I could always come and pick you up.  I still have 2 spare seats in the car.

Yes please  :thumbsup:

But really, given that the weather forecast has not come to the good, and it is looking decidedly yucky this evening, I'm going to play my OD card and opt for 4 wheels and a roof. If anybody between me and Coggleshall (like Dunmow) needs a lift, let me know.

Well if you are offering....

I was thinking of riding over and then calling the team car but even the ride over is looking grim.... might be the most sober MEMWNS event ever?

Thanks for the kind offer, but I'm a bit like gilbert at the moment ( https://twitter.com/gilberthealien ) so I'm taking to my bed.

I have no idea who JES is. Where would you like picking up from?  I am picking Johnny up at 7:15.

That's a bit of a detour, assuming it was my offer rather than OD's. Are you sure Josie doesn't want to take Grey Sheep's seat?  :)

But I've got the time. Shall I arrive at yours at 7pm?

Forecast suggests that you might get there dry. Bit of a deluge from 9pm onwards though, according to metoffice. Norwegians have a more favourable outlook.

Here’s the plan...

I will swing by Faro Towers at 7:15 then meet the rest of you at the posh new bus stop at the end of Brain Rd. How does that sound?

*** Be a Brewer for the Day update  :thumbsup: ***

The Oatmeal Stout that we brewed is ready for collection in minipins at the end of the week so I'll make a trip over to Southminster on Saturday to collect 5 minipins.  All of the brew has been sold to local publicans, Abby is to advise where they may turn up on tap, the Hurdlemakers is a distinct possibility.
Abby has offered that if anyone due to minipin but for unspeakable reason would prefer not to have our own brew for their Christmas cellar they can swap it for one of these other Wibblers brews:
IPA, Apprentice, Gold, Dengie Devil, Festive Star or Vanguard.
I must say I'm very tempted to buy a minipin of Vanguard as I quite enjoyed sampling that in the brew house.  If any additional orders or swaps are required then they need to know by Thursday to get them ready and bright for Saturday collection.
Anyone that didn't attend the excellent Brewery Experience but would like to buy a Wibblers minipin from the above selection can do so and I'll collect on Saturday, let them/me know by Thursday.
Once in my possession I can drop off or your box can be collected.  (Arrangement for psyclist TBA)
I have arranged for collection of 5 x Oatmeal Stout minipins (10 litres) and one extra Vanguard minipin on Saturday morning.
News on where the casks were sold:
Hurdlemakers Arms, probably already drunk, shame cos I'm going there Tuesday
White Hart near Clacton
Another location far away
Station Arms in Southminster
Live and Let Live, Stanway - due next week!! Tippers, a winter treat brew coming your way  :thumbsup:

I popped up to the Live and Let Live yesterday and they reckon they aren't having it. The boss wasn't there though and I suspect the chap I spoke to just looked to see what was already out the back.
I did get talking to the locals though and I'm now signed up to their cycling group :facepalm:
