    And just for the record, not that these will be included in the vBookies records and not that it would matter, we also did these Vineyards in Marlborough

    1. Allan Scott (incorporating Moa Brewery)
    2. Forrest Estate
    3. Bouldervines
    4. Prenzel
    5. Drylands

    So my calculations was 11 days of drinking available = 5.36 per day, include the vineyards and it's 5.81.

    Not a bad effort. I will also make a note that I was the ONLY one to do every single one on the list.

    Just doing some last minute preperations and goal setting for the tour

    NSW-ACT March 2007 - 27 pubs in 5 days = 5.40 pubs per day
    ACT - NSW April 2007 - 13 pubs in 4 days = 3.25 pubs per day
    Melbne Bledisloe 2007 - 20 pubs in 5 days = 4.00 pubs per day
    Melbne v Crusdr 2008 - 12 pubs in 4 days = 3.00 pubs per day

    Bearing in mind the first tour on the list took in the pub rich area of The Rocks in Sydney, I would like to think we can keep up a 3 pub per day average in NZ.




    Looks like my calculations were a little out, sorry TLH!!

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.

    I forgot to mention the best quote heard in a bar on tour.

    "Get a cider, in cider, and you'll get, in cider"

    BTW, any particular places that should be remembered or recognised, stick them up on Local and International Supporters Groups (and Force friendly establishments) for future reference.
