Hi y'all well this upcoming year is my big 40 and i dont think i would rather spend it with any other people than from this forum.Now it's ok it's not until May but thought would give plenty of notice for people to see if they can make it.My birthday is 10th and lucky enough it is a Friday so thinking that weekend could be a good time to meet.With a bit of luck we might actually get have some nice weather around then this year.If anyone is interested let me know and will get the ball rolling on sorting out somewhere for us to park and party people going 1. Doodles and Doodles wife 2.robmac 3.lotusanne 4.Firefox (if he remembers date ) 5.billieblue ( i hope) 6.millie (new grandchild permitting) 7.daisymini (Visiting hopefully) 8.moonshadow 9. therebelcamper (AA aproval pending of course ) 10. brewkit 11. daiboy 12. mini (maybe) 13. flyby (as long as not next to me ) 14. Rubbertramp (hopefully )

Hi Doodles glad you are back amongst us! Will definitely be there if I'm free, which is more than likely! Good to be back i hope you can make it Will start looking for places to stay soon so we can book with plenty of notice.If anyone has ideas throw them out there needs to be central to suit all.There is always the Brownlow arms which seems to have been a hit with people but im sure with a bit of looking i can find somewhere else equally as good if needed.

Right you lot of pissheads ( and i mean that in the nicest possible way ) im getting to work on a major brewing project and need to know what people's tipple is.I am going to make a special birtday stout that will put any pint of Guinness to shame thats my choice So what else would you like me to brew up ales,bitters,lagers,wine,vodka and my ginger beer is very popular i get people calling me for when next batch is on let me know as 5 months is a good amount of time to get things brewed and bottled/kegged with time to mature.

If you can do alcoholic ginger beer that would be great!
Or I have recipe so that I will knock up for you and the other guests:
One bottle of vodka. Cut and chop lot's of root ginger. Add to vodka along with some sugar syrup to taste. Add a little chilli and or lime and other sweet herbs for flavour Steep for several weeks.
Drain/strain the bits off if required and squeeze them to extract all the vodka (or leave them in to preference)
Add to taste, like cordial, to soda water.

Was it your Apple Vodka that Apache shared at Stonehenge last time we were there? If so can you make some more of that please. Anne - go for the apple vodka, you will love it
