Will confirm my food order a little later (alas, I am blocked from accessing menu from work but not !). Also, to note that I may be a little late as I have a meeting in Cirencester on this day and so I may need to drop my bottle off with someone beforehand just in case (Alex, I will PM you to see whether I could perhaps lodge it with you?). I also have a Cr60 I could bring if that would help fill the gap that we have with Ray's absence?
I've lost track of what's coming and what's needed! I can def bring 63 and 70. And having picked up some 82 at auction today, I might be able to collect that on Tuesday and bring it along, provided it is at their Park Royal storage place. And then are we still expecting some 85, coming from Davy's Holborn retail section...if so I can pick that up on Weds morning and decant it at work and bring it along.
A suggestion: DRT adopts the Cr70 from Flash; Ben adopts the Cr60 from IDJ; Cookie brings a Cr75 from Tom; and we do a team purchase of the Cr85 from Davy’s.
Failing cogent objection, on Monday I’ll call Davy’s to ensure that they will have a Cr85 at Plantation Place.
Edit: Flash has posted as well — reminding me of his ’82. It’s all too confusing.

Your suggestion works OK I think provided Cookie bends Tom's arm. If not then either I will get the 82, or bring an extra 63 or 70.

The reminder is fair. But…
• Are you certain that was representative of the whole stock?
• In trying out new homes, should we make an effort to appear to be house-trained?

I deliberately avoided recommending not buying one, partly for those reasons.

Is that a double negative? Or a triple?
Either way, signs are that Derek may not be the 'sober' person you're seeking.
