Rockfords discussion

Has anyone else here entered the lottery for a spot on the 2023 Steam Powered Dinner cruises on the PS Marion?
 
I didn't know there was a lottery.
Not sure how you found out.

I received an email from Corinne. I suspect I'm on the mailing list as I was booked to go in 2020 which was obviously cancelled. They cancelled last year as well due to Covid restrictions. So I think those who has previously been booked were notified.

Prior to this year it was on a first come first served basis.
 
Anyone got lucky scoring a spot on the PS Marion dinner?

I got negative reply and now on the waitlist.

Maybe next time…
 
I didn't apply as I am planning other visits anyway so will leave that experience a few years down the track perhaps.

Not sure if anyone else used up their allocation of the 2021 Alicante earlier this year, but I noticed recently that my allocation has been reset, or extended, and I'm now able to get an additional 24 bottles.

Quick squiz suggests I can buy no more than 48. Not my style however, so will be a pass for me.

Previously I could only buy 24 of the 2021, then it reset recently as I suggested, and another 24 became available. So perhaps if you didn't take up the original 24 you now have 48? My records seem to suggest I was buying the 2021 in July last year, but it's August and the 2022 hasn't been released this year, so perhaps they're just trying to clear inventory before release?
 
Depending on the number of guests and the day on which you want to go, you might have to book 12 months in advance for a lunch.
Corinne is the go to person and I'm pretty sure she only works Tue, Wed and Thurs till 3:00pm
