Oktoberfest opens
(https://www.virtual-pub.com/SMF/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fnewsimg.bbc.co.uk%2Fmedia%2Fimages%2F44132000%2Fjpg%2F_44132314_newwaitress_afp416b.jpg&hash=968e7378f3cfe06563d9645985260d8b6362d587)

Over the 16 days of the event, an estimated six million litres (13m pints) of beer are expected to be drunk.

Wait just a minute... who is behind the BAR? I just found Wenchy's photo in the link above... and it started today.

All that talk about being at home alone with a fish supper was just a Red Herring. whistle:

Well they did after the first two hours.

The town of Louth itself? Well, that's a whole new thread.
