As I will be in town on 22nd of April and so is Dirk, the idea is to come together with everyone who wishes to join to bring a 1966 Vintage with him. As I am not London based I would ask for a volunteer to reserve a table at the Bunghole.

To coordinate this, I would put down the fellows with the Port they intend to bring. Please do also indicate if you wish to have them blind or not.

Axel

Put me down as a probable (but not certain until I have asked for and received permission). Put me down for the Taylor.

Good to have you as a maybe.

Axel

Yes please - put me down for the Fonseca.

Hmmmm. Would be great to meet both you and Dirk. I have a dinner scheduled for that evening, but could probably duck out early at get to TBH around 9. Could deposit a bottle at TBH earlier in the day. Ah, why not, yes please!

I have just checked and it appears that my last remaining bottle of F66 has been (erm, how can I put this?) "stolen". Please put me down for Sandeman.

I'm a maybe. More later...

A kindly soul has explained — I was being dim-witted — that the 22nd and the 23rd are different days.

Yes please. Would Warre 1966 be acceptable?

If anyone has 66s to adopt, even second-string 66s, I will be in, I think, but I can't get 66s to this tasting otherwise.

If someone hadn't stolen my F66 I could have helped

Thanks, Julian.

Can you put me down for this please-and I believe that I have a replacement bottle of F66 for DRT's stolen one!

The other - and far more important boss - is the one I need permission from!

Warre is the other '66 I know I have on hand, but Julian has already volunteered to bring one of those. Let me see what else I have accessible.

The same applies to Warre 1966.

Hi Axel; it would be good to see you and Dirk, but as I am already away from home the next two days I am unlikely to get permission for the 22nd as well. I will see you both on the 24th.

Like the draft placemats. I am aiming to turn ? Into G.

I will know by Thursday whether I am able to get over in time for this; if I am, I will be adopting N.

Hi,

if still a seat is still available i would also want to attend. I would bring a Croft if permitted.

regards

WS1

I'm game - could bring the Noval

Daniel might, and might not, be bringing Noval.

I have a T66 (Wine Society bottling) available for adoption if needs be.

The same applies to Warre 1966.

The same applies to Taylor 1966.
