Bring a bottle - Mon 18th Nov 2024

Post by mcoulson »

It's the bring a bottle party ..... at the Boot and Flogger conf number DMN-16874186798

Nice simply criteria to play with here Ladies and Gents

Bring something that either you like or has not been reviewed on The Port Forum, of course your choice could meet both criteria.

I'll make it a blind tasting as that's more fun and we can all try and win against the monkey

Julian has kindly offered to provide placemats

Harry has offered to be the remote Monkey !!

Maybe. Possibly maybe. I'm not sure and won't be until a day or two before the 2nd.

Put me down as a reserve, please, and I'll take my chances.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

If you signed up when this event was a date in December can you just confirm your still ok with the Nov date please

Theres a new manager in the B&F and he is being a bit picky and if we need to move room I'd like to do it sooner rather than later
