Thursday 5th December - Online/Virtual Tasting

Post by nac »

Mr Kneeshaw has suggested that it might be nice to do a virtual event (as per during Lockdown) before the end of the year.

So, I propose 2000 (UK time) on Thursday 5th December.

To be confirmed, but we'll use Zoom or Teams. Details will be shared via email in advance.

Theme: A Decent Port That You'd Like To Share With Yourself

Who'd like to stay in & play?

Attendees:
  • Justin K
  • Neil C
  • Rich O'N
  • Miguel
  • Mike M
  • Alex B
  • Charles R
  • PhilW (maybe)
  • Mike JW
  • Martin C
  • Mike C
  • Rob C
  • Glenn E

I could be interested but my time machine isn't quite perfected yet. Could the 5th December be a more reasonable date?

3:00 PM on the U.S. East Coast? Sounds like the perfect time to be having a glass of Port. I'm in if there's room.

I’m assuming that placemats won’t be needed. If wrong, instruct!

For all those intending to join, could you please PM me your email address.
Our "meeting" will be held using Teams...

...unless someone has a full-fat version of Zoom we could use?

This is still on, correct? Because I haven't received any emails (apologies if they haven't been sent yet).
