Very likely Lucie and I will come for both days. Lucie is recovering nicely from her knee replacement.

Great to hear, putting you on the list! Looking like we might get to 30 people with some late stragglers/DC people who may want to join.

Doing everything I can to make sure this isn't the last hurrah, Jim. But hey if it is, let's go out with a bang. A Thursday dinner is starting to tempt now..

Also, does anyone have any votes on venues?

JimHow · Post by **JimHow** » Thu Sep 08, 2022 11:10 pm

You da man, Joel! Thanks for organizing. Looking good!

I hear you Chris! Job wise, i can't take holidays on Thursday/Friday as i'm giving a course these two days. Looking for another person that can give that training is kinda hard. Could go for Saturday, but it is much travelling time for one dinner... hum?

When Dave found out Harry is coming, he said he’ll be there! See you Sat, remember the Roteboeuf

Looks like good friends Manju (was signed up for our BWE Bordeaux trip in 2020), Bill + Lynnette Cooke (came to BWE NYC, was it 2000?) and Ray + Kathy Mikiciuk (wine lovers that recently moved from TX to DC) are looking into joining the festivities.

I count 5 in total, should I add them all to the list for both days?

Tom In DC · Post by **Tom In DC** » Mon Sep 12, 2022 6:32 am

Gail and I are in for both nights! Traveling a lot recently and haven't had a chance to confirm.

Jay Winton · Post by **Jay Winton** » Tue Sep 13, 2022 3:24 pm

Ok, I'm in for Friday with a possible guest. Can't do Saturday at this point.

NoahR · Post by **NoahR** » Sat Sep 17, 2022 2:18 am

Will try to make it - Saturday is son’s birthday party so not sure of availability yet. Please keep me in the loop!

JimHow · Post by **JimHow** » Sat Sep 17, 2022 10:19 pm

In the cellar this weekend, last time before the big weekend, and pulled our wines for Fri (some non-Bordeaux) and Sat (82 and 62 reds and 75 Rayne Vigneau). So not as old as I normally do but I am keen to try them all.

Michael-P

Tom In DC · Post by **Tom In DC** » Tue Oct 04, 2022 5:22 pm

Gail and I are arriving Thursday and leaving Sunday morning. We're in for both Friday and Saturday.

I have to start thinking about wines!

stefan · Post by **stefan** » Tue Oct 04, 2022 6:01 pm

To compliment (sic) MichaelP's wines, I should bring 1992 and 1972 Bordeaux.

Jace · Post by **Jace** » Wed Oct 05, 2022 2:23 pm

Yes, I just got (back) on the board, and I can see it all now (thanks Chris) - have been a couple of times, but can't seem to remember what we drank

Since we're coming Friday, we will find some non-bordeaux (although I may sneak an older Pomerol one in).

JoelD · Post by **JoelD** » Fri Oct 07, 2022 8:06 pm

Hi all, the details have been completely updated. Please let me know directly if you have any questions. I will also send an email with the info out to some of the newer folks/ones that aren't on the board much. I will likely make a new post for each night separately for what people are bringing and entree orders for Saturday.

Cheers.
Joel

JimHow · Post by **JimHow** » Fri Oct 07, 2022 9:21 pm

Wow that looks awesome Joel, thanks for everything!

stefan · Post by **stefan** » Fri Oct 07, 2022 10:00 pm

Looks great, Joel. Thanks for your efforts.

Nicklasss · Post by **Nicklasss** » Sat Oct 08, 2022 2:56 am

Now is sure i won't be attending, as i will be in British Columbia from Oct 15 to 26, and giving a course on the 27 and 28 Oct, i must say the attendees listing looks great.

The setup is magnificent.

Thank you Joel for all that. We'll catch up later.

JoelD · Post by **JoelD** » Sat Oct 08, 2022 1:40 pm

My pleasure, hopefully everything turns out well.

Sorry you can't make it, Nic. You'll be missed.

Jay Winton · Post by **Jay Winton** » Sat Oct 08, 2022 2:38 pm

Thanks Joel. Venmo sent for both of us.

JimHow · Post by **JimHow** » Sat Oct 08, 2022 4:03 pm

Check in the mail.

barsacpinci · Post by **barsacpinci** » Sat Oct 08, 2022 11:34 pm

Venmo sent for Dave and I. He wants chicken and I want Beef Bourguignon. Make sure I got the amount right please. Now to figure out the wines to bring!

You're all set, Brian. I updated the post with common payment amounts as well. I'm marking everyone paid once I receive them. And also updating the Saturday entree requests.

Jay Winton · Post by **Jay Winton** » Sun Oct 09, 2022 7:16 pm

Kosta and I will both have lamb please.

DavidG · Post by **DavidG** » Mon Oct 10, 2022 12:28 am

Well done, Joel! Payment should be there.

Peggy and I would also both like lamb.

JimHow · Post by **JimHow** » Mon Oct 10, 2022 12:33 am

I'll have lamb as well.

Tom In DC · Post by **Tom In DC** » Tue Oct 11, 2022 2:56 am

Gail would like the salmon and I'll take the lamb. Thanks!

RPCV · Post by **RPCV** » Tue Oct 11, 2022 3:42 pm

Regan will have the chicken and I'll have the lamb.

Lee

marcs · Post by **marcs** » Wed Oct 12, 2022 10:24 pm

I’ll have the beef burgundy on Saturday

Can’t get enough beef burgundy!

stefan · Post by **stefan** » Wed Oct 12, 2022 11:20 pm

Joel, I just Zelled you the funds for both dinners for Lucie and me. Lucie will have steak frites and I want lamb.

Michael-P · Post by **Michael-P** » Thu Oct 13, 2022 3:45 am

Joel: I just Zelled you the funds for Nalan and I for both Fri and Sat. Nalan will have the salmon and I will have the lamb. Nalan is shellfish allergic, including cross contamination, so for Fri we need to steer around that for her. Looking forward to seeing everyone! Michael-P

You're all set MP, luckily we already have a shellfish allergy that the chef knows about so that shouldn't be a problem.

Stefan, yours is the only payment I haven't seen come through yet. Although occasionally zelle can have a day or two delay. Coincidentally that happened with MIchaelP last year. I'll let you know if I don't get it in the next few days.

stefan · Post by **stefan** » Thu Oct 13, 2022 8:30 pm

Thanks, Joel. I sent it after closing time, but BoA confirmed the transfer immediately. However, I just checked and my checking account has not been debited and under Zelle transactions there are no recent transfers listed.

JoelD · Post by **JoelD** » Tue Oct 18, 2022 11:13 pm

Bumping this up. If anyone has a change to their Saturday entree request due to the Friday venue change, it's no trouble at all as I haven't submitted the list yet. But please let me know asap if so, so I can update it here. Thanks!
