A Skilled Photographer and a New Cocktail Recipe, Just For You.

Things are going so well here at Friary, that last month we hired 2 more staff to assist with the influx of orders, and help with the ever growing, liqueur consuming society that you are. They're a brilliant and positive addition to a growing team. And who knew, one of them came with previous photography experience? This got me off the hook with my ropey imagery, and severe lack of creative skills. So I'm looking to learn a thing or 2 and build up the skill bank with some assistance from Claire. Meanwhile, she's been beavering away, creating some stunning...

A Trip to Cheddar

Today I've been lucky enough to be out and about meeting some of our lovely customers in Cheddar Gorge.

A Feeling of Sheer Exhaustion

I don't know about you lot, but we're 4 weeks into this Summer "Holiday" and I'm in need of a holiday. The word holiday to me denotes relaxing time. Sleeping, eating and drinking lots, and a general feeling of refreshment!! Ha ha ha ha (queue the hysterical, mad woman laughter) ... relax? Sleep? What even is this? Thank goodness for food and drink.  Now I do love spending time with the little ones so please don't misinterpret this rant. They're bundles of fun and do provide lots of laughter, but there's only so many times I can say "Don't lick...
