I am sorry about this — I really am, good drinking time — but I will be about twenty minutes late. There will be a penalty, accepted in good grace.AHB wrote:starting at 7pm

Hi,
due to I am sick with a very bad cold since last Friday and I have not been able to get rid of it I am very sad to say I have to drop out of this event. Sorry about this but I still feel very bad and most importantly I would not be able to taste anything due to the very bad cold.
regards
WS1

Is it correct to assume that this is happening at The Square from 7pm?
Very much looking forward to the honour of competing in the historic 4th Doty Cup.

Absolutely. Don't forget to come prepared to deliver a 1-3 minute informative and witty discourse on a topic of your choice. As many points are awarded for the presentation as for wine knowledge.Doggett wrote:Is it correct to assume that this is happening at The Square from 7pm?

Chris - in the absence of any contact from you, or response to my email about your red wine choice I am about to spend the best part of a grand of your money in Hedonism. You have about 5 minutes to stop me.

As far as I can tell, no one has heard from Rob since he went to Cayman.
420dog is SCD. We also have a 7th attendee - Ilya from Blackrock.
The table will be set for 10 so last minute attendees would be welcome.

Only virtually I am afraid. Now to work out what to say to myself for 3 minutes as I try and find something interesting from the cellar to drink...AHB wrote:The table will be set for 10 so last minute attendees would be welcome.
