Signs Promoting the 'Drink of Satan'

The silly season is with us now and this story reported earlier in the UK press did make me smile. Organsers of a beer festival at Beaconsfield Rugby Club at the weekend are both bemused and angry following the removal of signs advertising the event allegedly by a woman accusing them of promoting alcohol - 'the drink of Satan'. Around 600 people attended the three day festival which was organised to raise funds to convert nearby farmland into new rugby pitches for the over-subscribed club. The local paper put out an appeal for the woman to reveal her identity – and within minutes a woman explained that she wanted to keep people away from the beer festival because alcohol 'is the drink of Satan'.

Jean Dean, one of the festival organisers, was furious accusing the woman of losing customers for the event which was designed to raise money to help more people young and old to enjoy sport and fellowship. She said: " In a society where so much good work falls to so few, the last thing the community needs is opinionated people who are only concerned with their beliefs and viewpoints, spoiling the efforts of those trying to do something useful to the greater good of society. Dear lady, I hope you are very pleased with yourself."
