Weekend In Dorset (pic heavy)

[Adam Savage]

Ivan and I spent the weekend just gone, down at Dorset, for one of the many cider festivals. Our good friend Bushwhacker played host and local guide, but Ivan and me still managed to get lost on Friday night :). Friday night was the warm up to the Saturday, Saturday was the festival, and Sunday was the recovery. Here's a few photos of the weekend.

A prize winning ferret and Iv'...See if you can guess which is which :p...

Sadly there was too much merriment on the actual night, for photo taking (plus my battery died), so that's it I'm afraid.

I lived in Gillingham (Dorset) for four years and you wez cundry boys doan ahf mke oi laaahf! The only more laid back place I've been is Barbados - for the brothers wedding.

Working at a wine merchant in Mere, we had a bin man who came to collect an old fridge (by special request of the boss), and he said to me: "This fridge ...eerr..where's it to?" so I said: "I dunno..take it where you like- he just wants rid of it", he says again: "yeah, but...where's it to?" Me (now totally confused): "Why are you asking me where it's going - you're the bloody binman!" He pauses, thinks for a while and realizing I was born in another part of the country, says: "No...where abouts is it?"

Britain - dozens of dialects divided by a common language!
