Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our Victorian dead.


Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
To his full height. On, on, you noblest Victorians.


Be copy now to men of grosser blood,
And teach them how to brew. And you, good yeomen,
Whose limbs were made in Victoria, show us here

The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
That you are worth your brewing; which I doubt not;


I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge

Cry 'God for Beer, Victoria, and Saint George!'


OK, so who's going to host the next one??? Right now, I'm guessing it's a toss-up between Whiteferrets' place in Shepparton & Droid's place in Gippsland.....?

We've got a year to plan it.....
 
OMG!

I say white ferrets, because I'm scared, 12 months aint long!

Ed> but I will happily go with the majority
 
Just as well. Got to keep up the traditions lest the young ones forget the old ways.

Yeah, but Yob's already got this year's Xmas swap in-hand, so I'm looking a year ahead.

Hehe. The one you just attended was arranged at the last Xmas swap 6 months ago & it all came together, so it's definitely doable.

I'll arrange the T-Shirts (if you guys can stand more bastardised Shakespeare..... :ph34r: ).

Hanging-on desperately to those Victorian roots of yours, Manticle..... :p
 
I spoke to Wayne about it, he was tentatively keen to host, space isn't an issue, would be good to get a northern one in, the Northern contingent has been pretty stoic and it'd be great to repay in kind :)
 
Agreed, as long as Wayne is up for it.

If not, we all bale on Gippsland & paint the town red! :drinks:
 
What about someone from the Western suburbs? Anyone out that way want to host one? I'm partial to Shepparton myself. Besides, ease Droid into the mothership...don't want to scramble his circuits.
 
Bummock by the bay, Bummock on the plains? Ok tentatively putting my hand up. A Tarp between the shed and the house should be enough in case of rain.
 
Don't want to turn away for a moment and miss out... comeon everyone is thinking it :)
