My day has become more complicated — I need to attend a funeral in Poole. So I’ll be coming direct from that to this.
Either:
• Pls can I transfer a G66 to somebody before then? Or
• Pls may I adopt rather than bring?

There is now a small but positive chance that I might be able to make this tasting (arrangements for the bft are progressing well) - please could I have the last seat?
Assuming I am able to make it, the only 1966 VP I own which is not already being brought is Berry Brothers Own Selection. Or I could just bring a second bottle of Fonseca. After all, why would we not want to have two bottles of the wine of the night?

Just awaiting one order before confirming the food.
Will ask for starters at 1900 and mains at 1945.
I'll aim to get there for 1700ish.
