Shame about the rain, but it's been a great afternoon down at the Ouseburn watching the duck race!

Well this sounds like something I'm gonna be absolutely gutted to have missed...

It was packed, like. Good atmosphere, rained a bit, sunny a bit, the kids loved it, I got beer, what's not to like 😊

It's an annual thing so come down next year!
