pie-eater 207 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 OK well it's still another while before I actually get there, but I'm so enthusiastic about the forthcoming pies and beer that will be consumed that I couldn't help creating this now. So initially here are some targets. There are my bare minimum targets for a period of about 3 weeks. Hopefully I will be able to impressively surpass them. Pies: 25 pies Beer: 40 pints Other people are welcome to provide summer pie and beer details. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I'll help support you pie-eater. Can't wait now, ready to escape this place for a bit. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Will report, when I'm not out or drining beer or eating pies/kebabs. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 40 pints in 3 weeks? You're not setting the bar very high there are you? If you're going to be so half-hearted about this thing, somebody should be sent who's prepared to do a proper job. Personally when I go back to the country with the best beer in the world, I won't touch a drop of wine, despite the earnest entreaties of my brother-in-law and other well-meaning but misguided people. Time and opportunity has to be spent wisely. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 I meant 400! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 the last time I was home I think I broke the 100 pints mark in 2 weeks.....maybe it was the time before as that was summer and we did a wee tour of north west scotland, meaning I got to sample loadsa different local ales actually I think I was on 97 and still had Heathrow to go but didn't break the tonne mark....still a good effort Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Christ, forgot how i much I drank last year but hazily remember it being over 50... Perhaps :s found it - 57 2/3 beers is your target. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Either two with lunch and one with dinner, or the reverse, for a relaxed three a day easily puts you over 40. Pushing the boat out after dinner of course opens up all sorts of possibilities. Gambarimasho. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 its funny that over here we look forward to the respite from the heat, but back home (for Brits anyway) a holiday is defined by how hot and sunny it is Link to post Share on other sites
