Re: TCP Opening times on 25th June
I spoke with Andrew, the new manager earlier today. He is not on duty tomorrow, so unless Alex and Derek have introduced themselves tonight it seems we will not meet. He did however confirm I can drop off a bottle from 8.30am tomorrow. Which I will do! We have now met Andrew so our TCP network is w...

Re: Please check the what and the who.
I have printed and they look wonderful. I like the topical in-filling of the principal lettering. New Zealand 3, England 2. Excellent. Thanks Derek If 3-2 was a reference to possible score. they cannot now be accurate! at 1-1 with 1 game lost it cannot be 3-2! You're on the wrong tracks again, Ben....

Your first :tpf: off-line on Wednesday night :lol: Depends on how pedantic you want to be! My first off-line was technically 10th April although I had never heard of TPF at that point so you could argue it did not count. In which case, 25th June will be my first. The long range forecast for Wednesd...

Beautiful pictures. I hope to go there sometime soon. I must warn you that there were millions of midgets hanging around in the car park at the foot of the mountain :shock: :lol: Derek Did you mean midgets? Was there a convention of them? Or was it their airbornes cousins the midges?! Ben, go back ...

Bland, I agree. I had it a few weeks ago and had I not seen the label, I might have guessed it was a ruby :roll:. As Derek suggests, it does get better when chilled a bit. I don't think it would by an LBV from Taylor again. I rather buy a good ruby at a price less tha this LBV or e.g. an unfiltered...

2002 Taylor's LBV
Opened and tasted with no decanting time. This is described as "Bottled in 2007 by Quinta and Vineyard Bottlers, Vinhos SA, Oporto". Not much nose. Very dark ruby red colour. Pleasant enough to drink but nothing exciting. The bottle will get finished though! It will be interesrting to see ...

Re: All calories from port — that’s the :tpf: dieter’s motto
Two bottles should last you till then. If you manage to delete three in eleven hours we'd be really impressed. Don’t eat though: food makes you sleepy. All calories from port — that’s the :tpf: dieter’s motto. [Drink your current rank: that’ll be enough.] You are too kind! Have started on the Tayl...

A dilemma...
Should I open the Taylors LBV of my status or the Fonseca LBV (unfiltered) that I acquired in expectation of still being of the previous standing? The latter does of course appeal more.
In which case I would need to seek authority from the powers that be!
