The reason I get up every afternoon

The Cerne Abbas Brewery stall at Athelhampton House, near Dorchester, this morning: this was the Dorset Food and Drink Festival held there, a beautiful house of modest proportions (see Extra).  It was pretty chilly today, despite the sunshine, and I felt sorry for the stallholders (except for the few in the house right next to the roaring fire).

We bought several cheeses, some beer (naturally) and mince pies with Grand Marnier to flavour them.  We didn't spend too much . . .
