I am an unlikely, but possible. I will seek permission. It is the one day next week that I might possibly perhaps be able to make.

Drat and double drat! I hadn't undertaken the necessary checks and balances (schoolboy error) and as am on child duty that night, regrettably I will have to confirm that I'm now out

Blind or sighted? I lightly prefer sighted, but will go with the consensus.

Bonus request. I’ll bring mine in decanters. If it isn’t too inconvenient to do likewise, please do likewise.
