Yes, I will update this evening. Who will print?
With only six people, will we really need to pre-pour?

My flight lands at LHR at 1630, so all being well I'll be there around 1800.

Yes, A4. Please print at 100% — don’t allow your printer settings to shrink the pages. And not duplex.
Re: Graham 1980 case study - Wednesday 2nd April 2014
If there is just 6 of us now, are we going to be able to do justice to all 10+ bottles we seem to have coming?
not meaning to be weak and feeble but I am not sure 10 bottles of port can count as my 10 portions of fruit and veg?

Given so few people are now able to attend, I will bravely face the scorn and announce that I will not bring the magnum of Graham 1880 to the tasting that I had planned to bring.
Now we are down to a mere 9 bottles for the 6 of us.

I haven’t. Indeed, it isn’t me to print. And AHB doesn’t own any magnums of Graham 1880.djewesbury wrote:Oh dear, and Julian's already printed.

It might be worthwhile to bring some smaller bottles in case people want to continue sampling on subsequent days, or indeed as DJ suggested, act charitably by way of Royal Mail.

I supported Royal Mail to the tune of £750 and, like many other patriotic souls, made about £500 in 36 hours. I think I have done my duty.djewesbury wrote:I think it is our patriotic duty to support Royal Mail. Just saying.
Despite the late withdrawal I intend bringing my life-giving extra. If others feel it is surplus to requirements I will happily sit in the corner and sip my way through it. I would, of course, prefer to share the joy.
