The ’95 and ’06 are opened. Cork of ’95 crumbled: I want the CEO of the cork company in prison. They have vandalised too much high-value product.

I will Audouze. Others encouraged to do likewise.

It is possible that we will be joined by another first-timer. Details awaited.

Edit: Sara G., friend of Harry H.
Edit edit: she can’t.

As ever, 18:00 for 18:30, with the usual rule that a quorum shall be the number present ⟹︎ pre-6½pm start quite plausible.

Possibly 1847 Tuke Holdsworth 1851 Tuke Holdsworth 1858 Tuke Holdsworth 1861 Tuke Holdswor...

Currently the ’82 is being brought by Neil.

Food orders please (menu, current draft of food order).

I am checking with the guest.

Neil has already sent me his bottle prices (generous — doffs hat). Please could others do so.

Yes please.

Am I am interested, mildly. If there are more bottles than people, by such a margin that more people are wanted, then please may I join and buy my share?

I have a lake† of consistently excellent Graham 2015 ʟʙᴠ.

Obviously, the idea of a Stilton & Chilli Jam Topped Melton Mowbray Pork Pie is heresy, even high heresy, despite it being a Leeson pork pie . High heresy: burn her at the stake.

Opened 21:45. Bottle top covered with a coffee filter, to keep out insects.

Good quality recorking by the Symingtons.

Hello, beautiful.
