Actually you can make your own and it tastes pretty good. I prefer peach juice to lemon though. Just pour peach juice into a glass of evaporated milk...ummm The guy looked to be doing it with lemon juice in the movie.

I could never figure out why people thought it was gross.

[Glassair]

:D Great, where in Monnickendam? I thought after reading the subject of the post that this would be in the US, but wow what a suprise to read it's in my hometown! :smug:

Great guys!

[Drebbel]

Where in Monnickendan ? Everywhere :-)

BlueBearD has a house overthere. Several people (BlueBearD, Dargo, Nos, Deer, Drebbel, Neal) will probably stay there. So his place will probably be our base-camp.

Just contact one of the hosts if you want more info/adresses/phone numbers.

Host names are listed at:

It is not about Holland or any place we held the meeting. It is about people meeting and having a good time :arrgh!: You just like subs, then the meet is probably not your thing, you like people and hate subs, then you will love the meets :D

[bigmammal]

I love my subs and want to share my submarine meca with you! Come to Connecticut! lol :)
