Hi all, The original SMASHED had a basic idea - have a few bottles of really nice whisk(e)y and share them around.
I for one would really like to go back to the original idea, rather than the "get plastered on cheap paint thinner" route. Last year we had a few nice bottle and a few bottle which people brought along because they felt obliged not to come empty-handed. I for one would prefer not to spend €50-€70 on a bottle which will be a curtain-opener for a bender :) If anyone is interested, I would be well on for chipping in (say) €10 or €20 per participant and getting 3 or 4 really nice bottles for the beach party, though. If we want to start with a hard-core group of SMASHED regulars so that we're ensured 3 bottles for €120-€150 or so & have anyone else who wants to chip in to participate once the bottles are broken out, then great! The basic idea - 3 or 4 really good bottles that we savour & appreciate. Who's interested? (If anyone knows any regular SMASHEDers that I've missed out who might be interested, please forward). Cheers, Dave. PS. For getting the bottles, we should first figure out how much we have, and then have some trusted malters buy the swag. I can chip in a Redbreast 12yo to start us off. -- Dave Neary GNOME Foundation member [email protected] _______________________________________________ guadec-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/guadec-list
