I don't have much spare change to put towards Wayne's airfare – much as I love the RGS, I'm having to skip out on this year's extravaganza as well – but I have recently shipped two bottles of GRAMPS Chromo Crude Triple Chocolate Stout to Rich Muth, so if he's the referee maybe he'll contribute one of them so that the combatants can share it after the contest to cleanse their palates of the Marmite & Vegemite, respectively.
