Yes well unfortunately I'm going to have mine with me all day, so hopefully they won't get sloshed around too much. should have couple of hours to rest before I head up. WHat time is it at anyway?

Have the telly people given any indication of time?

He never mentioned a time to me. Maybe Geoff or Declan spoke to him about it.

I might pop in at some point as well. My weizen is about 4 weeks out (due to my difficulties obtaining Wyeast 3068...), so I'll just be observer status if I make it in.

I am going to do everyone a favour and change my status to observer too - the Nog is embarassingly flat, I don't think there is any redemption, sniff sniff <!-- s:( --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt="" title="Sad" /><!-- s:( -->
(Plus, I couldn't face the televised humiliation!)

Inasmuch as I've any idea what the hell's happening tomorrow, we have:

Camera fodder
1. noby (stout, pale ale)
2. mysterious stranger (stout, pale ale)
3. Hombre Lúpulo (coffee stout)
4. Westbrew (lager, light ale)
5. Sbillings (Brown Porter)
6. TheSolutionTo (poison)
7. Richiehamilton (Altbier, London Ale)
8. bigears (BadAss Brown)
9. Bog Myrtle (Westley's Winter Warmer)
10. Marceldesailly ( amber ale x 3)
11. n1mbus (East Point Stout)
12. Squires (steam beer)
+ assorted OghamBrewers

Supporting players
1. Kenmc?
2. Ramfan
3. Session
4. TheBeerNut
5. microgirl
6. 9BeanRow
7. bighair
8. Biertourist
9. grainne
+ assorted OghamHangersOn

+ The Silenii
+ D'telly folk

This looks to be a three-tabler, at least.

Might it be better to abandon the regular meet-and-discuss format and just all get round and drink and talk about whatever's closest? It'll certainly look more impressive on TV.

This is really up to the brewers: if you want serious proper group feedback on your beer either object to the alternative arrangement or save your beer for another, non-televised, meeting.

Any advance on that? It's going to be a brilliant night either way, I suspect <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->
