So the pie stalls will definitely be prime targets then Pat :-

Heading down again this year and looking forward to seeing some of the usual suspects once again. Picked up a couple of bottles from the Marlpool Brewery during my visit there over the weekend so hopefully those are ticks for some of us.

Still don’t fully know what to expect at a reduced-size GBBF but it’s always a fun week so I’m looking forward to it as ever!

Looking forward to it and to see everyone. Do any of you have an extra ticket (or know someone) to the trade Da yof GBBF?

Ok, I’ve got Olympic tickets for the football quarter finals at Wembley (not far from Chris’s) starts 2.30pm, so I’ll be over at about 4.30pm. Chris, can I drop off my beers (got a big bottle of Cigar City Hunaphu Imperial Stout) earlier?

No problem. All rather convenient provided you can get away from Wembley without too much hassle.

Looks like you, Scopey, and myself are all in with a shout of passing landmarks at the tasting. I think a celebration is in order!

I’ll see what I can do to get in on it. Odds are long, I know, but so is my backlog - and my frontlog, if you catch my meaning.

if you cant mange 34 at a chris tasting, your not TRYING

plus youve a 10 days to go before then, so your biggest risk is peaking early

Hoping to make it again this year.

I might even be able to hit 1500, but considering how slow I scoop I wouldn’t put money on it.

I will try and get a few rates in before Chriso’s, so that I am at least sober for my 2K!!
