Ok, so I’ve just watched Roy’s YouTube video and have some light disagreements. If you can heat the tongs in the embers of a wood fire (ideal) or of a barbecue, then Roy’s recommendation of tongs may well be better. But Roy says, at 2”²40″, ‟we have a gas stove which does not get it hot enough”. Su...

Some tongs, such as yours and these , have a ring that is perpendicular to the handles. Others, such as these *, have the ring parallel to the handles.

We did a 1977 horizontal in New York last year ( link ), hence this is #2. I think that Jay’s description of i...

That demonstration worked, albeit in a bad-tempered sort of way. But my ownership of www.PortBuyerPortS...

Question -- how do we want to do decanting times for the babies? The 03's will be really raw, but we could decant them 24-48 hours in advance... half into a sealed, refrigerated bottle half into a decanter for oxidation I like the split decanting. And we could split the cost of a T70. Where? My wif...

Are these dates of availability or non-availability? • I’m available in January 2009 until and including Tuesday 27th. • February is good from Wednesday 10th until and including Friday 20th. • Then I enter the zone of re-enfatherment, which will have certainly ended by a date in early April. So my p...

And Vesuvio leads with 68 TNs, of which 24 are from Mr V. himself.

Careful perusal has found some problems. Is Adams the same as Adam? 1995 Petre's Port vintage port ?

Jay: thank you for nudging this forward, and, again, for offering your home. The last Saturday of January doesn’t work for me, but Saturday 3rd, 10th, 17th and 24th are all good.

Done. Due to diligent drinking and note-taking by members of

Welcome to

The BBC, in a story entitled [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7762809.stm]M&S to hold second one-day sale[/url], wrote:Marks and Spencer is to hold a second one-day, 20%-off sale on Thursday, as it tries to tempt shoppers to spend despite the continuing economic gloom.

Thursday's one-day sale will apply to clothing, homewares and wine in both M&S stores and via its website.

Is the seepage from this bottle, or had it dripped from a bottle higher in the rack?

Croft: mandarins or tangerines, not oranges.

Sandeman: nuts, probably almonds.
