I'm flying on Saturday 7th, so won't be there unfortunately.

I will, however, be flying from at EDI at the same time that EI147, KARFA, Tobias-UK, madfish etc are arriving from LHR and I have a voucher for a free bottle of (house) wine from Amarone if any of you would like it I can hand it over? (I have never had the house wine there so I have no idea if it is any good!!)

I know that you want decline responses rather than confirmations (and I do not want any more black marks for causing more confusion ) but following the trend of recent posts, I am happy to confirm that my + 1 and I are looking forward to the evening.

One bottle between you all? You won't last long in Scotland with that mentality!

I know, but I was under the impression that most members of FT did not drink alcohol. Have I got that wrong?

Is it OK to be 15 mins late to Amarone ?
I'm in Leeds & York that day and my train is due into Waverley at 2024 and I can leg it up the hill quickly. I'm willing to pre-select food to save holding everyone up.
If its a problem I can just pop back for drinks later.

That's very kind of you Down Low, thank you!

I've done a very quick raffle for the bottle and guess what................ PETER01 Jnr won!

If you could pass the voucher to Tobias-UK for safekeeping as I don't trust any of the others

Thanks for the posts and the replies so far to PM's re confirmation of attendence.
