NOTICE: PORT/MADEIRA/UK BOUND

Post by Roy Hersh »

I will be offline from Thursday, Oct. 20th through November 8th. Mario and I, will be taking a small group from this bulletin board on a tour of Port, that they will never forget. They are most fortunate to take part in this inaugural trip as there will be some things done, that we may never again repeat. They've never been to Portugal and I can guarantee, they'll never forget their first time. :D

Afterwards, Mario and I will kick back and drink some 19th century Madeira while visiting the island and preparing our itinerary for our first trip there, either in March or April. At the end of this arduous work detail, we'll head over to the UK to meet up with many of the blokes there from the Forum, that will greet us with a Port offline and some football discussions. I am going to head to my first game ever (I don't count USA soccer matches).

So please do forgive me for baing away from this BB after Thursday. I have some TNs to post before I go though.

Carry on!

Roy and Mario,

Have a safe trip and I can't wait to hear the stories and read the tasting notes.
