Celebrations in Cowes

It's been a bit of a day in Cowes. . . Royals, Kings (only the nice ones), White trousers and blazers, Hats, Red trousers, Local Pomp, Cheering and Hip hip hooraying. I think it is the Royal Yacht Squadron's 200 Birthday party, so there are lots of nice yachts. The King of Denmark, who went shopping locally (by all accounts), has the best boat.

Dr Bean arrives in Cowes

We've been rather busy on the coffee front recently. We attended the lovely Old Gaffers Festival, in Yarmouth, which was as popular as always - plenty of coffee and a large amount of afternoon tea, served up in style by Doug.
The other news is that we now have a permanent home in Cowes - situated within the PHG store at the bottom of Market Hill. This is going really well and we are settling in to the unusual arrangement of making coffee indoors. Another plus is that we are using the locally produced 'Island Roasted' Coffee - thanks Dan!

Dawn, the owner of the aforementioned PHG also sells Dr Bean's Bags, so for the first time ever, the two sides of the business are seen together!
