'Royal Couple' Returns - Gala Dinner

[blackcat20]

Slight cellar malfunction.

The FoldPens I wanted to bring was too far back, so I have settled on an 06 Rocky and a 10 GB.

Hopefully they are adequate to get us past the garlic bread before we hit the Leconfield.

There's been a bit of a price increase on the Leconfield by the looks...

I rcvd email from Sonia and I think we might be on 2 tables tonight - I told her no biggie to just set us up as best she thinks.

We might experiment with speed dating tonight - be prepared to shift those coughs at same stage or another.

But you wouldn't split the royal couple, would you?

They will be separated - but no biggie - they can SMS each other from table to table rather than just across the same table as they normally do!

Maybe they can steal each other's pokemons

In case I missed something (earlier in the thread) as usual, are we supposed to bring only red wines tonight and nothing later than an 06? Any stipulation on variety, cork/screwcap, etc?

Good luck with that. I've barely seen him all week so no involuntary separations for us.

Blackcat20, mickeyc747 and I are in residence at HSW. Just waiting for TomVexille before we head to the exec lounge.

Enjoy the royal feast and audience with HRHes. Has the royal gathering nominated a court jester yet?!?!

Just bring a 1980s Grange, then you will fit in okay.

OK I'll see if I have any left in the cellar. If not I'll just bring along another Shiraz blend I have I guess :shock:

Sort of?

Is that a statement of "woe is me" or a statement of blissful fact?

My mother (you met her on Buzz's Claire Valley escapade) often reminds Lisa and I that we have the best marriage ever....as we don't have to endure each other constantly! Not sure if she means I'm the PITA or Lisa??? (my bet is on Lisa being the PITA).

Hang on.......there's still a flight. Can you hold?

Oh I forgot to mention that arrivees should just announce to Cecelia that you are there for the 'Gala Dinner' and she will point you to appropriate table.

Note to Goodonya - if you and Cruiserette even contemplate breaking into verse with 'Cecelia .......... your breakin' my heart' you'll both be out on your ears!

Lunch is finished and Boomy and I have had a warm up drink.

What time is kick off?

So the party-girl trouble maker is not coming? I'd say after a few wines you're usually in the "right" state
