BWE DC 2021: October 2nd Saturday dinner - details, final count

[DavidG]

Hope you can make it Tim. No worries, I'll hold off another day.

I'm also sure Marcus has just let this slip his mind, but I wanted to tease him. I think a late fee of a bottle of 1989 Lynch Bages would be appropriate, no?

[tim]

Ok, I'm still in! Yay!

[Jay Winton]

Ok, I'm still in! Yay!

Excellent!

Jill and I are regrettably dropping out. We have some issues that just surfaced and need to be taken care of and unfortunately the dates clash with the convention.
I understand that the money we have sent to David and Joel may be forfeited. If that's the case so be it.
Sorry guys, our loss but we'll catch you next time.

So sorry to hear that, Jacques. I hope we can find make-up dates in the near future where we can drink a fine red from the northern Medoc together (and a few Chassagne)!

[DavidG]

Tim, delighted you can make it So!

So sorry Jacques. We'll miss you and Jill! Hope all is well.. I'll follow up about a refund, think it should be possible.

Marcus, do or die time. You in or out?

Thank you David.

Definitely, Patrick.

Sorry you both can't make it. I was looking forward to meeting/tasting with you. The dinner refund should be ok for Friday as well, I'll just need to confirm later on this if thats alright.

[jal]

Thank you Joel,
There will be other opportunities.

[DavidG]

Marcus is in…

…and we’re at 30 for the final count.

[Hm$(still)]

Ugh, I was really looking forward to seeing you and Jill…..

Hm$

[DavidG]

It turns out that Charlie Palmer is closed to the public on Saturdays since COVID. They only do private events. So we will have the place to ourselves.

[JCNorthway]

Very interesting. So the only people there on Saturday will be private parties? Perhaps we will find some other interesting private parties!

[DavidG]

We will be the only private party. Just us and the staff. The other group that they moved from the Alcove to the roof to accommodate us must have dropped out.

[JimHow]

Can somebody bring some tinfoil, I have a RMP100 mystery wine for Saturday night.

[DavidG]

I’ll bring some.
