I'd suggest anyone who brings a beer not on the list has to buy a round for everyone.
And conversely, anyone who doesn't bring a beer that they list must buy a round ;D

To compensate for having to drink all beers brought those who do bring beers must buy 18 year old whiskey to cleanse the palate. :D

I can't be at this unfortunately as I am in the Morehampton clinic the day after getting a small procedure and I don't want to go in there with a stinking hangover, which would no doubt be the result of an evening in the LC.

Have a good time lads, I know I did the last time apart from not being able to play pool due to extreme drunkenness.

There's a lot of tension in drumcondra. A load of bad gear hit the streets this morning. Shootings and retaliation expected.

No I think they were left in the LC not the taxi - just waiting on Gerry to get in to see if he put them away somewhere for us so fingers crossed!

Panic over. They had them in the LC so IsMise collected them just there.

Oh, Delzep he has your tea strainers as well that you left there.

Yea, thanks for highlighting my "apparent" drunken amnesia ColinC  :-[
there was never any panic, i deliberately left them behind for Gerry to cool them in his freezer overnight.... i was afraid they might have been infected with that awful aroma intermittenly permeating the lounge area...  ;D
Great night alright lads, shocking amount of bling been worn by all those in the winners enclosure, and there WAS some tasty beers doing the rounds

Been busy over the last couple days, trying to get brownie points for Mothers Day outings,  :P,
meant to say a big THANK YOU to Tube for the FREE RAFFLES of 800g of hops on the night..., just another perk with Liffey Brewers meet-ups, as well as the great craic, lotsa medal winners, experienced advice, smashing food, excellent beers, etc. etc. i could go on but it might sound like i'm bragging or something... 8)
