Who let this clever sod in the forum

A quick count about 250 bottles nothing to new but a good spread Tom has the best collection I've heard of.

I think by the time (king Kev ) catches up with Alex fergerson he will have retired.

No idea

I'm not to bothered on the line up of port as the company is guaranteed to be good Conky has a 58 of mine we should open up as it's a leaker.I think just no theme just bring what you've got spare.The boss has said he would give me a car to travel Friday so Friday Saturday is no problem I'll just hav...

Do you get a white stick to find the glass?.

Listen as a supporter of Newcastle you have to have a strong stomach for the rollercoaster ride we've been on.But as I hate to admit it I hope Man U win against the blues.Ronaldo what a player one of the best in the world let down by trying to get an equity card.

Well if Flash is there who's Ming the Merciless

I thought you made the points quite well to be honest this thread would not have gotten so far if you'd been here to reply first off.I now feel slightly guilty on the biased accusation.But I've looked back on some of your reply's when the port industry is challenged and realise it's a balanced view ...

Depends if your at work the next day if you have a few bottles open it up

To be honest I think that the tasting notes are quite important It is the person or person's who've spent the time putting them together for this website ie Julian and others who should make the decision.I personally don't have a problem with it because I have put in no effort apart from my own tast...

I'm tied up first two weeks in August Friday or a Saturday would be good for me.Chief Marshal that conjures up an image of a stetson cigar smoking gunslinger wearing the silver star.

I think this quite sad news but I hope not we shall see

The only part of me that feels uncomfortable about this thread is Roy has not been here to reply.As I stated Roy's tasting notes I believe are not biased I believe if you are friendly with a shipper or shipper's it has some bearing that is only human nature.The FTLOP site rarely or maybe never say's...

I think this is a valid point we all have financial commitments some more than others but whatever vintage port is an expensive hobby other ports less so.I would like to think whatever port we drink on this forum either novice or expert will be given the same attention on the forum and I think it has.

Mine so far is Noval 67 sublime for a not so great year.

The point I was trying to make is that a critic does not rely on a few particular shippers for his sole buisness yes it is obvious that relationships will develop between critics and producers but they don't rely on them for income.But as Alan has said he hit the nail on the head when he mentioned a...

Newcastle V Sunderland is quite big in my part of the world

I don't beleive Roy's tasting notes are biased either but whenever you need a shipper or shipper's as part of your buisness there will be a conflict of interest.

I'm afraid Fenwick's do not have a website that I know of but the price was £18.

An impulse buy while in town Croft's Roeda 95 from Fenwick's

I just hope Al does'nt have to rely on us beating Chelsea,To be truthful I prefer Man U than Chelsea for a couple of reasons,They bring the young uns on and they have played much more entertaining football this season.

I don't think I've ever tasted this one so I'm quite eager to find out how it develops

I have found a bottle of 1947 from a merchant £185 if anyone is interested or we could all chip in.

I did not know that there was an invitation to post the message however I think it would be a good idea if we had a permanent link for the FTLOP and they had one for the port Forum this would solve quite a few issues arising in the future so people who just happened across either site would be aware...
