I’m sure I’ve said the following words, in the following order, after an involved evening… port.case.many.

Sounds fun - yes please!

V05 - 1 case of 6.

Ditto, I’m afraid.

My misunderstandings in respect of Port often lead to disagreements or controversies. This sounds like the tasting for me!

Marvellous idea - please could I be pencilled in.

That kit looks excellent - Kopke really know how to present their products!

Fg? Note, ≠ FG.

Due to issues related to case-sensitive searching (and the scope for typos) I’m not a fan of Fg given the existence of FG.

If I can make it, I’ll be a late joiner - please can I be added just in case?

G07 - 1 case of 6.

Ps98.

Please may I order the following:

Starter - Welsh rarebit (I’m sure I got away with this as a starter order late last year…)
Main - rare steak, green beans and shallots & béarnaise sauce.

Many thanks.

Also looks OK in my diary. Reconfirming.

That’s very kind indeed - thank you.

@ all (except Alex B, jdaw1, CPR1) While we would welcome 15 ports I do not thing we want to go to 18. Please could you let me know, by PM if preferred, what you have that can fill the gaps or whether you would like to adopt one of the ones I have on hand [or whether you would like to bring one of ...

More strawberries on the palate, with oak and a little spice. Very little in the way of tannins, and whilst a reasonabl...

Whiskey's minimum age is probably better, though even then don't you run into potential problems when adding neutral spirit to get it within the legal limits? It depends on the relevant regulations associated with the product in question. For instance, I’m a huge fan of the unambiguous provisions a...
