I'll be coming with a couple of friends for some thorough gorging. I'm moist with anticipation.

Maybe I should go see the Bangles as a consolation for missing the RSVP sign-up |

Maybe Hubby will drop you off while he goes searching!

Its not a Parking friendly area... my Mum lives there and last month I notched up 120.- in parking fines visiting her...
You're better off parking somewhere like Gesneralle by the Main Station as your parking ticket gives 1 adult valid public transport within the city.

Forgot to mention the Bobettes will be serving behind the "bar" again. Hopefully I'll get better offers this time. By the way, when I said Camels I didn't mean cigarettes and trying to p/x your mother-in-law is just a non-starter (you know who you are).

Another excellent event, thanks Mike, Swissbob (and the Bobettes!), the Pie Shop and all the other fantastic organizers/helpers.
It was indeed an evening of excellence in cheese, beer, pies and company!
Barbra.

Thank you everyone who came and made it such a great evening. About 140 came and it was nice to see lot's of new faces and locals and even a very nice French girl who had to admit that British cheese is not that bad after all  Sorry if I didn't get to say hello to everyone.
If you didn't make it, we're at it again tomorrow at the Rappi Bier Factory. Although we'll be serving a ploughman's lunch the emphasis will be on rare Swiss BIO cheeses.
And finally, don't forget that the Pie Shop is now retailing our British cheese, crackers and chutney's. And their pies and pasties are very good indeed.

That was great. Thank you
I have a lot of photos from last night: I tried to upload them when I got home, but it was the fail of the day
Will do before the end of the weekend.
