Bit shellfish
Consonant reader,
Today I drove through a village just south of Milton Keynes called Woburn.
The streets were packed with people, the roads clogged up with parked cars and there were loads of stalls set up in the village centre selling drinks and snacks.
The occasion? The Woburn Oyster Festival.
Of course, a village which is essentially landlocked and far from the sea celebrating the joys and pleasures of a bi-valve mollusc.
Like, you would have a festival set up for these things? Last month it was probably the Week of the Leek or the Two days of the absolute Honey Glazed Ham bender. Day of the Trout? 24 hours Salami People?
I drove through looking at all these poor, frightened oyster worshippers filling up the streets with complete disbelief.
I never knew the act of licking phlegm off a turtle's back could spark such a community into day long hedonsim.

This is getting stupid.
First day back to school, set off from Gloucester to Hereford, didnt quite know the way and ended up going a longer route than needed.
On the way back this afternoon I went a different way which is a lot quicker. I drove through a village called Newent, which on September the 11th is proudly holding its annual Onion festival.
Onion festival?
