The guinness tshirt.

Ray bought this from the shop in the Guinness Brewery in Dublin when she was over visiting her sister last October. Instant T-shirt - just add water.

ahh.... i gotcha.

in that case, when are you planning on fitting the YG/TT flip lock onto the clasp, to break the too-much-SS-ness?

oh - nice T shirt by the way. does it come in the "blown up version"?

as in a bigger version of the Guinness T Shirt.... does it need to be soaked in the water to make it bigger? or is that a vacuumed packaging?

Whether you put it in the freezer for two hours or you take it straight out of the boot of your car on a hot summer day, there is nothing like a Guinness.
