garyb Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) Hunters, Essex Bum Boys, and Countrymen... It's surely time for another PW booze up, following on from the successful Fullers Tour earlier in the year. The St Albans Beer Festival is on between Spet 28th and October 1st http://www.hertsale.org.uk/beerfest/ I know it's not London, but it does have good rail links into St Pancras, along with several good hotels. There is of course Beardo's Fritz'l esque retreat located conveniently close to the city, which I'm led to believe would cater for the larger Essex male (or 5) Plenty of eye candy, curry houses and bars in the local area to boot. What do we say? Shall I start with suggesting Friday the 30th.... Edited August 16, 2011 by garyb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunkield Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 I thought beating was the perfect cure for a hangover, I, and several others needed the bog about 5 times before lunchtime after the last one, that's not a problem when working from home but much use when stuck in the middle of an open field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) that brings back very funny memories of a beater with the trots on a clear up day at the end of season with snow. He thought the best place to go was under a holly tree that happened to be covered with snow. Well it was till the keeper put both barrels up it. Laugh we nearly cried when he appeared trousers down covered in snow looking like he would murder someone :lol: Edited August 16, 2011 by al4x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twitchynik Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 Just make sure you're in before 18:30-19:00 as it gets silly busy and a long queue soon builds up. The last few years it was 1 in 1 out at about 20:00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
