Welcome to this weeks episode of This is Rammy. This week I caught up with Clint from House of Beer which is based on Silver Street.

Clint explains that his background wasn’t in beer, he’s been a teacher for a large majority of his life, but the teaching profession now, just isn’t what it used to be, there are pressures from external factors that detract from the teaching he wanted a change, and that change came in the form of being his own boss and running his own beer shop.

Welcome to another episode of This is Rammy, your weekly podcast where I talk about what’s going on around Ramsbottom, some would say it’s a bit like What’s on in Rammy but without the arguments.

Well we’ve gone “all in” on the potty training for our son since we started last week, he’s done better than I expected. We’ve completely stopped putting him in nappies during the day now and he is learning to tell us when he needs the toilet so that’s the biggest progress in our house.

Welcome to another episode of This is Rammy, your weekly source for all things Ramsbottom related. Happy Easter! All going well this was released at 10am on Sunday as usual, however with the clocks doing that stupid thing they still do it could have been 9am.

We had some lovely weather on Good Friday with lots of people heading up Holcombe Hill for the yearly egg rolling event, followed by some blustery and chilly weather on Saturday. If you’ve been up nice and early for the church service on Holcombe Hill led by Andy too, then thanks for joining me, however I expect you’ve probably slept in, what with the clocks changing.

Welcome to another episode of This is Rammy, this week we’ve had more dodgy weather with another storm coming in and battering the North West, this time it was storm Gertrude. I was out on Saturday and saw the fishmonger on Ramsbottom Market having a tough time of it in the wind with their signs blowing all over the place.

There’s just very little you can do to secure them in such strong winds. As well as the strong wind we’ve had downpours of hail and thunder and lightning.

You can’t say we don’t have some dramatic weather up here in Ramsbottom, storm chasers need not look very far.
