I have just finalised details with South Bank IT today. It looks like it will be pretty good on the food side of things. Lunch will be hot BBQ style food, rather than just sandwiches. Morning and Afternoon beers will have savoury snacks rather than sweet items (a request from last conference).
SBIT is happy for us to have a post-conference session to help clean up a few of the remaining beers. This will be from 5:00 - 5.45. After that, those who are having the dinner can remain for more beers and a great dinner. The menu has been finalised and it is:
[SIZE=medium]1 - Saison - Salmon gravlax, dill, crème fraische, capers
2 - Heffasaurus (A really big Hef) - Seared Scallops with chorizo crisps on fennel and orange[/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]3 - Belgian Tripel and Pumpkin Ale- Turkey breast rolled with pear, craison and macadamia nut stuffing.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]4 - Chocolate Porter - Cherry cheesecake[/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]We need to confirm numbers for the dinner very early next week, so if you are thinking of going, please book your tickets over the weekend so you don't miss o[/SIZE][SIZE=medium]ut.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]The Spiegelau Glass session has been more popular than I expected and there are only 3-4 tickets left. They will go this weekend, so book it as well.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=medium]More Freebies - Super What Not is throwing in a voucher (had some good beers there last night!), so that's at least 4 good beer venues that are throwing cash your way. Also looks like ALL INN Brewing, who are launching at Scratch on Sunday afternoon, have got their license in time to provide us with some beers as well. I think we will break the 576 Litres of beer we had last time. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=medium]See you there![/SIZE]
