Organise events to meet up and drink Port. You may, of course, forego the drinking and just meet, but we're sure that drinking would be more fun.

Am finally over illness, but sadly can't make either the "Farewell to Anna" or "Some Noval" offlines due to other commitments. Anyone fancy doing something (preferably involving drinking port!) one evening the week starting 18th Jun?

How about ringing the changes by not travelling to London and meet at The Bell?

interesting idea, but I'd prefer the usual venue on this occasion as I've got some bottles pending to deliver to people in London, so if an offline is possible the week starting 18th Jun I'd like to be able to bring them down and deliver them.

Given lack of replies, I'm assuming I've managed to pick the one week people don't want (or can't make) a London informal this year - typical! :) Will make other arrangements; admin please feel free to delete this thread, ta.

The week of 18th June is a busy week for me with lots of other commitments (and so is the following week!)

I'm not normally one to turn down the chance to drink port, but apart from the Noval offline - which might now be difficult for me - I am likely to be missing anything vinous organised for those two weeks.

Sorry, I'm only in London two nights that week and already have other plans both nights.

No problem guys; after having offlines most weeks this year, I was a little surprised to watch the tumbleweed blow by following my suggestion but it's just a typical timing issue. Alternative plans are in progress.
