The Royal Forest Inn, affectionately known as 'The Foresters' has recently won the CaskMarque award for its real ale quality. Deb from The Foresters said "We have worked really hard to gain this award. It is nationally recognised and looks at beer quality, temperature, taste and clarity. We are proud of this achievement and it goes to show what can be achieved." Find more information at the CaskMarque website www.cask-marque.co.uk.

18.1.09 - First Wii night goes down a storm!!

The first Wii night at the Foresters went down very well with the locals and now looks like it will be a regular fixture every third Sunday of the month. We had a go at tennis and 10 pin bowling and spent many hours trying to beat the high score. In the 10 pin bowling Dan Prout excelled with a score of 277. He tells me that his score should have been better but we put this down to the quantity of Strongbow and black that he had consumed!! Next time we will try and move on to Super Mario Kart and see if we can be any better at that. Next Wii night will be February 15th at around 8.30. All are welcome for this evening of fun.
