Appropriate ale


On the way to the marina we drove through Nantwich and stopped at Morrison's for some last-minute supplies. As well as bargain bread - bags of rolls for 9p each bag - I bought some Piddle in the Hole beer (£1/bottle).


I photographed it for the printing error on the front label, but it was only after looking at the photo that I realised that there was a waterways theme. A reminder to keep that stern gland adjusted and greased, perhaps?

I used to pass Wyre Piddle (where that beer is made) every day on the way to work about 40 years ago. At that time there was a petrol station there amusingly called Piddle Filling Station!

I love the label! As you say, a timely reminder, even though the word Piddle makes you think of other things entirely ;-)

I grew up in Dorset and Somerset and there were lots of Piddles and Puddles down there...
