Re: 2003 Horizontal - Tue 18 March 2025

I will need to double check, but I have T, F to hand, plus some of the others just need to check which ones are to hand.

I also have Tesco's own label, which might be fun to taste against Sainsbury's?

sorry what is this word spare! no no no. all bottles that come are opened. :D
