When do you want to schedule our next beer festival? The only reason I'm nudging is because Mr. Nerd has to put in for the time off. We know you are adjusting your drinking schedule to align with our daylight hours, and we completely appreciate that, but Mr. Nerd is the night brewer at a local craft brewery, and still needs to apply for the time off.

Thank you and smiley - cheers,
Happy Nerd

Right. I have quite an early finish before Christmas with no plans for the week before Christmas day

Given that we've suggested the Brits stay up late and we try and do a transatlantic beerfest, what about sometime that week. I don't know how busy Rich gets at Christmas.

Early next week, I'll be in the vicinity of a store with an extremely well stocked beer aisle. Do let me know what beers you're selecting.

Mr. Nerd and I are out in the country spending the holidays with my mom, where there is very little except fizzy light lager. (Good thing Momma Nerd doesn't drink; otherwise, she'd be terrible disappointed with the local selection.) Tomorrow Mr. Nerd and I are heading into town for the last food/beverage shopping until after your Boxing Day. If you have a chance, please let me know what I should be looking for in the way of smiley - ale at the store for any sipping we'll all might be doing.

Otherwise, Merry Christmas!

Sorry, folks. I underestimated how much time planning a wedding would take up. The Transatlantic Beerfest is a winner of an idea, I reckon, but I won't be able to do it until I get back from Africa. Feel free to crack on without me if you're organised, though smiley - ok
