Uncommon ridings

It's festival time in Jed. The border towns all have common ridings which involve riding horses and drinking life threatening amounts of alcohol.

Sometimes at the same time.

Jedburgh's festival is called the "Callants Festival" I'm sure I mentioned it a few posts back. There are rideouts to various destinations and at the end of it all on Saturday we have the border games. The day before that's called "Festival day" and we open at 9am to serve bacon rolls (and lots of drink of course) That night there's a party that goes on all night. We open at 6am to provide more bacon rolls and of course more booze.

This being our first season there are way too many variables for our liking. How much beer/spirits/food/disposable glasses? Haven't a clue. We'll see what happens.
