AFF Wine Lovers Meet-Up 6 Jan 2016 in Sydney

[Wozza]

Dear all

I am pleased to confirm we have a quorum for the SYD Wine Lovers Meet Up on 6 January.

I am still waiting to hear back from around 6 of you, but thank you to all those who very promptly came back to me through private email.

If we get one or two more, then we'll be able to hire one of the private dining rooms, which would be nice.

It's not too late to send me a note on this thread or privately if you would like to come.

Warm regards,


Wozza

Great. You are not too late, mhen. Nor is it too late for others. We will be booking a private dining room, so increasing numbers is not an issue. The more the merrier.

Hope you all have fun and enjoy meeting each other and the fine wines

I just remembered why I couldn't make it.
It's my grandsons birthday. I knew there was a clash. Just couldn't remember what.

Will people mind if I bring a camera and write it up for my wine-blog?

I was going to ask the same on the night. Some people may say yes - like me. But some may prefer to stay off camera. We can ask on the night, and see what people say.

Looking forward to meeting you and everyone else that's coming.

You hate Sydney that much :shock:

 

[penegal]

Regrettably I might be a late scratching. I have just been told that I need to be elsewhere for work tomorrow, so may not arrive in Sydney until quite late.

I am trying to ascertain the actual finish time of my workshop and will advise.
