Wasn't it Sibsters stage this time?

Sib, what you want to taste?

mmmm! what does a Spurs fan console himself with after such a dismal start to the campaign over there?

Yes, a terrible start indeed. But oh, well at least we are still up in the Premier League and will definitely stay there - Razz. I only hung with Kevin to see the Man U. vs. Chelsea match the week before the season started. But yes, I was there for the first match loss.

As for theme stuff......this is all Mattach's informal set up. I would still like to set something up for end of September/begining of October and do an Italian theme night. Once I get back from all of the travels I'll try to solidify something for that.

Have a good time, y'all.

As much as I loath Man (merchandising) Utd I believe they might turn it on on Sunday versus weaker opponents...will you be at the Goerge & D for a Boddingtons Offline?

outstanding idea! bring all bottles wrapped in a paper bag and we'll see who can guess what.

as for the cigar after...now that is an excellent idea!

So my first idea is a 95 point idea and my second idea a mere 90 pointer? or is there a range say 95-97 and 91-94?

After much deliberation...the theme has been set.
Bring whatever you like.

I do believe I'm doing a 2000 Bdx and also something else

So no brown bags, I'll stick with the Turley. Not sure which bottle(s) yet.

Unfortunately, I ate at Quizno’s in the Reno airport last night and have food poisoning. I will not be attending tonight. I’m sure Tilth will be great.
