OK nice one Dave, if the doss move / spare bit of floor / couch etc is available then I could get an off peak return which works out no dearer than getting the 2 wayfarers. That way I can arrive Sheffield 0908 and meet up with everyone at the Bankers and tick the brewery and it’s beers. For the Saturday I guess if there is a load of us going to Manc we might be able to buy some sort of duo/group return if they still do them? cheers!




doss move is on. think there’s 4 peeps staying, got 2 mattresses and 2 sofas so no-one’s in the shed yet!

not looked at group fares - will speak to TP later

Thanks Dave will be far better all round based in Mecca rather than faffing about to Cheshire and back! Event is really taking shape with the Friday alone looking a quality day, potentially 4 brewery visits and a host of winners around the pubs thumbs up

With the time we’ll have that might have to do! The other places worth going are a bit of a trek - Stalybridge (another buffet on the station for Ian!), Stockport and a few others in the centre which I’d not bother with unless walking past.

Should be a good day with just that, I’d see what happens - after all, there must be 100 beers or so just in those pubs.

Thanks for the schedule! Getting to the Harlequin before 1 PM might be a problem, but I’ll first drop the beers for the Grand Tasting there and then go to Riverside or Kelham Tavern to meet up with you guys.

Wolfie dont do it man, seriously. These beers are proper shite and can be quite expensive. If your serious i’ll try getting them but then i insist that at the grand tasting you sit along in the corner and drink every last dropevil grin
