Excellent. I'll update the attendees.

Turns out I now don’t have the Sandeman. Upon delivery turned out to be 77 rather than 97 as it had been incorrectly landed in the warehouse. Normally would obviously have been happy about this but already have as fair bit of the 77 and none of the 97. So was returned.
Don’t think anyone else has suggested they’ve got this, so we probably won’t be able to do the comparison with the Vau.
Also, suspect that by mid January holding this tasting in person might be an issue, but we’ll see what happens…

@ nac - Tonight is going to be my last chance to access my cellar before 20th January. What's the view? What should I bring back to town with me tomorrow (on a precautionary principle in case we go ahead)?

At the moment I'm looking very unlikely for this; please move me into the reserves and give Will my spot.

Neil, confirmed unable to make it now. Thanks for holding the space.
Re: 1997 @ 25, Thurs 20th January 2022 @ B&F
Neil, I have D, G and Mz in storage but retrievable if required.

Will - you’ve been promoted from the bench. Are you still available?

@ nac - Alas, I returned to town 1997-less. My apologies. I took a gloom-laden gamble on it not happening.
Re: 1997 @ 25, Thurs 20th January 2022 @ B&F
I can confirm that if we're able to go ahead I can definitely attend.
Re: 1997 @ 25, Thurs 20th January 2022 @ B&F
Having undertaken a pre-New Year rearranging of wine fridges, I can confirm that I have GC, RP, G and D.

Alas, I'll be travelling so unable to attend should a place become available...

So, it’s just over two weeks until this tasting.
Given current COVID concerns, do attendees want to go ahead with this or should we push it back until later in the year?
I’m happy to go ahead with it, but appreciate that some might be less enthusiastic, so would prefer to postpone if it means we get full attendance at a later date.
Please respond in the thread or email or PM.

Thumbs up from me to stick with the date. January is a tough month for hospitality so I'd like to throw some business towards the B&F!
Re: 1997 @ 25, Thurs 20th January 2022 @ B&F
I'm getting a bit of pressure to no attend this event along with a few other things in Jan.
therefore my vote would be to push back but i would completely understand if you where all to go ahead,
I know that i have GC, G, D, Ni, SW, will have a look to see if there is anything else, when i can do.
