Just wondering if anyone has any pictures of our beer mountain? was on Houx Annexe near the entrance and had Beer Disposal Team logos on it? we have a few pics on facebook but none very good so far. when we topped off there were 100+ people taking pics so i'm hoping that some will pop up on here if you have them.

Hats off boys, was very impressive indeed. We left for our hotel at race finish and you still hadn't "topped it out" so did you get to the top in the end ?

yeah topped off a bit before sundown and then had a party in the evening with people from camps close by, was a really good night actually which is great for the last one as it can sometimes be a bit dull.

Sorry about the quality. It was getting a bit too dark - and I'd been on the sauce. beer

Ahhh, memories... well, as many as the beer would let me retain anyway.

Those last few drinking games to top it off were hard work with warm beer... Must sort out the chilling situation next year... More ice, more coolers, one freezer was just not good enough for the number of people and the rate we were drinking at - especially after one of our two gennys packed up, and my 600w one wasn't really up to the task of effectively powering the freezer, stereo, and a raft of phone and ipod chargers... whoever was using their phone enough for it to go flat in Le Mans is a bit of a sadcase anyway, you're supposed to be on holiday!!!

Gripfill wink

Anyone who says they can build that high without bonding the bottles is lying through their back teeth. Even the lightest breeze would topple it.

I wasn't partaking in the Beerlympics, I was too busy necking a bottle of port at that point!

Was thinking of introducing a new tradition of Port Thursday, but turns out you also get Massive Hangover Friday thrown in for free if you do that...

Ahem... more than a couple... 23 in our group but a couple of actual girls and several blokes with few or no manpoints... So about 15 serious drinkers maybe?
