Vic 2015 Xmas Case Swap

[Grainer]

What date was it again??? hopefully it doesn't clash with my Masters Graduation day..phew 5th December works.. My graduation is the week after.. guess I gotta get my arse into gear and brew a beer for the swap.. !! still haven't started on the last swap beers !!

Might do a Dragon fruit Berliner weisse ?? ...

 

[AJ80]

Righty-ho gents..Two months out. We need to organise catering & accommodation.

I'm happy to bring a swag & sleep wherever (compared to sleeping in a Malaysian tea plantation on the side of a mountain with my feet jammed up against a tree to stop from slipping-down the hill, this will be a breeze!).

Since AJ80 did such a stirling job last time, I vote he does it again. :beerbang: Why screw with a well-established success?

I've got the donated marquee, tarps & lots of stuff left over from the winter case swap in Kinglake. Details TBA.

Hehe. Happy to consult with whoever feels like taking the reins on the food front - few lessons learned from last time I'd be happy to share.

Not playing this time AJ?

 

[AJ80]

Will be there with bells on Martin, but unfortunately have to make a pretty early exit at 530pm due to prior commitments (it's a busy time of the year!). planning to brew my swap beer this week if I can get my act together. If all goes well, it'll be my most out there swap brew yet...

 

[MartinOC]

OK, no problem...except it leaves us with a quest for a catering officer for the weekend....

Who's willing to put their hand-up for this one? 'Should be pretty simple - Spit roast & salads in rolls for the main chow-down. Warm weather doesn't require a lot..

 

[Mardoo]

KISS. Snags off the barbie. Some great butchers up there.

Hehe, he has done his time. It is time to pass the baton

You just HAD to bring it up didn't you...

Huh?? You mean salads?

OK, OK, I'll do salads if that's your beef/pork/chicken/buffalo/yak/snails... :huh:

 

[Yob]

You left out goat, I'm bringing a slow cooked goat thingy for rolls...

 

[MartinOC]

We have a winner/catering officer in Yob!

I love it when a plan comes together.

'Going to bed now...I feel like shit..

 

[Yob]

Not doing the whole.. No, just a component

 

[Black n Tan]

I am happy to help out, so I can bring pulled pork, rolls and coleslaw (man's salad).

 

[Grainer]

If I can make it which I think I can I can probably get wifey to cook something she will probably come along

 

[micbrew]

Yeah have to agree with Madhu ...snags in rolls ..some blinging salad wallah
brekky bacon n eggs ..breakfast of champions !!

So im guessing martin is in charge of incendiary / flare devices and general arsonist duties again

question about the shed etc
is there any room for small tent ..as I don't have a swag
is there toilets etc etc

just trying to work out accomadation etc etc

There is plenty of room in the shed top set up beds but there is no where that you could drive the tent pegs in. We are working with a gravel driveway and concrete floor in the shed. They is dedicatedly going to be toilets though.
Definately no incendiary or flares etc. Going out on a limb to host and don't want to draw too much attention to ourselves.
Pretty sure egg and bacon breakfast is a must. Pulled pork rolls and coleslaw sounds awesome. Maybe I could grab some fresh bakery rolls and we cook a variety of BBQd meats to fill it.

 

[MartinOC]

I think we have a catering plan. Nice & simple & sourced locally.

Don't worry, no flares or bangs this time 'round. How about a brazier for later in the day for everyone to stand around? BYO wood?

Looks like everything is coming together. Me and Patto have booked into the honeymoon suite at the echuca hilton. We'll be over there friday night. So can help setting things up. Let us know.
