Just A Few Day’s Left... 

...To release your inner mixologist!  Can you craft a drink that will capture the spirit of TheFloatingRumShack.com?  Perhaps you’ve a mind to make a RumDood.com or serve up a RumConnection.com – or perhaps you’re super creative and can create three different drinks that represent each of the websites...  Stranger things have happened!

In a major first for TheFloatingRumShack.com, we’ve been given sole access to a key figure in the world of rum!  We are not talking about being part of a crowd enjoying a lecture – it’s a one to one experience, with me asking the questions!  Heaven help us...  Just how is this going to turn out?

May's Rum Club at Trailer Happiness saw TheFloatingRumShack.com AWOL!  Well, actually we were still State side as we were looking to head back from Miami, after enjoying the Rum Renaissance Festival.  It's always a shame to miss a Rum Club - as there's generally only about 10 or 12 in a whole year!

We heard all about it from our friend's - but the chance to read about it can be yours as we've seen it's been written up online!

Henley Get's Tiki'ed...   

For those of you who don’t live in the Home Counties you might not even be aware that the Henley Royal Regatta will be taking place this year (2010) from the 30th June – 4th July.

Smatt’s Rum

The June rum club at Trailer Happiness produced several major discoveries for me, an apology (not a serious one though) and a happy outcome!

A Grown Up Trade Show? 

TheFloatingRumShack.com loves to learn new things every day.  For example the other day we were introduced to the term ‘linking strategist’.  A new one on me – but then I have very little in the way of marketing experience.  This learning experience was manifest as an email inviting me to write about a drinks trade show called Imbibe 2010 that is going to be running very soon.
