Life in Beckworth » Dr Brian Cox http://visitbeckworth.co.uk/life-in-beckworth Bringing you the (almost) everyday comings and goings of the residents of Beckworth, a typical English market town.

I just wanted to apologise for the no-show of Dr Brian Cox today, he was apparently double booked to talk about sun and moon stuff on breakfast telly and didn’t tell us. Still at least Bill Oddie showed up to share his binoculars with us all. Though to be honest because of the dense smog over the pub car park there was nothing to see. And it didn’t even go dark. Or cold. But on a brighter note we did sell out of drinks and a dozen people had a boozy start to their day. It was like a foggy beach party. But without the sand. And the music. Thanks to all who attended, you made the weeks of organising almost worth while. Cindy Carmarthen, Bar Manager, The Blind Badger Pub & Venue
