Just me casually throwing a wee spanner in the prospective works here..... ;)
Anyone up for bringing a wee bit of regional food/drink to the upcoming meet at the Lakes?
I know that there will be malt (ask me how I know ... ::) ) but....
Thinking on an idea from another thread. What about your local micro brewery? I know that there are more than a few on here that like their ale (and thats not Wife Beater or other mass produced stuff) that would be willing to share? I know I'm more than willing to bring some fresh from my 'local' - http://www.fyfebrewery.co.uk/ - so, anyone else interested/willing?

Now I really am gutted I can't make it... I always have to sample some Local Ale when travelling ::) ::) :'( :'( :'(

Frog Island brewery in Northampton has some good beers
-
That's settled, then. A detour via either Triple FFF or the Hog's back brewery on the cards, methinks. :y

Pity I can't make it I could bring some of my home brew it makes you hear colours and see sounds [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

That reminds me. I have a failed home brew in the garage from about 6 months ago - now buried under bits of Westfield. I wonder what that tastes like now. ::)

Oh God, I remember a pint of duck! truly bloody horrible!

Rhymney Brewery, now based in Dowlais. They have a fantastic pint called Hobby Horse. If anyone is going from these parts (Johnnycool - Sixstring - Sethsmate) they could bring a sample. Brewery owned by a friend of mine from a long time ago called Steve Evans. Drink it if you dare, has a kick like a Hobby Horse.
You have been warned.

If only I could make it.... :'(
Oh well, at least I won't have to decide between Williams Brothers, Mansefield or Harviestoun. I like 'em all!

Sorry... can't hear you... glug, glug, glug.
What'd'ya say... oh sorry, I've just finished the last one :D
That's one of my particular favourites! What a shame a 40 pint poly-pin only keeps for 10-14 days 8-)
-
.. of course the next question is how much to bring. How many real ale drinkers do we have, and how many are bringing beer? Just in case we end up with a 40 pint polypin each. ;)
Actually.. 40 pints.. 20 each night. ::)

;D ;D seeing smells would be very handy by the time this lot are finished.
have local emergency services been put on stand by? St.Johns on site perhaps?
-
Fellers......all this talk of warm beer...........what you REALLY need is Pitchfork and some of his Zider!!!
THEN you will see sounds and smell things you never smelt before!!!

I'm sure DLK will have his pink nurses uniform to hand if that counts Chris. ;D ;D

Hmm. Now you mention it. Could give enough warning to run for cover, perhaps...? :y

I'm sure Billy Connolly did a sketch on "what if farts were coloured"
It was hilarious. Never laughed so much in my life!

Well, if you end up with any left over... Failing that, I'll look you up next time we're down at Alton Towers ;)

And Hotel21, was a pleasure to meet you mate - apologies again for arriving late, persuit car style! :-[
Great to be able to put a face to the name, hopefully next time we'll get a better chance to exchange GSi Carlton experiences! Like, how many knuckles have you lost trying to get the viscous fan off? ;D
Oh, and this is my 250th post... yeee-haaa... only joined 2˝ years ago!

Well I'll be bringing some of this :y:

My favorite tipple. I've had a bottle for Christmas for the last 5 years and I love it :y
-

Will do. :y

You'd be welcome, of course. :y I should point out that Alton, Hampshire is about 180 miles South of Alton Towers, though. ;)
Nevertheless, I have left Mrs. KW with instructions to peruse the brewery shop at triple FFF in her lunch break today so let's see what fruit she returns with. :y

IF and a big IF I can get my starter motor sorted for the weekend the only thing Grimsby can offer is fish,ASBO's,car crime and arson at Matalan.
Which one should I bring if my car is working? ;D ;D ;D
