What happens on the day
The truck or trailer tends to draw a crowd, so we plan a spot with space for people to queue. We can serve in the rain, but guests will need somewhere covered. A late-September party in Westgate-on-Sea loses the light at about 7:00pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. A late-May event keeps its daylight until about 8:45pm.
