Gas, beer, more beer and music

 Now I have reached the kitchen!  Once I had cleared everything out of the way, the space looked bigger and, of course, I spent a day redesigning the kitchen layout!
The first thing to go in was the Gas. I was not looking forward to straightening the roll of 3/8 gas pipe but it was far easier than I anticipated.  I fixed a long line of plastic clips down the length of the boat, and simply rolled the pipe into them.  I left a decent length in the gas locker as I hadn't yet decided what I was going to do there, and fit a tee and two gas taps behind one of the potential kitchen cupboards.  There are two taps as I have a separate hob and oven.

Beer festival time again, so most of March was involved in running what may well be the first Padiham Beer Festival, and the fifth (I think) Ramsbottom Beer Festival.


They both went really well, except for the odd complaint that "The beers aren't in alphabetical order", and other such anal nonsense.  What matters is
  •     Plenty of excellent beer
  •     £2000.00 raised for RNLI (not enough but a good start)
