Work!

We don't often put stuff like this on the blog but just recieved this from a 75-year old retired man of the cloth, it's a corker....

The Center for Disease Control has issued a medical alert about a highly
contagious, potentially dangerous virus that is transmitted orally, by hand,
and even electronically. This virus is called Weekly Overload Recreational
Killer (WORK). If you receive WORK from your boss, any of your colleagues
or anyone else via any means whatsoever - DO NOT TOUCH IT!!! This virus
will wipe out your private life entirely. If you should come into contact
with WORK you should immediately leave the premises.

Take two good friends to the nearest liquor store and purchase one or both
of the antidotes - Work Isolating Neutralizer Extract (WINE) and
Bothersome Employer Elimination Rebooter (BEER). Take the antidote repeatedly until
WORK has been completely eliminated from your system.

You should immediately forward this medical alert to five friends. If you
do not have five friends, you have already been infected and WORK is
controlling your life.

Cheers,
Andy

International Streekbierenfestival-14, 15 August 2009

This years International Streekbierenfestival is from 14-15 August in the town of Zwevegem (no, I can't pronounce it either!) just to the east of Kortrijk in West Flanders.
You may be thinking what is this all about then!?
Streek in Flemish loosely translates as 'regional' for us English speakers, nothing to do with going naked. Last year there were some 13000 people and around 30-35 different international bars. Should be good!

We will be there this year with around 200-300 litres of some of Germany's finest beer with our usually named 'Beers of Germany', most of the beer will be hand picked up during our Franconia tours in July and August, we are also hoping to bring back some Annafest beer from Forchheim. The beer will also be mainly dispensed by gravity and in the correct glassware!


















Where/When
Friday 1500-0130 (3pm-1.30am)
Saturday 1100-0130 (11am-1.30am)

Bier-Mania!s Lost Guest!

Funny but we were in Bouillon Castle on Tuesday and bumped into one of our first tour guests. We did wonder where he'd gone.
Good to see you again Godfrey (the hunchback).
