derrilex How do people feel about pretzels ? I'm good friends with the owners of king of cakes ( german bakery) and should be able to wrangle some for the meet.

Kelsey Oh give me a leberkase on semmel bread with sweet senf any day. That is all kinds of awesome. We just don't know how to do processed meats over here.

Mochten sie Anglish Mustard. Das ist sehr gut! Wo ist der Umlaut? Now, how many Germans did I offend with my opera singer's guide to pigeon deustch? Good news, when I sing in german all the pigeons can understand me!
Lwowiak Coming from South Australia, where there is a great variety of manufacturers, i have to agree. Queensland sucks when it comes to good quality smallgoods. The only decent bakery is King of Cakes. With relatives coming up for Xmas, they have been instructed to bring "CARE" packages. Poppy seed cakes are awesome.
Kelsey Brett, there's no way I could compare senf to english mustard! Then again, my memories could be tainted by the fact that every time I've had leberkase I've been wandering around Austria. Every time I go back, it's the first thing I ask for.

KK, your generosity was greatly appreciated as always and the Candy Canes.. well one thus far... was enjoyed immensly by a little girl who rarely gets such treats (not that we're mean just watch her intake of sugars, salt, fat etc). Here are some pics:
Lacehim Thanks AM for hosting, it was great! Hope AMT didn't mind the invasion! 🙂 Everyone looked like they had fun, and it was good to talk face to face. It was also nice to have company of the drive down and chat to Kelsey. 🙂 Totally buggered now though. Time for a few beers and a sleep. PS. Thank KK for the sheet of metal, totally forgot about that (Again) and now I have another project over the holidays. 🙂
Koffee_Kosmo Nice day was had by all, because of the nice company Mrs AM & others apparently liked my coffee Apart from coffee and AMs coffee tree garden - approx 20 trees, we had some international food and coffee paraphernalia displays Roasting displays from the I Roast & the KKTO went down well Great banter & laughter helped the time to fly A big thanks to our host AM and family for putting up with us odd bunch :angel: KK
Muscles Sounds like you all had a great time, wish I was there! Have you got a group photo for the day so we can put names to faces??

Kelsey Brett has a few. It was a fun day, good people, good conversation, good (and interesting!) coffee, jerky, machines and tampers to play with..... Who could ask for more?!?! Thanks AM for hosting, we had a great day.
beanflying Sounds like a great day out 🙂 Well done AM for hanging it all together and providing the venue. :thumb:
derrilex How about those funky tampers that AM had ? Didn't help him sort out Mrs AM though 😃 😃
