QLD Christmas case swap - Dec 5th, 2015

[antiphile]

Ok, Ben. Let's pretend (and remember we're only pretending :unsure: ) I'm an absolute idiot. From Brissy, it looks as though it's better to go through Toowoomba (down Ruthven St ?) rather than over the Gap. Is that right?

Then, south to Pittsworth and turn left toward Felton. And at about 15 km past Pittsworth, keep going until I smell the farts of you guys (I suspect I won't smell the lamb on the spit until much later in the afternoon).

Am I getting close or should I just book a room at the Greenmount?

 

[Ciderman]

[antiphile]

Looking at the posts, I think you're bloody close. Of course, I realise that means it may costl a few more bucks for the lovely lamb (and the rolls and all the other stuff that deserves to go with it etc etc), But there is absolutely no way that will stop me (or anyone else, I suspect) from enjoying a good country feed. I really don't want any of you guys to be out of pocket just because some people aren't able to attend for whatever reason.

See ya soonish.

[Aydos]

I have NFI how to get there but I'll be looking out for the smoke signals.

Beers will be bottled up this week in glass for all the newbies to the swap!

I'll be there around 2 ish I reckon because I finish work at 12. My keg might he a bit hot by then but it's all I can do since I won't have a fridge to put it in while I'm working.

Just a suggestion that everyone bring some snacks to contribute. I'm guessing that it'll be a long way to the nearest corner store.

Also stuff for breakfast

 

[Liam_snorkel]

will bring snacks as per usual & a box of All-Bran

 

[antiphile]

Top idea guys, and good forward thinking.

Oooh. A quick question. If I were to bring plenty of eggs and bacon, are there any facilities (like a BBQ or similar) that may be suitable? Not to disrespect Liam, but my ancestors didn't spend thousands of millennia crawling to the top of the food chain to eat like a chook! B)

 

[benken25]

I cant figure out group message so i will post directions here. i am guessing everyone knows how to get to Toowoomba. follow James street through Toowoomba until you get to Anzac Avenue, turn left and follow it out of town should be signs saying Pittsworth. take the 3 turn off to Pittsworth Helens Street. follow that straight out past the golf course. keep following it about 15kms. the property name is Glenorminston its a set of cattle yards and a grid on your left. (i will put a star picket with a couple of cans of bitter on top to mark the spot :super: ) if you reach the bridge crossing the hodgson creek you have gone too far. message me on 0437466344 if you get lost. plan is to kick off between 1 an 2

Ahhh, but you obviousl;y haven't had Liam's balls. The AllBran is to facilitate passing of said balls.

 

[Parks]

Pretty sure Warwick is the only one to have had the pleasure of Liam's balls...

Angus' balls of sticky pleasure on the other hand!

Ahhb yeah, that's right. Sorry, a couple Pine trees and a belgian pale have interfered with coherent thought. Probably helped contriubte to elsewhere mentined hop snafu as well :beerbang: .

 

[madpierre06]

As you were.

 

[angus_grant]

Will be doing a double batch of balls. I am also thinking about doing a squeeze bottle of sauce so it can be applied to other food stuffs.

Or to Liam's balls for Warwick. What happens in Toowoomba!! h34r:

Thinking of bringing some bacon-wrapped water-chestnut snacks. It may be heresy but I think they may be better than the sticky balls.

 

[benken25]

I might make some more salsa i think aydos enjoyed it last time :icon_drool2:

 

[antiphile]

Well, it looks as though we're on the downhill run:

Swap beers OK
2 doz eggs & 1 kg bacon OK
Sleeping bag OK
Camping chair OK
Esky and beer glass OK
Extremely dark welding glasses so I never have to discover the truth about Liam's balls OK

Do I need condoms or do we throw caution to the wind and pray no-one has any communicable diseases?

Edited: And I did manage the pistol licence in time. So MadFrenchie, I suggest you refrain from asking whether that's a gun in my pocket.
