I'll bring-along:

1. The box of mysteries from the last swap & a swag of tea bags. Contents TBA.
2. Curly's big gas bottle (probably my own too).
3. Veggie soup.
4. A couplea hundred Kg of malt. Details to be worked-out with Mofox.
5. About a Kg of Columbus. Details to be worked-out with Mofox.
6. A trailer-load of firewood & brazier.
7. Sleeping gear.
8. A sense of humour.

Edit: I did mention food in there somewhere...
 
I have good news and bad news. Bad news is the pork shoulder I bought was actually upper arm, so it's not as good as shoulder would have been. Still be tasty after a day of beers though... Just not as good as normally is.

Good news is that I got a refund for it, so it's free!

Free food does taste the best.
 
I'll be there Saturday.

I'll update the thread tonight when I get home but I'll be bringing:

1. Hummus and dry crackers.
2. Batch of eggplant curry with rice
3. Beer engine and a keg or two of Mild.
4. Some frozen yeasts to give away.
 
I'm looking like coming Saturday and Sunday instead of Friday. Tho I'm happy to be counted for Fri-Sun and pay for that, then if plans change no-ones out of pocket.
I'll also see how the food looks late into the week of the swap then offer up something where there's a shortfall.

Are we using the spit still?

Might be easier to not use it this one mate unless there are any objections? If someone can get it and sort the meat that'd work with say some lamb for lunch. But I'm equally as happy to just get some more meats like burger patties and snags to increase what's on offer for Sat lunch?

Thoughts?
PS. Russ - are you confirmed for any of the meals with your attendance or still up in the air?
 
I'm easy any which way. I unfortunately, do not have the time to organise any meat. Perhaps just a simple BBQ is the way to go.

After much discussion with SHMBO I have got permission to come Saturday as long as I leave at daybreak on Sunday with the spit as she wants to use it (gets used very rarely and she wants to use it on the same weekend!).

Now there is every chance that it might still have to attend because I need to use it as an excuse to drop by on Friday :) You know, got to have the spit there ready to go for Saturday :) The likely hood of me getting to come both Friday and Saturday nights to sleep isn't good :) But hey, on the positive side, I get to come for more than a few hours! Hoorah!

So yes, short version, not fussed about the spit, and I'm confirmed for Saturday lunch and Saturday dinner!
 
You mean you have given HER permission to use the spit on Sunday, yes? Lest we judge.
A BBQ can always be the fallback option, won't be too much trouble to stumble to the shops and load up on snags and veggie burgers if we don't get it arranged prior.
 
Yeah that's what I meant :)

What is this "veggie burger" of which you speak? Sounds like the work of the devil.
