With 57 orders being picked up on the day, is anyone interested in downing a few beers somewhere afterward?
 
well G&G have a nice selection of beers for sale at site. I think a few will be bought and drunk there.

Not to be a party-pooper, but I'm fairly certain John can't legally allow this. A 50ml sample of homebrew on tap as demonstration is far from a mob of blokes purchasing and consuming beers on premise. Parking lot.. now that's another story :icon_drunk: .

i was meaning the parking lot. although as to whether grog can be consumed on premises would be dependant on his liquor licence. i would assume its a take away licence in which case we might be doing our consumption outside of the store.

Back to the point of this thread...

Less than 2 hours left for additions (space for 2 bags), or changes. I will be sending John the final order just after noon. I will at somepoint today PM out the bank account details for Direct deposit for each of your orders. When you do make the deposit, can you please mark the decription with your username for tracking payments.

We'll sort out the logistics for the pick up shortly, and if there is anyone willing to offer their assistance with the organisation of distribution on the day, please let me know.

Thanks for the stella effort Maple

... speaking as someone who has organised one of these bulk buys before, there are many hours work put in to make this happen.

Now as a small token of our appreciation why don't we all but a couple of extra $$ in the payment.

Hope this is not going to screw up your tracking system too much Maple :unsure:

Chris,
Thanks for the kind words and thoughts, but consider it a service for the greater good, and supporting our AHB community. A great group of people and a solid resource that has helped me over the years, this is my way of giving back.

oh, and yes, it would screw up my tracking. If anyone has any urge to thank me in this way, please consider hitting the donate button up the top. All this was made possible by dane and without our support would cease to exist.

Thanks folks. I think for the next update we'll put the outstanding, the list is getting pretty extensive....

Maple
 
Well being only just over a week away, lets start to sort out the logistics for the day.

PICK UP will be between 9:15AM and 1PM Saturday 13th. (I say 9:15 allowing for the pallets to be moved out and organised), The Shop does not open until 9am, pleae plan accordingly.

With 50 odd BB'ers, could be a bit busy at times so if we could perhaps spread ourselves over the morning for arrival, that would make it slightly easier.

If anyone is having another BB'er pick their grain up for them, can you please let me know (Rich, got your PM, cheers)

Regarding splits, I don't really want to know, I'll leave it to the purchaser of the bag and for all the splitsters to organise amoungst themselves(remember to bring bags/containers/scales though)

Remember on the day, we are guests of G&G who have offered this service and their premise for our benefit. They are a business, and there are several other businesses operating in the complex. I'm sure this goes without saying, but let's show the respect deserved. (sorry to preach to the choir, but had to be said)

I think that covers it. Anyting I've missed..??

Maple
 
i want to see people measuring split bags of grain on scales!

Righto BBers you've been given the logistic outlines for the day. I'll be helping Maple out on the day so you'll see the Army man come out in me if things start to go to sh*t.

If theres a lot of people trying to get their grain sorted when you arrive, why not wander inside G&G and have a browse or buy any other supplies you need. Remember that G&G will have a AG brewing demo going during the day. always a good way to kill some time. They also sell nice cold bottled craft beer.

Re split bags. As Maple said, To make life easy, it would be preferable to give the bags to the people who ordered them and then for that person to take the bag and organise with their splitees. We dont want to be mucking around with the logistics of bag splits. I think thats fair enough.
*of course to the people im bag splitting with, of course i'll be involved with our bag splits :) *

Make sure you've paid way before Saturday as Maple has to pay up front and he shouldnt be out of cash. no payment = no grain

See you all Saturday.
