Please would somebody verify that the placemats are consistent with the likely attendees (not necessarily the same as the list, edited by me, in the first post) and also consistent with my adopting from Ian.

Assuming that Ian is keeping your adopted bottle blind to you JDAW, then the placemats look fine to me.jdaw1 wrote: ↑13:38 Sat 05 Aug 2017 Please would somebody verify that the placemats are consistent with the likely attendees (not necessarily the same as the list, edited by me, in the first post) and also consistent with my adopting from Ian.

We should rename this thread into thirst in the rain!
What a horrible day!
At least some port to cheer us up!

My bottle decanted at 0730. Some concerns with the nose, hopefully bottle stink but I fear worse. backup bottle also decanted.

Re: Summer Thirst, Wednesday 9th August 2017
I decanted at 7am. I think my bottle is OK. It was the first time I tried it. And the second.

Re: Summer Thirst, Wednesday 9th August 2017
Mine decanted at 0800. So far so good. Always worry about TCA (as I can't really taste it) but smelled fruity enough. A little bite of acidity which I hope will integrate.
Re: Summer Thirst, Wednesday 9th August 2017
Rain? What is rain? I have heard stories, handed down from generation to generation, of this weather phenomenon. But it is merely a myth; a story told to young children to give them hope.
(Seattle is in an all-time record dry spell. Including today, we have not had rain or any measurable precipitation for 53 days and counting. This comes after crushing the winter precipitation record October-April for the 2nd year in a row.)
