There is to be a decanting experiment on Thursday 11th April. If people prefer that there be only one event that week (but why?), then this one will be postponed. Pls express preferences.

Re: Thursday 11th April - Decanting Experiment plus some drinkers
Hell yes.
I’m happy for there to be two events in this week. If others much prefer that there be only one, then the event on Tuesday 9th April will be postponed.

Re: Tue 9th Apr 2024, B&F, Port not frequently seen
April is looking rather dry.
Alas I can’t make the week of Mon 15th, and B&F is Tue 23rd April (corrected following AHB grumble). Can a quorum make Tuesday 9th April 2024? (Which, alas has the disadvantage of being in half term.)
Simple theme: sighted, Port not frequently seen.

If it is not framed as a red port, but instead as a sauternes-sherry mix, it could be drunk with pleasure. It was possible to pretend that it was a very very ligh...
