The initial title of this thread is “Mon 22nd or Tue 23rd or Wed 24th Dec, lunch or evening?”, which summaries the question at hand. Will anybody be available, and thirsty? I could travel.

[djewesbury]

Alas no. Unless by 'travel' you mean 'go to Belfast'.

[DRT]

I'm in for evening of Monday 22nd. G70 is my weapon of choice.

Boot & Flogger seems to be the obvious venue.

[jdaw1]

You are in the B&F. Please book a table for some of us, starting 15:30 Monday 22^nd December 2014.

[Alex Bridgeman]

I might be available on Monday. Not sure for now as I will need to request a pass.

[DRT]

I failed to see JDAW's request in time.

JDAW - please cope.

[jdaw1]

Table 15 booked for 6pm.

[jdaw1]

Making placemats.

Blind or sighted?

Due to a failure of counting, I’ll bring a pair. One younger, one older.

[DRT]

I have already declared so mine will be sighted. I have no preference what others do.

[jdaw1]

Placemats in first post.

[DRT]

Will the Fr07 be wasted in the company of at least 2 x 1970?

Given that I am due to pay a fine, would JDAW be too upset if I replaced the Fr07 with a W70?

Over my medium-length and mediumly-ill-spent life many rubbish suggestions have been made, none of which looked like that. Placemats updated.

Splendid.

Which one of us should nudge AHB?

[DRT]

Nudged.

Nudged.

If he were coming, what do you think he would bring?

[DRT]

Nudged.

I'm not 100% certain, but I think it would be either a 1970 or a magnum of Graham 1897.

The latter would be very decent of him.

[LGTrotter]

After all, he's got a few. One to wash, one to wear.

[PhilW]

Sadly no chance for me to join you for this one, due to work.

[DRT]

Due to a very kind offer to hold this tasting at a more intimate venue the guest list must now be closed as there are no more seats at the table.

Sorry.

[djewesbury]

What's the venue?

[DRT]

What's the venue?

The Palace asked us not to say.

[djewesbury]

Streatham then

[DRT]

G70 & W70 decanted and en route to London. They both look and smell delicious.

[jdaw1]

Cockburn 1970 decanted at 12:30, and looking good.

[DRT]

DRT is at the muster point and has declared a quorum. Let the fun begin!

[Alex Bridgeman]

Streatham then

Is the Streatham Palace still there? I thought it closed before the war.
