@ Julian - is the N actually Ni? I can’t remember my abbreviations.

N = (Quinta do) Noval
Ni = Niepoort
Ni77 and Ni77c (assuming colheita not garrafeira which would be Ni77g)

I suspect that the Offley will also be Offley Boa Vista, OBV77 rather than O77, though Offley/OBV often (if not always) effectively synonymous.

Additionally, the circle-text for BBR is currently "Berry Bros & Rudd Selection" where in fact the brand is "Berry's Own Selection" as produced by "Berry Bros. & Rudd" (note the period also). Admittedly we didn't help ourselves here by choosing the abbreviation BBR per bottler rather than the brand name, but it is what we are familiar with (and perhaps more recognisable). Suggest either:
"Berry's Own Selection" per the actual brand, or
"Berry Bros. & Rudd" correcting punctuation, or
"Berry Bros. & Rudd's Selection" as equivalent pseudo-brand (with corrected punctuation and grammar).

Done.

Done.
The text did have a dot, placed as BBR themselves place it. (Picture from previous version, not this one.) I don’t believe that “correcting punctuation” is quite worthy of a dawn duel in New Jersey, but it cannot be far shy of it.

In a recent Dr Who episode they returned to June 2024, and behold screen grab. The Time Lords knew that this was going to happen.
Luckily, the stairs at the B&F are Dalek-proof.

However I am not sure the placemats fully reflect this as there is a QH on the placemats but not on the bottle list and Alex is due to due to bring 'M' but this is not on the placemats
Re: 1977's - Tue 11th June 2024
Yes and ‘M’ is on the bottle list but not the placemats as far as I can see.CPR 1 wrote: ↑09:30 Wed 22 May 2024Yes the first post has been updatedAlex Bridgeman wrote: ↑07:24 Wed 22 May 2024

Are you hypothesising Mackenzie 1977 and Martinez 1977 before or after consulting the book? As for Martha, well, tut tut.
In a few days the placemats will be updated, after a small improvement to the software is done.
