Tue 12 June - anyone available?

[AHB]

I could be in London overnight on Tuesday 12th June. If I was, would anyone be interested in sharing a bottle of port?

Unfortunately I can't make that date.

That would work perfectly

Excellent. Where would you like to meet?

[CPR 1]

I am flexible B&F, Bar Douro or somewhere else?

[AHB]

Since it appears to be just the two of us, let’s go for Bar Douro. I’m travelling down from Liverpool by train that afternoon - would you be OK with a 7pm start just to give me a bit of extra time?

That works well, see you at 7pm

Seeking permission.

Placemats?

Now you'll be three. I don't think you need placemats. Have fun!

I’ll book a perch for 3 at Bar Douro for tomorrow night.

Planets are aligning...I may be able to make it. Will check tonight and confirm.

Bring a bottle to share?

Absolutely

If you are able to, could you call Bar Douro and ask if we can increase the booking from 3 to 4 people please? I won’t get the chance to call them much before I arrive.

Will do.

I’ll bring my bottle blind.

Bear in mind we won’t have space at Bar Douro for tasting mats. Best we’ll be able to use is stickies — but we may not even be able to get 4 glasses each and we’ll have to negotiate corkage on the night!

I'll try and grab some sticky things.

Or a Sharpie

Circa 15:20, mine are decanted.

[flash_uk]

Bar Douro notified of 4 attendees. My decant made at 0930.

I will arrive between 1800 and 1830.

[AHB]

Confirmation of change of booking received from Bar Douro.

My train looks to be arriving in Euston at 18.37. I’ll be with you about 19.00.
