Could I also change to the rib eye bone in steak (rare) please. Thanks. It just sounds too good. Yum.

I would however buy something to fill gaps, or offer to double up on what you'd usually expect to be the pick of the bunch... Best

Yes, once Mike confirms whether or not he is attending.

Thanks

Thank you. Can you please let us know which 1966 you plan to bring along?

Have plenty of '66 - Dow perhaps?

flash_uk wrote: ↑18:03 Thu 05 Sep 2019 The winds have shifted, there may now be a chance I can attend. Was supposed to be in Chicago but now a possibility that isn’t happening. Will hopefully figure out before end of tomorrow.

Alas, the winds have not changed. I’ll be landing in Chicago just as the first drops of ‘66 are passing your lips.

Tom, please also confirm what you want to eat

Not yet — still awaiting being told some Ports — but when ready, please, who can print A3 and A4?

DRT wrote: ↑07:38 Mon 09 Sep 2019Can someone please volunteer to print the placemats?

I plan to arrive at the B&F mid-afternoon to decant and begin setting up. If anyone is able to join me to help it would be very much appreciated.

I am stupidly excited about this tasting. I haven't had any proper Port drunk with proper Port People for what seems like far too long.
