Safety! Some HB'ers have been known to "surf" on them...

If you'd like to come up the mountain for tomorrows swap, you'd be welcome. No requirement to bring 24 bottles for the actual 'swap', but a good chance to meet us and join in. There's usually the odd keg or three on the go, and you can camp the night on the farm.

Let me know if you're interested, and I'll send you the mud-map.

Finished brewing for the day and wanting directions to join the TooSober group at this years case swap. Some directions please

Currently dipping crusty bread in roger's evoo and dukkah, remembering some of the funnier moments from yesterday.
Things I learnt: Courtney Barnett is literally Paul Kelly
Things Aydos learnt: fire burns
Things Ben learnt: chilli sauce burns on the way in and out

That's for a great night all, another successful case swap for the year!

1. The aformentioned Courtney Barnett thingy

2. Roger's top hospitality

3. Some very nice beers

4. The bastard cockroach that crawled up my shorts leg and woke me.

I have a block of land near Stanthorpe. Happy to host a swap. From what I understand, July is locked in at Perry's, so we can do next Christmas at mine if people are keen. The consensus was earlier in December to avoid the crazy busy weekends.

Had some of Roger's olive oil with dinner yesterday, frickin fantastic. Well done that man.

From what I understand, July is locked in at Perry's

It tends to end up there but there's nothing set in stone. We've ended up with a pattern of "in Brisbane" in July and "somewhere else" at Xmas for a while which I find works well.

At the end of the day whoever starts the thread and has their hand up tends to win.
