Thank you, you're very kind.
the beer festival was in Didsbury, near where I live. I do enjoy doing solo things, but it does get frustrating after a while, it would be nice to have the choice rather than being forced into it like I am now. And no, I didn't meet anyone, virtually everyone else had people to make conversation with, I only really spoke to a CAMRA representative, but oh well!

It was decent enough, I had a few nice ones. One called Vanilla Stout was my favourite. As I said, it was decent but would have been better with company.
As for the links, I definitely used the right coding, maybe it's in my settings, I'll have a look sometime.
