A big thank you to McCarthyEra... 22:06 - Jun 11 with 7416 viewshoppy

Got back about an hour ago from a great weekend, with McCarthyEra hosting his 3rd Annual BBQ. What a lovely place - and such a good time, good food, good beers, good company - and then fantastic pizzas later on, prepared and served by the neighbour arriving on a tractor, towing a converted horsebox - now home to a pizza oven...

To those that were there - was great to meet you all, and to have some really interesting conversations, but specifically to McCarthyEra, thank you so much for making your place so available for fellow Town fans, and Yasmin said she can't wait to be able to tell what she did at the weekend tomorrow at school when they all get to tell... I wonder if anyone else will get time to say what they got up to, once she's finished...

Thanks from all of us.

2nd year in a row I've been gutted I couldn't go.

Good for him for putting it on. Sounds really good.

Next year. ..

It was indeed a really brilliant effort by McCarthyEra, who could fail to love the guy.
It was really good to meet you and the others, including the irrepressible Yasmin.

Likewise - great to meet everyone yesterday. Shame we missed the pizzas, I do however still have a bottle of Rogers scrumpy! Thanks also to McCarthyEra, Tony.

Was so glad you were able to make it - I hope you don't suffer too much for it - take it easy, and a big thank you to your Mrs Soap and your daughter for keeping her so busy too... she loved them and was disappointed to see them go!

Don't worry... you didn't miss anything really!

Hopefully, next year...

I'm currently enjoying one of said bottles of scrumpy, along with a toasted stottie with some of the chilli cheese we ended up bringing back with us...

Thanks, not suffered any consequences as yet, I think the beer must have helped.

I believe it was probably mutually beneficial having the two girls there, Jen loved it too and was sad to leave, she slept most of the way home, think Yasmin wore her out.

Did anyone mention me showing up with a big MEAT IS MURDER sign and slapping burgers out of everyone's hands? Might do that next year.

BIG BIG thank you to McCarthyEra for such a brilliant time. Great to meet such nice people in such an excellent location. The "shergarburger " pizzas dispensed from the back of a horsebox was surreal. Ticked off another 'Spoons (Gloucester ) The Regal an old cinema , and marvelled at the monumental Cathedral. Made it safely back to the big smoke with some excellent chauffeuring from Senor Pendejo. Happy days love to all.

Good to hear - and that the beer helped!

Yes, I think it was great they had each other there and played so nicely - along with Tony's two on Saturday as well.

I had both Yasmin and KJ asleep for a fair bit on the journey home - but she was talking non-stop the rest of it, you'd probably be surprised to hear, or not!

Superb company , amazing food. Lots of alcohol and of course thank you to McCarthyEra as always.

Some pictures below

As you can see, we vandelised various parts of the A417 to let people know where McCarthyEra's place is




Newcy bought some things called "stotties" - which are basically massive baps (no jokes at all there) - all we know is you can get a shedload of bacon in them!



Nutella pizza anyone?



Finally, i think Yasmine captured the assembled beautifully (guthers doesnt have that much hair)

I am not at all surprised. She does the same to mere adults too. Lovely kid.

Must add to that thanks to the actor, a Town fan (unfortunately prevented at the last minute from making it on Saturday), who was appearing in the excellent farce "Don't Dress For Dinner" at the Everyman in Cheltenham and met up in the pub after.

Newcy's baps certainly were a joy to behold...

I've got another one with me to have for my lunch today!

I notice you fail to mention how Yasmin depicted you, in between Guthers and me... fairly spot on?

I'd like to also add that Liz Edwards gets a lot of stick on here , but the gesture she made (a squad signed Portman Road plaque) for McCarthyEra for organising the Barbecue was a genuinely lovely thing to watch. You could see how touched he was to receive it.

Well done that lady.

She also made a generous donation to the TWTD banner IIRC. Most of the stick comes from a small vocal minority.

She wasn't actually there, but made a special point of getting it to me in time for us to take down with us as a thank you to McCarthyEra for putting this event on for ITFC supporters.

As you say, a nice gesture and not something that she had to do at all, and was certainly appreciated.
