It's and we hope you enjoyed the extended bank holiday weekend (if you weren't at work!)
Mrs W is back from her Cรดte d'Azur decompress, bringing some beautiful wine home for Mr W...not this one though - this French gem is from , we may have mentioned it before because it's perfect for these warm evenings, and organic too ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท.

On to this week and Thursday is the return of Open Mic .arts then Saturday, if you wish to cast your musical net wider are at the Crown Post Harwich. The Manningtree Earth Festival has kicked off properly too with events all this week; leading into JUNE and the return of on Saturday 6th, with soooo much stuff going on we couldn't fit it all in; go check out their pages, ร  bientรดt ๐Ÿฅ‚

"Do you remember the first time? (2022). You know that we've changed so much since then.Oh yeah, we've grown". The new format festival launches this Saturday.

It's a and we LOVE a bee friendly wine ๐Ÿ, (yes some vineyards have bee hives to help biodiversity, pollinating cover crops that in turn not only help soil, but attract predator bugs, who keep the nasty ones away). So if you see a vineyard with beehives, then you know it's been looked after organically, 'cos bees hate that man made s**t!

It's good news for too, we're coming to a bank holiday weekend and has something for everyone:

FRIDAY 22nd sees the launch of the newest joint in town Little Bear Bar , just off North Street behind travel (the old much lamented bakery), launching with a great range of local beers. We shall see about the wine, my oenophile friends ๐Ÿ˜œ. Later on there is the return of The Remedy at The Crown from 7.30p.m

SATURDAY 23rd is the final in the old Barclays bank before it goes to auction, so get down to town and check it out plus do drop in to all the other shops to see what's new.

SUNDAY 24th is another chance to spread the love for local traders at the Mistley bazaar, (drop into the postie for a cheeky spritz on the way?๐Ÿน) then dem Lettuce heads will be back The Red Lion shaking their bank holiday butts for you from 8.00p.m

Don't forget to check out the rest of our tiny towns shops and bars; Estuarywinebar is gearing up for Pride on 6th June with some brand new cocktails, are open extra hours and have started getting in some STUNNING organic wines,from hallgarten and we expect the Skinners have some sport on, if that's your thing ๐Ÿฅฑ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿคฃ. What did we miss, comment below!?

We are happy to have supported the patron saint of Colchester and fantastic organisation today (and for the glory of Rome), on the pier to pier march. VII 'gruelling' miles, facing barbarian hordes and wild beasts along the way ๐Ÿคฃ, taking shelter at Walton for sustenance ๐Ÿฅ‚, before catching the horseless carriage home. Gratias multas to everyone who supported us, (so far) every denarius helps make the final days comfortable. Tempus fugit ๐Ÿ•š.

It's a stormy & weird and, after last weeks locals, I think we all need a drink; funnily enough we accidentally fell into Hadleigh earlier, whilst on a mission, and were saddened to discover they are one of FIVE branches in the area closing at the end of May. Bad news for wine lovers, but we cheered ourselves up by picking up the requisite half dozen, including this Saperavi (outside of Italy varietals, one of our favorite reds) . Wonder how long that stays in the rack ๐Ÿค”.

Also, this weekend, if you want to be soothed, stunned and seduced by strings get thee to church, this Friday 15th, for the new album playthrough from the world famous, engaging and entertaining and extraordinary harp tickler Joy Smith.
https://www.ticketsource.com/jorge-jimenez/curiosa-lost-found-tunes/e-yzjgzg ๐ŸŽป ๐Ÿช‰ ๐Ÿซถ. Surely better than the masochistic experience of the Eurovision 'song' contest ๐Ÿ™„ ๐Ÿ˜ต ๐Ÿ˜œ.

And (probably not) the final reminder that we will (both) be marching the seven mile stretch from Clacton to Walton pier, with one of us in period (Roman) garb for St Helena Hospice, this Sunday 17th May. If you do wish to add coin follow the link or search just giving Sir Winyl
https://www.justgiving.com/page/sir-winyl-6?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL but we are doing it as a good excuse to dress up and clock some more healthy 'wine credits' miles up ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿท๐Ÿฅ‚.

It's and we're heading back after our first Albanian experience. Lots of Italian wine on sale (unsurprisingly) but we stuck with the local verรซ and had some beautiful new juice, as pictured, also some utter filth ๐Ÿคฎ. TBF they were from shops in a largely Muslim area, so who knows how long those bottles had been rotting there ๐Ÿ™„.

We hope you had a lovely UK bank holiday, time to recoup before the next one when there is exciting news with opening weekend from Friday 22nd. Saturday 23rd is very possibly final as the site goes to auction (at least that means something is happening), spaces are limited so ask Tony 07877 244661. Then, on Sunday 24th The Red Lion host just to make sure you're not fit for anything on Monday ๐Ÿ˜‚

It's a fine , for one of us at least, because Winyl is 'on tour' again; can you guess where this time?๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฑ. Expect stories of the wine and more. But we don't feel bad, because we're leaving you with a bloody amazing May bank holiday weekend line up:

๐Ÿช• FRIDAY 1st - Anna Pancaldi, a properly famous film and TV songwriter, who channels Joni M, plus Americana star Dan Raza upstairs

๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ SATURDAY 2nd - after your shopping trip and taking in the new art zone South Street and studios on Stour Street , then Estuarywinebar welcomes back the wonderfully talented Brooke Telling from 4.00-6.00p.m

๐ŸงตSUNDAY 3rd is a triple delight with a special makers market, from 10.30a.m on the marketplace and then the evening kicks off with everyone's favourite (musical) k**b fiddlers Keystone upstairs The Red Lion or if you want to camp it up Will Power is golden from 8.30. Do them both, just like the old days?

๐ŸŒ‘ MONDAY 4th is of course Star Wars day but it's also 45 Day so dig out your 7" (back to Keystone ๐Ÿ˜‰) and play away at home, or find a pub with a record player and annoy them instead ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿฅ‚

It's and in between the cease of the ceasefire that may become another ceasefire ๐Ÿ›ณ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ, the very untransparent plausible deniability of the foreign office ๐Ÿ™ˆ ๐Ÿ™Š ๐Ÿ™‰ everyone seems to be talking about sploshing ๐ŸซŸ .

Well, we don't know about you, but the only sploshing we've ever done is very accidental, involving wine. Poor doggy!! ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ’ฆ

In other vinyl news then the record store day leftovers have made their way online, so if you didn't get everything and still have a wish list , check your local record shop website (or their ebay) first, before getting ripped off by the scalpers.ย 

And if you're out and about this weekend, pop into the to catch the Colchester Buskers matinee show, before hitting . (We'll be paying a visit to the Little Bentley Beer Festival). Next weekend it's MAY bank holiday, with lots more happening.

It's and if you didn't venture out for and are keeping it local then is OPEN FOR TRADE. Yes, there is a small part of the road closed at Wherry corner, but there is a diversion in place via Quay Street. You can still park in all the usual places, the market is on, the shops will be open and there is a BRAND NEW SHOP to visit. โค๏ธ
