@ SCP - you're up if you want to attend. If you don't still have the 1986 I have brought a bottle down to town with me.

@ all - I am now going to have to be in Birmingham for a work meeting on 2nd so cannot absolutely guarantee an early arrival. We can aim for 1800 prompt start if someone else (or ideally two or three people) are reliably able to get there to do the pouring at 1730. I will also need someone else to print, sorry. To be clear, there is every likelihood I will be there at 1730, but your relying on it if you want a prompt start is inadvisable.

Strike dates have all changed but having altered all my arrangements to come up and go back on the same day I am going to stick with that plan. I should be able to arrive early to help set up and begin pouring for a prompt start.

Please could whoever is to print the placemats start with a test of the first page, ideally before Wednesday.

As there is currently another train strike planned for the following day, staying over after the tasting is no longer practicable, and I and perhaps others will therefore have to leave early to ensure we can get home before the strike begins at midnight.
Perhaps the organiser could be persuaded to choose a start at 5½pm.

Bad — thank you. Believed fixed.

Please print one more test page. Do the Vargellas and Terra Feira circles seem, approximately, to be of equal darkness?

Please can someone do the usual reminding of the CMAG.

Very sorry , poor admin. My children are coming for half term then.

Happy to still adopt the bottle so you don’t miss out if no reserve
