yeah Rod, and it covers most of the important food groups too. A few Archer's Ales would be a good square meal :D :wink: :roll:

Sounds nice, but a bit flat it looks like the glass has been sitting there for a few hours. English ale tastes better served through a beer engine with a nice frothy head not like the insipid cold tea they seem to serve in London (and gives English beer a terrible name everywhere).

It'll happen Matey. We just gotta organise a hunt. Don't have too high expectations, though, it's been nearly 25 years since I seriously drank, I'd reckon by your third stubbie I'll be snoring! :D
