Not polo, just boozing.

Drink!
There is a brewdog bar opening tonight, anyone fancy a few?

Also this can be the thread for arranging future piss-ups that ain't after polo.

Fucking brewdog! Remember how good the Edinburgh one was, it was so good my ankle folded in 2.

Official launch is Friday, they'll be open tonight for test runs. One of the barmen is a friend who used to work in Sandbar, hopefully my discount is transferable.

is it open tonight as well? invite only? planning to nip down to polo for an hour or two then sneak off for pints and a kebab with the missus - any other suggestions for good place to drink if Brewdog's a no-go for plebs like I?

Yeah it's open, I think they've got press and stuff in but should be a free for all, I heard mention of a beer amnesty, as in bring shit lager, get nice beer trade. I'll have to look into it.

If I could trade that for TNP I'd be a very happy (and pissed) camper!

I had a "shot" in Edinburgh, was nice but weird, like beer x port x whisky. Will have some sink the bismark next time I'm in with a few extra quid.

Dom from sandbar was talking to me last night about sandbar working with associations and things, I mentioned we have the black lion as our polo pub but we do end up in sandbar post polo more often as it's closer. The point in all this is I think I've wrangled a discount for all poloista in sandbar, it may only be post polo days, there was also talk of free food, but that might mean getting there before 9.

Before 9 = at least 90 minutes of of polo time lost.

Yeah, I said we probably wouldn't eat, there was talk of doing stuff for later. The important bit is cheap booze.

I'll see, I'd need to pick up the fuji from my brothers, but he said he wouldn't mind a beer earlier too. It would be about 7-8 if I did and I'd need to be home early, work tomorrow innit.
