the Festival had priority booking during the past fortnight and sales are now open to the public. Tickets can be bought from Folwells Estate Agents in Station Road or online on the Festival website. I predict the Real Ale Trail will sell out within a week closely followed by the Manger a Trois!

Banners across the High Street will be put up tomorrow and the "A Team" assure me that the bunting will be fluttering in the breeze down the High Street for Saturday's Farmers' Market.

I am still getting enquiries from traders and requests from chefs.

Somehow I think this year's Festival is going to be good!

Pleased to hear that tickets are selling so well, although 'm not surprised in the slightest! I'm really looking forward to the festival again this year, especially the Best of Staffordshire beer festival. Hope to see you during the festival
