Behind it are Gazza (scoopergen.co.uk) and... Dave Unpronounceable! I need to get some of their beer shipped over here to America, it will go down well.<br /><br />Sid, it's Tony *Martens* if it's who I'm thinking of.Alex Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01637006315967944523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7870641958407671573.post-12591812548542772172010-01-12T11:52:19.462-08:002010-01-12T11:52:19.462-08:00@Mel: I had a social life too - I watched that DVD...@Mel: I had a social life too - I watched that DVD...<br /><br />@Julie: American 'tickers' congregate on RateBeer and BeerAdvocate, and drink in tiny 1oz. samples. They drive nonsense like Dark Lord Day and chase esoteric and limited batch beer. They tend not to display much love for beer as our eccentric crowd does, they just want the taste for review purposes.Sid Bogglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07452473947039475736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7870641958407671573.post-36509692344237352692010-01-12T09:58:19.793-08:002010-01-12T09:58:19.793-08:00@Julie - definition of a ticker is someone who ...@Julie - definition of a ticker is someone who 'ticks off' a beer once they have seen and tried it, they can only 'tick' a beer once and it's of some debate whether making tasting notes makes you a ticker or a scooper (yes I'm serious, not I'm not winding you up, yes I'm serious - see here http://www.scoopergen.co.uk/Lingo.htm)<br /><br />@Sid - sorry mate, was too busy having a social life : )<br /><br />@Cooking - you wouldn't is my best guess!!!Melissa Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13701889299756506857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7870641958407671573.post-8218353189952947782010-01-12T09:36:44.330-08:002010-01-12T09:36:44.330-08:00Okay, I'm going to show my best ignorant Ameri...Okay, I'm going to show my best ignorant American here...what is a ticker?Julie HGhttp://www.goodbrewer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7870641958407671573.post-54449074948140965912010-01-12T09:33:46.680-08:002010-01-12T09:33:46.680-08:00@Cookie: there's lout pr0n, but I'm not go...@Cookie: there's lout pr0n, but I'm not going to tell you where...Sid Bogglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07452473947039475736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7870641958407671573.post-3810445641294268842010-01-12T09:25:15.610-08:002010-01-12T09:25:15.610-08:00Um...You don't get treated with the sneery con...Um...You don't get treated with the sneery contempt of tickers because:<br />You're blonde<br />You're a journo<br />You have a life<br />All of the above<br />Did I mention blonde?Conan the Librarian™https://www.blogger.com/profile/01904339261121451779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7870641958407671573.post-31702973795283102542010-01-12T09:19:28.354-08:002010-01-12T09:19:28.354-08:00As "fast & furious" is in the DVD ba...As "fast & furious" is in the DVD bargain bin at HMV and I have yet to see the thrilling fourth instalment in the popular car chase franchise, I would buy and watch this why?Cooking Lagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02830924433230427226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7870641958407671573.post-32486789876457938702010-01-12T08:46:56.469-08:002010-01-12T08:46:56.469-08:00Keep up, Melissa!

Even the hardened CAMRA men were edging away. And I remember the excitement that ran through the room at the Taunton Beer Festival in 1997 when it was whispered that the Queen of Tickers was present.Adrian Tierney-Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05421802854011395300noreply@blogger.com
