I might just book an adjacent table with AndrewPC and we can sit and drink DRC all evening next to the offical Auswine table.

For what it's worth I'll be bringing a 1er cru Chablis, maybe something non-Burg too.

Awesome, thanks guys. I've also changed what I'll bring to a 'proper' (according to the guys at the wine shop) white burg, a 2009 Leflaive & Associes Rully 1er Cru, and some sort of comparable Aussie Chardonnay.

Alex - I'd suggest sending mse a PM and give him until Monday or something to respond..he didn't show up on Wednesday so not sure if something is up but the lack of response is a bit worrying (I'm worried something might've happened) but as it pertains to the offline, might as well give someone else the chance to go...

Tried, my PM system is busted. Keeps sending to my outbox instead of sending proper. Could you send him a PM, Kev?

Outbox is quite normal, doesn't move from there until the recipient logs in....

Do you know if AndrewPC is still interested? I hear he just got posted to a new job in India and can't get any emails.

Andrew was interested last week
.
How is everyone getting there btw?
I vote for no more offlines on a weeknight that isn't walkable from the train
.

Light rail is three minute walk away from memory.

It's about .5km from Glebe Light rail..which is about 20 from central..but might be better than taking the bus from central during that time....

Okay so at the risk of upsetting mse, andrew - you're in. Sorry rooman, but don't worry there'll always be another offline. Also there's still time for others to drop out, it's happened before with people coming down with last minute illnesses or having things pop up at the last second.
