Mark me down as interested, but will have to confirm closer to the date depending on She Who MUST Be Obeyed. :shock:
I have a friend who has been known to refer to other's wives as "The Handbrake", but I would never be that mean. :D

Should I keep an eye out for a good muscat then? Perhaps a Muscat and Dessert theme? :? :wink:

I'd leave your eye "in" 'cause you might not see the Muscat. I will bring a good one plus a couple of good reds from the 91 vintage.

I will locate a 91 also then. Anyone else want to bring along a 91 red (or white for that matter)?

Mike - I'm attending a wedding that weekend so it's not possible, but hope the night is a goody, and whatever happens, Davo will always lead you astray in the nicest possible way.

cheers, brad

If it is going to have a 91 theme, i will have to save the only one i have - a Seppelt "Milennium Release" FRS (to borrow an abbreviation i have just learned and like already). It was to be drunk at New Years, but i guess i can open either a 96 Yalumba D Black, or a 90 Seppelt Show Reserve... 8)

I was thinking of a couple of 95's I have which are begging to be opened... hmmmmm, forward planning! :roll: :wink:

How far astray are we looking at? :shock: As far as drinking too much and enjoying ourselves? :D Definitely nice!

Glad you are paying attention is class Cranky. :wink: Watch out for that Davo fellow when a "wise man from the East arrives" (like Mike) cause Davo will be leading you astray big time! Take a back up liver to the off line.

91! I wasn't even in Oz then, so it'll have to be a more recent vintage for me. But should be able to attend.

Cheers, Duncan

Guys, I need numbers and a preference for Friday the 14th or Saturday 16th.

Venue possibly "Romany" but am open to suggestions.

I guess you mean Sat 15th. That's our preference, but doesn't matter too much. Never heard of Romany, but we don't care about the food - we'll be bringing that :-)

Cheers, Duncan

That would be the landmark classis Italian place on William St, Northbridge, right?

Saturday would suit me better, but I may not be able to come along. My "better half" is having generic fears of me meeting weird strangers from internet chat rooms.... :oops: :roll:
If I am allowed out, is it BYO fine Chianti, hockey mask and axe?

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

I have given up wearing hockey masks and carrying axes. After a few wines I turn green and get quite large and, to pinch your name, cranky. Can't work out why it happens.

Count me in, might not be able to muster a '91, but I'm sure that I can find something close.

Regards,

Peter.

...and the magic word for today is &^%$# :!:

The lovely Mrs cranky forgot when this "potential" dinner was and organised a night out with her father! AFTER i had sent a note to a few drinking buddies to see if I could get some backup in case Dr Davo "Yes you do need a spare liver to go with my Fava beans" Lecter and Mike "The Cantankerous Hulk" Muscat and friends decided that I looked tastier than the lasagna. :shock: :roll: :wink:

None my buddies could make it either, by the way.

Of well, I guess that I can save that 1997 Isole e Olena Chianti Classico for another time... it probably will appreciate a bit more aging.

I will still get to drink too much with my father-in-law, though! :D

Have a great time!!

Cheers

Now I am getting cranky, Cranky.

Guys, we are booked for "Romany" (that is Romany and not Romano's which is a dead beat nightclub) Saturday the 15th of January, 7:00 pm. It is at the Horseshoe Bridge end of William Street in Northbridge.

See you there.
