The Rain Came
There is nothing like a bit of rain to freshen things up after a long, hot summer and clear the air a little. Our air must be terribly clear by now. I think we can probably stop with the rain. This weekend, more than ever before, the rain has been an issue. There were...
The Epic Toastie Pitch
We survived our first music festival last weekend, and came away from Summer Sundae bruised (I walked into the hand sink) and tired, but otherwise still standing. Despite what was arguably a terrible, terrible pitch we managed to scrape together a little profit, a...
Summer Sundae
This weekend the Jabberwocky will be at Summer Sundae Weekender, serving up our hottest, most delicious toasties and trying to prefect the art of sleeping-while-making-toasties. It will be a massive festival, the largest we have been at so far, and hopefully the...

Congratulations, you have bought your first food van and are well on the way to making your food-based fortune. All you need to do now is pop it on a street corner somewhere, cock the flap and watch as the masses swarm to your hatch and purchase food like the...
Street Food in Cuba
Certain parts of the Caribbean are renowned for their cuisine. Cuba is renowned from rum, coffee and cigars, and that pretty much explains why they didn't have time for food. I would have to regretfully inform you that even while almost all of Cuban life is conducted...
Toasties to the Rescue
When we last left the Jabberwocky the Beast was sitting forlornly in the car park at our garage, waiting to see if he would ever move again under his own steam. The prop shaft was away in Coventry undergoing surgery and we were still recovering from the wreck of...
