I got a call from the brewery this morning and they're not prepared to deliver to paddington for our next social, leaving us a little bit in the shit. Anyone got a shovel?
I've formulated the following devious plans: 1. a kind, friendly soul with a car drives to the brewery/winery in essex and drops stuff off at a convenient holding point (with lack of volunteers, probably my flat), and I will get them to the social a few cases at a time. 2. Similar, except we go next weekend and people pick them up from my house rather than the social. 3. a team of kind people arrange to meet at a tube station in eastern zone 2 and proceed to help me carry beer to the social via the hammersmith and city line. 4. I organise a social at the bridge house for september and we have the beer then (august is YAPC, remember). I'm not sure I can cat-herd effectively enough to make option 3 happen, but does any kind soul with a car fancy a daytrip to a brewery and winery in essex, or will we have to put it back to september? So, shovels anybody? Oh and we need to get artwork that still hasn't been drawn to the brewery by the end of tomorrow if we're going to attack plan 1 or 2. Any artistic shovels? --James
