That is why I valued it at £0 for the purposes of this tasting.

Brilliant. Boring placemat question - initials (etc) of your guest?

I may well be too late but if not, can I be put down for this tasting-or else add me to the reserve list? I know I have a Graham's 83 I can put up although not sure what else.

An update. Instead of bringing my Cálem I will bring one of these and we can see what we think of it / what we think it is. Should be interesting alongside the GC and QH.
RAB will be bringing the Roeda as discussed.
We will have these delivered to JDAW if agreeable? Possibly next week.

While I'm on a roll I'm doing these placemats. Could everyone choose what they're bringing / adopting and post?
Also if anyone is in touch with CMAG, please ask him his guest's initials and handedness.

Daniel,

I assume we're at capacity or is there room for a +1-I have a friend who would be interested in attending?

Hi Ian

I make it that we have 11 at the moment - so room for another, hopefully they'll want to adopt something..?

I should repeat my request for everyone to declare what they're bringing or adopting - I will shortly disappear into undergraduate essay marking, so I want to get the first draft of the placemats complete if possible.

Thanks!

We now have 12 persons and (presumably) 13 ports (8 declared).
I believe we also have a bottle of Riesling for dinner, that TBH 'lost' the evening of the Halloween tasting.
