Are the big butch lumberjacks going to turn up this time, or has the Top Hat got a "ladies" night on ?

Strato Q

Yes it is, not just the Fincastle crews but as it's the end of Neptune Warrior 062 the French and German crews will have stalls too. Full RDV40 program here:-

$180 Kiwi should be about 3 quid which should be enough for you to buy me a beer for a change .

Cool

Please confirm that there will not be any "Purple Death"?

I've only just recovered from my last lot! (and it means this is back up near the top!)

OK, I'll ask. What on earth or New Zealand is purple death? Sounds suspiciously like distilled hyd fluid, if I know my Kiwis.

What is purple death?

My recollection of it, from the VPI 30th International party was that it was purple in colour, and I felt like death the following morning.

Simple really!

What's Purple Death?

It's lethal!
Don't know what's in it but at the Hangar party I went to the Kiwi's where "serving" it in baby bottles. Also watch out for the Canadian's Moose Milk

Unhappy

It's only proper Purple Death when it's served from a pressurised backpack and dispensed through an agricultural spray nozzle! Good luck at the VPI bash, I only wish I was able to attend!
