Wineswap Summer 2011

Summer wine swap, very few rules

Everyone's name would be put in a hat and paired up with another. Put in as many bottles as you like, but remember you need to pay pastage for each. But...put three bottles in, receive three in return from other winemakers.

Rules:

• Must be a bottle of alchoholic beverage
• Doesn't need to be wine but must be along the same lines e.g. mead, Cyser etc
• You must have made the beverage or had a major hand in it
• You must be willing to pay the P&P to send your wine

These are the base rules but after all its for fun so if you have a problem just let me know.

I dont have a time frame yet, i will find out how many people are interested first.

I will update this list as peeps sign up to the swap

[Cariad66]

I'm still waiting for my wine to arrive from the 2010 wine swap

[ukric]

Oooh, just found this, add my name on someone please

[dpile1]

Are we gonna be swapping anytime soon? I've got some wine to bottle soon and was wondering if it needs to go in a certain bottle type for the swap?

[Madjon]

Put my name down as well please, i will have some ready to bottle within the week so any information on bottle types/sizes would be great.

Also, how do you guys plan on transporting bottles ?

[Rich]

wine is fairly easily sent in 250ml type pet bottles, doesn't cost too much to send then either.

How about setting a 31st July deadline for people to join in, then we'll pair up some names after that, then people can get in touch with each other via pm to swap details.
