Hi Rob, everyone,
what an excellent idea. I'd hope to come along, work permitting. Would probably bring a tent and find a local campsite.
Cheers
Kev

Well , we've watched the qualifying right through so Stuart and I went off to our local very small brewery to taste some samples

Yes -- you can actually do this for now't at the Chiltern Brewery at Terrick

Ended up choosing two . A 3.56% which is very hoppy plus a 4.3% which is a touch heavier .
It has to be delivered before the event so's it can settle -- h'mmm

Of course it will need to be sampled to make sure it's ok before the 8th Aug
There'll be wine for the girls in the unlikely event that they don't drink beer

You will need to leave it to settle for about a week ideally to get the best out of it!! (i have a real ale drink problem

)

There's an old joke there....
"All Ale's have been passed by the Management"
Looking forward to it Rob
Is it poly-pins or barrels you've ordered ?
Any danger we'll run out early ??

Difficult to know as no more have commited as yet

We'll have plenty at the present numbers but if people just turn up without letting me know , there wont be enough

I assumed quite a lot might fancy a drive out with a ' point ' to it at the end -- as opposed to -- ' a thrash about the countryside and home again '

Arrival ,by the way , is morning whenever you can get here but food/drink will be at lunch around 1-00 pm ok guys

then on until you're bored
If those who don't drive home in the afternoon or evening fancy tenting over night , I'm sure we'll be able to move cars around to make space

We'll have a 16 feet x 8 feet EZE-UP with sides available so provided you bring a sleeping bag

and I put a sheet down --- any change of plans regarding driving home on the day could probably be sorted at the last minute , if too much has been consumed

. A lot of cars will leave earlier I suspect so there'll be room for tents plus the big awning

That'd be fine Alec , come whenever you like . If you're moving off at 2-00pm just don't get boxed in

Leave it in the front drive area
