April is looking rather dry.
Alas I can’t make the week of Mon 15th, and B&F is Tue 23rd April (corrected following AHB grumble). Can a quorum make Tuesday 9th April 2024? (Which, alas has the disadvantage of being in half term.)
Simple theme: sighted, Port not frequently seen.

No it’s not! You know it’s not because I’ve already told you it’s not!
It’s Tuesday April 23rd!!!
I might, perhaps, be able to make it.

Or, how about 2001 Quinta do Vale Donna Maria - for which there's no tasting note on the index?
Organiser to decide.

There is to be a
decanting experiment on Thursday 11th April. If people prefer that there be only one event that week (but why?), then this one will be postponed. Pls express preferences.

I'm very much up for both these events but two events in three days I fear is a bit much and more enjoyment might be had all round if we spread them out a bit ....
