Right, first post now updated to include the list of who should be bringing what. At present nobody is supplying more than one bottle. Have assumed that we’re all happy to proceed on equal bottle costs. If we finish up with >14 bottles then extras will be team adoptions.
There are a couple of TBCs, including an adoption for Ben. Does anyone have a second bottle they are prepared to offer him for adoption? If so, suggest you arrange it directly between you and then let me know.
There are a fair few outstanding food orders as well. Could you please advise. If I don’t hear by the end of 3rd September then I’ll assume you are no longer attending.

Sods Law: Having not been in London since January 2020 and having no foreseeable need to do so I withdrew from this tasting a couple of days ago. My employer has now deemed it necessary for me to be in London from 11th to 13th September
Perhaps I should bring a 1966 to drink in my hotel room

I have just noticed that there is still a spare seat. Please may I re-join?
Which bottle did Neil have me down to bring? I think I am limited to Fonseca and Warre.

Fortunately the industry guest I invited to replace you wasn’t able to accept the invitation.
I will leave the tasting organiser to advise on your request.
