Paul.

Can you put a request (Instruction, order, edict!), for significant bar staff coverage from 2pm onwards. More people will be there for an early start than last year. Wouldn't want them not being able to keep up with demand.

teacher Also the smirnoff ice needs to be properly chilled with lots of straws.

Daz - if I may be so bold as to edit your request just ever so slightly;

We did that last year Paul, and they wondered the same ... and so ignored the request! By the time they had got back from the supermarket with a load of warm Smirnoff Ice the moment had passed and they had lost out on about £120 in takings over a 5 minute period smile

If I remember right (fairly safe bet at that stage of the afternoon wink ) they only had 14 cold ones and Mark downed half of those laugh

No such thing!!! ....after 5 seconds, it is no longer a "strawpedo"!!!! ...it becomes a leisurely sip, and hence a "strawpedo" has to be re-attempted!!

To be fair, he did do another one as a fine, which bemused the barman somewhat... obviously not something he sees very often in Goole.
