Posted in Fun Time, News, Photos at 1:49 am by Liv

I’m a bit late with this post, granted, as this is a overdue by a couple of weeks, however, having just returned back from London, had quite a few things to catch up on, and as such I’m surely an exception can be made in this case. Special thanks go to Meg for getting me the signed poster by Kayley and Alexa — and of course to the girls themselves!

Just to shed some light into this, you would have probably seen the big launch announcement in the press:

Moving to the UK then I learned of bitter, porter and started exploring all sorts of varieties – mostly European, due to the immediate travels on the old continent.

Anyway, I wish I still had pictures of everyone who tried on the helmet — I had to remove the grill as otherwise I couldn’t drink by the way — but unfortunately I was too drunk to take meaningful pictures, so here’s the usual culprits:
