Blackpool & Fylde CAMRA

On behalf of the Blackpool, Fylde & Wyre branch of CAMRA I'd like to thank all those who turned up at last weekend's 37th Fleetwood Beer and Cider Festival and by having a couple of drinks made it a wonderful success! You drank about 1500 pints of real ale, 500 pints of cider and perry and cleared out the world beer bar.  In doing so you raised a record of over £450 for Fleetwood RNLI!  We hope you enjoyed yourselves, we did, and are happy to announce that subject to all the boring stuff like budgetary approval, we hope to be back for the 38th festival at the wonderful Marine Hall between the 6th until the 8th February 2020. Get it penciled in your diary now, see you there!
I'd also like to publicly thank all the volunteers that worked so hard to stage the festival and the staff of the Marine Hall who make us so very welcome. Thanks ladies and gents, we couldn't do it without you!
Just before the festival, the Branch decided on its Pub and Club of the Year for 2019.  So congratulations to The Craft House in Lytham for being voted as our Pub of the Year for 2019.  We will be presenting the award there on 7th March at around 8pm. All welcome, although the place is a little small to hold all 2760 branch members!  We will also be presenting Silver, runners-up, Pub of the Year awards to the Thatched House, Poulton (14th March at approx 8pm), The Poulton Elk, Poulton (date to be confirmed, check our website) and Fifteens of St Annes (also date TBC). Our Club of the Year is once again Blackpool Cricket Club, congratulations to them. Their presentation is also still to be confirmed. The Craft House and Blackpool Cricket Club now go forward to the Lancashire competition.
We will also be presenting our Spring Pub of the Season award to the Stanley Arms, in Wesham on 11th April from about 8pm. Congratulations also to them!
Please note that our branch AGM will be held at Blackpool Cricket Club on 25th April 2019 at 8pm. All Branch members are welcome to attend, but to vote you will need to bring a valid membership card. All Committee posts are open for re-election, nomination forms will be appearing on the Branch web site in the next few days and must be returned to the Branch Secretary by noon on the 25th April.

A Ballad for Brexiteers

Anyone who has  ever lived in Africa can have nothing but praise for those who brought this country into the 20th Century before Mugabe returned it to the Stone Age. That means they stone the Whites, the immigrants, the dissenters, the poor and starving.

Rhodesia in Song.  RIP Clem Tholet.

Morons challenged over Brexit

A voice of reason whom the Remainiacs HATE.
