Next time I will make a weekend of it and bring the wife, she can go shopping or something. She did, however state that she will never come to another meat as I don't think she like me when I am THAT drunk around strangers. Oh and the southern lot scared her :D
If it's any consolation, I'm in! Not only that, but my good lady has agreed to accompany me, so she'll be able to drink EP's share of York's cider supply. Well, some of it, at least.
