Q. How's that pronounced?
A. Chumston (points to me for knowing that one).
Q. What's this? (Clue: His right hand isn't blurred due to Parkinson's, he's actually winding something)
A: It's a Hurdy Gurdy (I didn't know that one!).
These two were part of a gang we encountered in the Black Lion in Nantwich. You can see them "in action" on Elaine's Facebook page. But back to the pub - what a place it is! Built in 1664 as a pub and it's always been a pub. Well worth a visit, as is Nantwich as a whole. It's like a miniature Chester
full of interesting buildings, pubs and restaurants. I particularly liked the mobile pizza operation
in this converted fire engine. If you look closely the mid section has dough rolling equipment and the wood burning pizza oven is at the back - I love to see ingenuity like this.
