All right guys, we are trying to get me there, Just trying to organize someone to look after the kids on Sunday arvo as we are about triple booked and I can't see me driving hope at the crack of dawn by myself. Hate to be a PITA but may have some better news tomorrow.

Here's hoping.

You wont regret it, it has been 5 months in the making.....

 

[clean brewer]

Anyone with a trailer or ute willing to give me a hand to get more wood over to Squire's for the smoker? My trailer has been stolen by the FIL (pissed off long story) <_< .

Anyway if anyone on the Southside or even the North could help me that would be greatly appreciated.

Chap Chap

Chappo, I spent the Afternoon cutting some Firewood aswell to bring down with the Bread Mixer and Flour, f$%* its a busy week getting ready...

I have 49 hard plastic gel filled POLAR PACK ice bricks to Give away at this event.
If people are interested just post and I will bring them along.

These are much better than the water filled ones most people have.

Bust a gut Gavo, there really is no way to describe a QLD swap, it's just something you have to experience. There is no commercial example anywhere in the world that could cut it stacked up against a QLD swap.

$30 plus some travel costs to experience some of the best and weirdest beers beers you will ever taste, fantastic food, serious beer talk with serious brewers mixed with some of the craziest antics from the best bunch of crazy bastards in existence. All happening at Sqyre Manor, probably one of the best locations for this kind of get together, all hosted by Bruce and Renae who put in countless hours before and after ensure that it's an experience you will never forget. This is why people travel thousands of K's to experience a QLD swap. Hope you can make it, hate the fact that I can't make it this year, didn't get the clearance from the specialist that I was hoping for today, but will be there again next year.

Cheers,

Screwy

Sqyre

Will there be enough $$$ left over to get a 10Kg bag of bread flour ( $20 ). ( 10kg should be enough, but we may need more )..Bonj & I will be on dough duty.

If we dont eat all the bread, we can always take some home.

Ummm... Stu... when and where were you hopeing to bake this BREAD you speak of??
Its just this year i'm looking at pre-preparing pretty much everything the day before and restricting access to the kitchen/house during the event. And when you do it may also be an issue too as there is a few things that need to be in the oven at certain times..
And my oven is lucky to fit a decent sized chook in it..let alone 10kg of expanding dough.. :blink:

Sqyre...

Sqyre..everything is under controll

We wont need to be inside, making the dough is easy enough done outside, actually it will be better cause it will be nice and warm, which will help it rise.

We shall also be making the pizza bases...none of the store bought pizza base crap

The bread will be going in the champion smoker/fire/camp ovens/next to relno's eaters etc.... No need to use the house at all..

Now I had better go find my camp oven

[bonj]

Stu, I was thinking it might be easier to bake the bread at home the morning of the swap... I can supply a 5kg bag of flour and I don't mind baking some baguettes or something the morning of the swap.

I wish I lived in QLD, it sounds like you guys have the swaparty nailed down.. but how would it stack up to say Burning man? I reckon there are alot of similarities

There's always planes Maple, not too late

As for it being like Burning Man well, there was this one incident, but we've agreed not to talk about that

I have to bake at Sqyres, as I will be travelling all morning

Roll etc wont take long to cook, dough wont take much to do either...It will stop me from consuming large amounts of beer and talking crap during the day <_<

As to the quantity, 5kg of flour can make 40 baguettes or 80 small baguettes/dinner rolls, which with the other food, should be plenty.

 

[bonj]

also, i don't know what work surface we'll have to work the dough without access to the house... :huh:
