I am trying to organise an Autumn offline in Belfast. It's possible that this will be a TPF-only affair; that's to say, I don't have a formal tasting programmed to accompany this yet, so no special guests at this point.

September seems busy. November also seems busy - Croft in Leverkusen, BBR Port Walk and the Martinez. Of those likely to be interested in a trip across the water for a night of good food and good port, who can manage what dates most conveniently?

I enjoyed my one and only Port trip to Belfast. I'm in.

I will leave others to pick dates, but a Friday evening would be good as it would save taking time off work late in the year when holidays are hard to come by.

If a Friday, I would go so far as to suggest we make two nights out of it. A theme (another case sample?) and a bring-a-bottle.

Some suggestion on the PM wires that this year is too busy.

Please indicate whether you might better be able to attend if this were pushed to the New Year!
