Why not drive the Morrie Ute up to the Sunny Coast, geez if you still want to drink beer after visiting with InCider, Batz, Bindi, Tidal Pete and me then:

**** Sqyre. Only 7 taps working. WTF have you been doing man! Told you guys we should have gone somewhere else Anyway Sqyre, we'll just work around the 7 taps. Don't you worry!!!

Here's the updates since this morning - some already done by Sean, Derrick etc...

bconnery - were the changes made below correct?
AndrewQLD - Robbie Williams? WTF? The Scissor Sisters are playing Swap night - not RW. Man, if we see you on TV dancing to the Scissor Sisters, you are gone! (I'll still miss you though. One session with you has not been enough
Old_Dog - Done old son! Iam going to tell EVERYONE at the swap who you had a spa with in the Bermudas and how well you cook! You better be at the next swap to dispell the interpretations that all will make from this - lol!
Hoops - Have changed to Confirmed. Is Hoops attending on the day? i.e. Does he need food?

Out of State Special Guest

Ducatiboy - I have FNQBunyip staying Friday night and one or two others dropping in for the rest of the week. The Bat Cave/Sunshine Coast is a must-do but if it's in the wrong direction, too far away and you can get down to the Gold Coast, feel free to rock up at my joint. If both these places are too far away maybe some of the Brissy guys can entertain you. Don't worry if they don't. I mean they didn't even show up for Batz or Pete - lol.

[browndog]

Unfortunately my second planned beer for the bar at the swap (Pumpy's English Bitter) while tasting OK, has a nasty case of chill haze. Lucky I have two backups, one is a Sierra Navada Celebration Ale and the other a 102IBU Chinook and Amerillo concoction that I am sure Pat (hopwimp) would love. Seems I'll make the call on friday night after a sampling or two.

4 sleeps to go :super:


cheers

Bit of chill haze never hurt anyone,I am sure it would make no difference to this collection of brewers either :super:

[winkle]

Arrggh, count me out, too many pre-christmas disasters to sort out, pool pump shat itself, cars brakes are totally farked, teenage son has birthday on Friday/Saturday, and all this is before the wifes' objections are looked at. :blink: Well there is always next year, have a good one in that wonderful shed/pub :beerbang:

 

[sqyre]

Sorry to hear you cant make..winkle



Browndog, wait till you see , taste, taste again(but in reverse), then have your body reject, my brew and you will relise a little chill haze is nothing..bring it its all good.

Hey Brad,

Is Duncan still interested?

patch,

Dont think so, He has his little boy so probably wont be able to stay the night. will ask him.

Brad

 

[frogman]

Have managed to collect about 25 medical quality re-freezeble gel ice packs to give away at the Qld case swap.

Tested in my party system, 4 were still frozen solid after 36 hours.

Best thing about them is NO MELTED ICE.

 

[Crazy]

Mines all done ready for the swap also. Just add ice. None of those fancy taps though just a Brumby and a pluto.

Derrick

She'll be getting dressed up even more (or maybe less!) on saturday night! :wub:
