Will there be cheese to buy? We're planning to go to Zug for WOHGA, but we were going to go on Sunday. But if there's cheese, we may have to go on Saturday. Such a sacrifice.
ETA: Map link doesn't work for me.

I will have some cheese to sell on the day, I usually sell enough (or at least I hope to) to cover my costs. This Saturday I'll have 3 or 4 Cheddars, Stilton, Shropshire Blue, Stinking Bishop and a couple of very rare regional cheeses.... all British and top notch! As I hope anyone will tell you though, I am really there to spread the word and have a great day.
Mövenpick are also very generous with the wine samples, I think last time they had at least 20 bottles open, you just help yourself. The staff are also very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. (some nice pics of the store here)
Not sure what's happened to the map on the their web site, but below is the image. Not sure how far it is from the BH, I guess 10 - 15 mins walk or so away from town towards Baar.
See you Saturday

Liver: Improving, owing to a recent decrease in alcohol consumption under the benign influence of my master's new friend. Still looking forward to that pint of 3K, though... |

I agree your current "work of art" would not exactly contribute to attracting customers (at least not the type Mr Grapefruit is targeting for his respectable business):  |

Well that was a great day. I can really recommend Moevenpick for good wine, the staff are very knowledgeable and soooo friendly (not to mention generous with free samples). More already planned!

Sorry I didn't make it along Mike - felt terrible this morning so didn't want to risk spreading anything to anyone else...
