Should have gone to the Welsh party they had both Welsh Cider and Perry [...] also real cider
Arg. I really was depressingly bad at circulating around the parties.
And the very idea of a Hereford cider festival sounds very tempting indeed - my mum's side of the family is from around Hereford, and she now lives in Ledbury. We had a very enjoyable visit to Weston's last time we went down, if somewhat frustrating (I could only bring away as much cider as I could physically carry in my already fairly heavy luggage)
We don't do too badly in Manchester - several supermarkets stock fairly good bottled stuff - but I wish we had the sort of pubs you find in the west country, with an anonymous barrel on the end of the bar...
