OT:anyone leaving ireland for vegas soon please read

robinlacey · 25-07-2006 7:04pm #1

ok this is obviously off topic but i couldn't think of anywhere i could post this that it was likely i would get a reply,so if the mods could leave it up for a day or two i'd really appreciate it...

i just arrived in vegas yesterday and i'm playing the $1500 nlhe event and the main event
everything is going according to plan,with one exception-i had to leave my house for the airport earlier than anticipated,and so i didn't have time to bring over some irish tea,and i cant be playing the world series drinking whatever dodgy tea they'll have over here...
as far as i'm concerned this is pretty disasterous,so if anyone heading over before the main event brings over a box of barry's red label tea* i'll give them $50 for it
you can send me a pm here,or email me at robinlacey at gmail if you're going to be heading over...
thanks in advance,
robin

*barry's gold label or lyon's pyramids would be an acceptable substitute if it came to it,not barry's green label though,that stuff is raspy...

if you can find a meijers store they have a european section that should have it.they did when i was in michigan for a few months last year.

I don't know whether this should be stickied or if I should escalate the issue and ask one of the boards.ie admins to make a site-wide announcement!

For such an important and vital problem I will not lock or delete this thread.

OMG!! lol! This is serious. I owe you for reminding me to pack the lions tea bags. Seriously. No joke.

When I was in vegas I was in a shop that sold the evening herald so getting a packet of barrys shouldn't be to difficult.

I think you played this hand very badly, after missing the flop you should laydown the hand and have a cup of

GOLDBLEND COFFEE

Ill know who to ask for teabags so. I didnt bother this year as its very hard to get kettles or milk over here - tea and creamer is horrible. Would suggest bringing a kettle.

May I compliment you on your choice of tea's. Barry's red label is the only way to go. I think my Granny would like you;)

Who has the Tayto? I think this food issue should have been allocated via agreement before ye all went out.
