OK, so next steps are the theme - will be decided by the local members and what is in their cellar.

I would like to adopt as would my brother and would my GF.
Babysitter has now fallen through so my sis in law isn't now coming - sorry about that.

Want me to invite someone else? Spouse might come (though she doesn't drink), alt I bet my brother would be interested and I could bring a bottle for him.

[Zelandakh]

Sushi - thanks for giving the updates, yes I'm a 3 now and thanks to Sushi, we're fully adopted.

9 of the flight sounds fantastic.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

[differentdave]

i did not see the dow 77 in the lineup---sushinorth I can source from u if I am not bringing my juice.

[g-man]

oops

corrected

updated.

No no, dow 77 is good; i meant we were bringing that OTHER "d" -- Delaforce77

[SushiNorth]

Alright, it's time for me to make some placemats -- g-man can we get the final lineup?
got it, thanks
1977 Smith Woodhouse VP
1977 Warres VP
1977 Delaforce VP
1977 Quinta do Cachao VP
1977 Sandeman VP
1977 Dow VP
1986 Warre LBV
1984 Smith Woodhouse LBV,
1982 Taylor LBV

[SushiNorth]

FYI, this tasting shaped up nicely as lesser-house 77 VP's and a comparison of mid-80's LBVs.

[Chris Doty]

Looking bang tidy, gents!

I need to make sure I can find that old LBV -- other than that, Terry and I should be all set for this friday!

[Zelandakh]

Looking good. Placemats for sure is a good next bet...

9 bottles, 9 people means 81 glasses assuming no incidents.

Really looking forward to it.

[g-man]

Btw, I already put down 200$ which will come off teh bill, so fyi the bill might come out lower, but my estimate of 100$/person is still accurate.

[Zelandakh]

Plus charges for practicing this week

[differentdave]

are we setting decant times or using our own judgements. Also having a little issue with child coverage, may wind up being up to an hour late at worst.

[Zelandakh]

I don't have any to decant as SushiNorth is doing that, but I'd say personal judgement but preferably at least 24 hours

Child coverage issue - there's a lot of it about!!

[g-man]

I'm goign to spot decant.

Dave, should i ask them to hold the food for you?

the menu is posted on the first post ..

because it's a private room it's prefixe only.

[SushiNorth]

Placemats (PDF)(PS)

[differentdave]

just crack open the 77 dow (have not tasted but it looks yummy.
As for holding food I should be there between 6:30 and 7:30 as long as u guys socialzie for a few at beginning of evening prior to starting meal I think I should be ok. But just in case Risotto, filet (med rare) and creme brulee. Thanks

Looking forward!
