International Sixes Flyer

Guys , here it is , the long awaited Flyer for this years International Sixes .

Please forward this to your email address book , there are plenty of tickets left and we need all the help we can get .

Be prepared next week we will have these in print form , which the Bashers will be allocated an area in Shanghai to drop off .

Traditionally the Bashers have made this poster and flyer drop a pub crawl , and we so no reason to break with tradition.

Once they are printed we will be asking for volunteers to distribute . 

Anyone who lives in remote parts of Shanghai , we need you to step up and distribute to your local expat hangouts , stores and restaurants .

Sad Terrorable Farewell

Bashers, break out the tissues – Basher #1 is leaving us.

He’s called for all Bashers to come out with brave faces and attend a PICKNICK this Sunday at Century Park in Pudong. Go to the Century Park entrance from the Century Park railway station from about 12.30 and ring a Basher you know and find everyone for this final day out in Shanghai before our beloved Shrek returns to his Princess Fiona.

Next Time we see him will be fainting during the live feed to the birth of his child during the sixes dinner.

Bring; Food, Friends, Family, Footies, Frisbies, Blankies, Brollies, Booze, Babies and your Bad Arsed Selves
