You are missing black pudding for Julian and Ian. Also Ian 'No egg' looks crossed out (I think you wanted to underline) thus may cause confusion.

Otherwise all good. Looking forward to Wednesday

5th June is good for me.

Re: 2 cases of 1994 Grahams vintage port and 2 cases of Dows vintage port for sale

If you are looking for storage options places like Seckfords would be a good bet and charge about £10 a year per case.

I have sent you a PM if you are still interested in selling.

Excellent, for food I would like:-

Start - Cornish Crab salad
Main - T bone steak (black and blue) with béarnaise sauce, chips and green beans

Provisionally I will bring a G70, but this may become a T66
