Summertime was welcomed in style when a Somerset pub played host to a cider and tobacco festival at the weekend.
Licensee Lucy Davies-Coward who runs the Bell Inn, in Buckland Dinham, offered a selection of 32 real Somerset ciders as well as cigars "as big as your arm" and "mountains of Snuff" at the first Buckland Cider and Tobacco Festival.
Customers raised hundreds of pounds for The Royal British Legion by drinking more than 1000 pints of cider from objects as diverse as watering cans and hats, while smoking in the pub's purpose-built wooden "Cigar Shack".
Lucy said: "This is a British first and celebrates the start of the good weather for smokers that have suffered outside for the last months of wind, cold and rain."
The Bell Inn also hosted the first of the year's International Auto Jumble and Car Boot sale.
Lucy added: "The day was for enthusiasts to come together to talk cars, drink cider, have a good smoke, and heaven forbid, actually enjoy themselves. Something the government is trying to stop."
