The food order has been started.

Tom?

You’ll want from Christopher’s two guests, and the name of one of his guests. He can be unresponsive, so ask soon.

A holiday to Portugal perhaps? A shame, but thanks for letting us know.

Three reveals aren’t enough for me to start the placemats. Others: be encouraged to be decisive, and to reveal the fruits of that decisiveness.

Simon: please maintain a list in the first post.

I don’t understand “standard fries” (= fat or skinny?), so that might be confirmed at the time. Otherwise done.

Sorry. Simple answer is that I don't know at the moment. I'll look shortly.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

It’s too warm for vintage port at the moment, so I’ll bring a bottle of Noval ‘68 colheita (chilled, of course).

Looks good, thanks Julian.

Would someone be able to print these before Tuesday evening? I am without access to a suitable printer for the next few days.
