Hello! Did you not come to MeatUp?

Well, that was a mistake.


I heard it was shit this year.


I had to work today, otherwise I'd have had to make another excuse for not being there.

Had a great time yesterday. Thanks everyone, and extra special thanks to the chefs for their excellent meat.

Yep, thanks chefs and as always thanks Grim... For letting us descend on your house again. Great to see everyone who was there.

Thanks once again to the Yes Chefs for another superb afternoon/evening, and of course to the attendees of said afternoon/evening for being all round top people.

Nice to meet some new folk too (including fellow crazy cat man, Bamba :P) :)

See y'all at Cottage VIII.

Thanks, all. Bloody brilliant to meet Bamba. Everyone should meet Bamba.

Thank you Yes Chefs for AMAZING MEAT. Thank you Bamba for your sexy belt shimmy bottle opening skills - I'm still aroused. Thanks to Sal for little dinosaur biscuits. Thanks Bobby for feeding me your meat. Thanks Pete for the awesome tiny photo magic.

Also thank you all for generally being awesome and allowing me to enjoy a sober BBQ without it being weird.

Bamba's bottle opener was indeed awesome.

Thanks for coming, y'all!

I can only repeat everyone else's thanks to Grim and Craster for slaving away over their meat in order that we could all nibble on it; some of the nicest stuff I've put in my mouth in a long time. It was lovely to meet all the people I've never met before, and just as nice to re-meet those that had previously had the dubious pleasure of my company. Apologies for slinking away without saying anything but that sort of Irish goodbye just seems to happen once a critical level of beer consumption has been achieved. Also: fuck Spotify's 'random' feature. :madface:

You left before the 74 minute Scooter megamix, which is a shame.

I was thinking the other day about how Beex is doing in terms of diversity and it struck me that a demographic which is particularly under-represented here is "people who are very small and light"; I think we should be aggressively recruiting to fill that gap and make sure our new members come to the next BBQ.

And on a completely unrelated note, it was really disappointing we never managed to launch anyone into the air by jumping on Gaz and Jem's airbag thing while they were sitting on it.

I'm not exactly massive :P

Lilian is relatively small and light but unfortunately she was otherwise engaged this weekend.

Our catering style selects against small and light somewhat, too.

I done put them on Peex, because the uploader is less painful.

Yes, that is the link. All mine are up now, however there's two unprocessed dingy colour one's of Jem that are letting the side down, so, er, ignore them. Sorry Jem, uploaded them by accident! :luv:

Amazing pictures Pete! That one of Mali is awesome.

Also, there's a face I don't recognise which I'm presuming is Bamba? Maybe? Anyway, every picture of him captures him staring at his drink. Brilliant.

Also... some people can't take a telling...

I particularly like the one of me having an existential crisis while clutching a bottle of Woodford to my breast.

It is what stops Watergate from stepping up to be a good beer. The inabity to transfer the entire contents from bottle to cup.

The bottle I took home was fine, and tasted really good.

Well done on finally brewing something drinkable :D

I can't log in to the Peex as it seems I don't know my password here, but the pics I've seen elsewhere (here, IG, FB, etc) look like a great time was had by all. I like the pic of Jem on the beanbag especially.

I can't quite see, but are people wearing festival armbands?

Go to Peex and hit the log on via beer button.

That's what I did.
