(I'd be happy if rhubrb cmmnder would give a serious hogwash, but it's best to be 10 in that game.) Best before the first snow falls. Don't know what stuwm is buzzing, but he seems to have lost his appetite for leading a round. So our hopes are for Rhubarb Commander? Last edited by BranShea; 11/19/11 08:38 AM.

Well, I am considerably more than 10! I had three boarders promise almost immediatly that they would take part; so, ever the optimist, I have set up a Hogwash as "Rhuby's Hogwash." Roll up! Roll up!
