Current draft of the placemats added to first post.

The first tasting for which software made placemats was 30 Nov 2002. Before the software, there had been a hand-crafted draft set of placemats, the style of which has been echoed for this event.

I note that we appear to be missing Croft 1970 from the line-up. I have some & a bottle could be made available for Team adoption. Do we want/need this?

Charles, we disagree: I think you are wrong here. Obviously very wrong.

That tasting in Nov 2002 included Croft 1970, even though mis-abbreviated to “C70”. So we do need Croft 1970.

Yes please.

My partner has started coming down with something (I am currently ok). I am hiding away from her as to not miss this. I cannot promise success.
