The Gomshall Whisky Assoc meeting

A trip to see Gavin and Glenys would not be complete without a Whisky tasting session. As you may know, Gavin and I have started a Whisky still in NZ, and we bought some of our brew to England to partake in a " blind tasting." G& G invited their neighbour over, who is quite famous in the UK( more later) along with their British friends from Woking.. We had nibbles, etc, and then got down to the serious business of Whisky. Matt said a special Gallic ode for the proceedings and then judging began. To Gavin and I surprise, one of our brews won the competition .
Their neighbour, Adam, is a local, and he is a landscape architect and does work for the Royal family. He regaled stories of his interactions with the family and the work he had done.
Over the last few days, we have visited Abinger Hatch, Dorking, Peaslake, Godalming, and my ⁹favourite village, Shere. We walked the Pilgrims Way to Shere. The Pilfrims Way to a path stretching from Canterbury cathedral to Gloucester. The weather has been a real treat.Read more
