Kevin, is that a pilsner urquell or a belgian wheat? Sounds like it would be good with some slim jims and wheat thins.

An overpriced real Champagne. Good with salted peanuts in the shell, or Five Guys french fries. I remember early Vintage Cup at Sandanona. Our group furnished a full smorgasbord of food and unlimited mediocre wines in proper glassware for the full four days for anyone who would care to participate. Our prices, "free", competed well with the seven dollar beer at the vendors' tents.

Salt point?

August at Steve Barnett's told me he had a great show at the '24 Game Fair and was planning to do the 2025 event.

I heard the same from August, he told me to just be there it's going to become bigger and better each year. And HARRY you're going to keep seeing it go this way. Two big shoots with big vendors who spend MONEY on a table because the price they pay is recovered very quickly with good sales. If you want a garage sale go find one I guess. Mike's shoot is different, it's all about the SHOOTING and really bad shirts. Either way you're gonna have to get off your wallet at some point Harry : )

No, no - you have to get out of the routine "coal tipple" lunchroom menu these back country outfits subject you to. Beers and ales are fine with these scrapple-like snacks and cholesterol-laden high-sodium killers. I'm talking about the sublime pure combination of essential bounties of land and sea; sparkling wine and oysters on the half shell. And don't forget a fine imported cigar afterwards!

Edgar, did they change the name? I'm old now and can't remember!

P.S. Andy, you mentioned my wallet. I remember watching you open your wallet at Hausmann'n,
The only thing I saw come out of it was a ''Flock of Moth's''

Harry

No Harry I actually bought a gorgeous Turnbull restored Parker from Robin Hollow, and have bought more than a few guns at Mikes, and many in private sale. You just have your diaper in a knot because I won't buy from you. I have cash, but you ain't getting it.
