Our favourite Retentive Pedant has now been M.I.A. for nearly 5 days
Does anyone know where he is and whether or not he is safe?
It is possible that he is rotting in a Portugues jail cell having been caught trying to ship 6 litre bottles of VP out of VNG

Did I not mention I received a ransom note???
Now where did I put it. It was all "Or you'll never see him again" "If any Police are involved" and "Used notes in a suitcase"
I'll check the drawers at the weekend, it'll be there somewhere.
(P.S. The note was very well written and punctuated)

Are you sure the well punctuated letter asked for used notes and not full bottles?
If I recall correctly, JDAW is off snowboarding in the wilds of Colorado (or some other place). If I recall equally correctly, isn't KillerB in New York at the moment?

Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

I now remember him mentioning that.

Yes, he is. He got rather excited when I sent him a text about GM96 @ £11. He is now not so excited

Actually I'm in Kentucky. I'm in New Yoik next week. I am in a place called Georgetown, near Lexington, mucking with the heads of people from Toyota.
Julian claimed to be going to Colorado but I thought that it was next week.
Port is basically a red drink
