Mark me down as interested, but will have to confirm closer to the date depending on She Who MUST Be Obeyed.
I have a friend who has been known to refer to other's wives as "The Handbrake", but I would never be that mean.
Should I keep an eye out for a good muscat then? Perhaps a Muscat and Dessert theme?

Sounds good Davo. I should be around.

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

I just happen to have a 91 whitey

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...
I was thinking of a couple of 95's I have which are begging to be opened... hmmmmm, forward planning!
How far astray are we looking at?
As far as drinking too much and enjoying ourselves?
Definitely nice!

Glad you are paying attention is class Cranky.
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.

Can't make it unfortunately due to work commitments, but I hope it all goes well. Remind Davo to behave......

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

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.
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!
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.
