SCP-DFD just called me from Tesco to ask if there was anything needed. I did what anyone would do in the circumstances and ordered a Tesco (QH) 1994 VP.
I am happy to bring that and the G2004C if that would be helpful?

I think a Sainsbury '03 would be more appropriate. A Morgan '91 has the unfair advantage of 8-12 years additional maturity over the Vau that we are considering as its replacement.
I shall bring the Sainsbury '03.

Anyone have a Bomfim 92 on them? i am happy to adopt - either in cash or to be replaced with one of my own in due course (once out of Seckfords). Might be an interesting comparison.
I'll also see if Waitrose have the Warre 01 LBV. or i could bring Quevedo 04 LBV. up to you guys.
RAYC: we have 5½ bottles (3½ of SV, G04C, Sainsbury ’03) between four people. That’s OK. No need to adopt. Come empty-handed. Often enough you come over-laden.
I think for the sake of aesthetic completeness DRT needs to inform us where he bought the Graham Crusted. I will be twitchy all night if he does not do so or if you don't include this information on the placemat.

The G04C was purchased here as part of a lot of 30ish bottles in a 25% off sale. Some of those bottles went to Holburn and have not been seen or heard of since

The more the merrier!
We had the foresight (well, Julian did) last week to change our booking from the small room to Table 6, the long one in the alcove. This has the advantage of being able to accommodate additional people more easily than the small room.

Happy for more people to join in but does this mean we are now in Port deficit?
Do we need to find a couple of double mags from somewhere to avoid going thirsty?
