I feel very foolish for my order of a cheeseless burger. Please add cheese, and then kindly let no more be said of this moment of carelessness.

This issue has been resolved

Martin, are you still able to print the A3 placemats please?

Yep printer on standby and they will be rolled the right way round to transport !

mcoulson

I'm happy to stump up another Fonseca for this game

mcoulson

Comes to pass that Tony and I happen to have a bottle of 1884 knocking around that we will bring along to join the fun .... Sorry I appreciate this means the placemats need tweaking ....

As long as it's interesting that would be fine ....

mcoulson

This was very nice indeed ... Well worth the effort

mcoulson

This was truly nasty ....

I've updated the first posat with the bottles and also the scores ...... That looks like a really fun lineup, Martin. I know it was a blind tasting, but did anyone figure out during the course of the tasting that they were drinking primarily older LBV's? As an aside, I see that the Pocas LBV did ve...

This visit will consume an entire day for you and it's most certainly not a half hour show round a vineyard with a 10 year old tawney to follow.
