What a weekend with this threesome and just look at that book.  Made In Herefordshire - exciting new collaboration with contributors from restaurants, producers, B&B's (oh yes - check out the lavender /honey shortbread recipe from yours truly).  It was launched in the presence of His Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester - a splendid gentleman who genuinely thought we Herefordshire Farmers - and some, "real people" - no comment!

The real launch for me was to the people of Hereford at the magnificent Flavours of Herefordshire Food Festival.  We are so lucky in Hereford to have quite the most magnificent Cathedral - the Dean and Chapter (the former bought a book for his collection) graciously allowed the festival to happen in and around the confines of the Cathedral grounds - awesome in many ways.  It was quite surreal chatting to the JuiceShack boys then the Passion4Fish folk, sampling Oliver's Perry and then listening to organ practice - that is Hereford - what a mix!
