Qld Xmas In July 2007 - Case Swap

[PistolPatch]

Just dropped in for a visit here and what do I find?

Three serious posts in a row.

HTFU!

I'll be back to check again in 50 posts and I expect there to be no more votes on the poll (20 is way too many for a QLD thread,) no more copying of the list (that's just too easy,) and no more logistical posts (where's the surprise in that?)

I am very dissapointed

(Anyway the page before looked good and had pics and funny stuff and everything. Might go and have a looky there )

OMG! I just saw the post count - 141!!!!

Didn't we crack 700 or more on the Xmas Swap?

I was going to add this as an edit to my last post but how unhelpful and selfish would that be?

Put me on the list as a reserve. Reserve poster that is :blink:

I'll go and do some historical checks on posting figures for QLD threads and get back to you. In the meantime, you know what to do. 141 - WTF?

Have you even nominated a Swap Disorganiser yet? You know, the bloke who makes sure everyone goes home with at least seven or more of the same beers?

BTW, don't use Brad. I tried to train him up but, even still, every beer I got was different. Mind you that was only two beers so at least some of the training must have sunk in.

:blink:

Now, now Pat - why organise something in advance when you can bugger it up at the last minute? Its the Queensland way of planning.

I bags running the swap this year, my god, if I can build aeroplanes I can make sure blokes go home with every beer execpt their own. I'm gonna go write the algorythems now.

cheers

Browndog


HTF do you spell algorythms anyway?

Give me a yell if you would like to collaborate :lol:

I think the key is everybody needs to stick their bottle label on their milk crate (box etc). Then everyone knows which box is theirs and Tony knows not to put a bottle of their own in that box.

...make sense

 

[browndog]

OK that's it me anf Jye are the case swap monitors

cheers

I think the key is to sort out the swap BEFORE we all get pissed, but I could be wrong

Whats this before business Andrew... we're not even aloud a few roadies on the way there?

Only if you don't stuff it up.
Browndog and Jye, putting their reputations on the line, onya :beerbang:

Cheers

How about a koala stamp and a Hogshead sticker.

 

[TidalPete]

As Tidalpete can never have one of these at his place,I would like to nominate him as case swap monitor On ya Pete !

Thank goodness for good old Tony & Jye. :beerbang:
Thought that I would be missing out on valuable drinking time here. I give up, it's yours fellas. :super:

Just a thought though --- I think that now we have all agreed on using PET bottles, putting your number on the lids (As well as having labels) will make it easier for the swap monitors to sort things out ASAP. For example --- I am No 10 on the list so I will put "10" on every bottle cap. How easy is that?

:beer:

 

[browndog]

Pete, you are an ideas man mate, I like it


cheers

Browndog

 

[InCider]

So as per TPete's suggestion, let's write down our number on our bottles (I bags 69 of course!) and rember to label our 'milkcrate style' poly crates. I got my crates from a 'mate'.


maybe flouro shirts for Jye & Browndog as swap monitors?

 

[Ross]

If you include a beer for yourself (like NSW do), it makes sorting & distributing a breeze, as every selection is the same.

Cheers Ross

The bloody wobbly boot hasn't got enough bacon in it, so I'll either try again or do Screwtops SIRA (yum).
