Beermat

Dear Bloggings,

Being a crazy "father of the bride", I designed  a beermat for the wedding and had it specially produced. I ordered two hundred. They appeared on the tables at the wedding banquet. On one side there's Stewart and Frances pictured on a holiday in France a couple of years ago and on the reverse there's a picture of Peter's Stone at the head of Cressbrookdale. You could see it from the wedding venue.
Now that we are home I see that plenty of beermats were not used so I want to propose something to you.

If you send me your name and address in the comments below I will mail you one of the spare beermats at no cost to you! As soon as I see your name and address I will copy it down and then delete it from the comments so that your mailing details and your proper name are not visible for very long.

I know that a few bloggers already have my email details so they may wish to contact me via the regular email process - avoiding putting contact details in the comments.

It will be nice to give citizens of Blogistan a little souvenir from  my daughter's wedding day and what is more, beermats are very useful!

Yours sincerely,
Yorkshire Pudding (Mr)

  2. It's good to see you've come up for air, Yorkie. I imagine you and Shirley were quite exhausted after the happy event....but, pleasantly exhausted with so many memories to sort and file.

    Thank you for your thoughtful, generous offer, but I shan't take you up on it. My reason is I have been doing a lot of de-cluttering over the past few months...trying to break down my load. I've still a lot more to do...hardly a dent has been made. it appears!

  3. I’m glad all your and Shirley's hard work resulted in a perfect day for your daughter and son-in-law and their friends. How was the walk to Peter's Stone? Did the soft Southerners manage it? If you have a beer mat to spare I’d like one to add to my collection as I like the odd beer. You know where to find me.

    2. I’d been fiddling with my settings. (I know I shouldn’t.) It’s back now, so you can get Medieval with me any time you want!

  5. Won't some of the wedding guests want one as a souvenir and simply forgot to take theirs home?
    Anyway, it is a good idea to have beermats or coasters made for an event such as this. Maybe I'll try that for my 60th birthday which is coming up in a mere 8 1/2 years.

    2. Thank you for offering, but no, I don't - it would feel odd since I don't have any direct personal ties to the people, the place or the date on it.

  6. I love beer mats. My beloved grandfather had a grand collection of them. His great grandson (the Angel) does bring back beer mats from when he visits the motherland and other European countries further East. In England they don't seem much of a feature. Please do correct me if I am wrong.

    I'd love to give you my address. Alas, considering that there are a few people in blogland who are after my hind it'd be reckless to put the Angel at risk of being orphaned before my naturally allocated time is up.

  7. But then you'd know where I live, and when you saw how near it was to you, you'd be round every night serenading me with your guitar. We'd have to get the buckets of water ready.

    1. Without one of these unique beermats, your life will not be complete Young Tasker!
