Drinking the dump bucket is a GOOD IDEA for Fred's punishment.

See all it took was a little brash leadership on my part to get this baby out to 5 pages. Oh and if you old guys think this is some kind of hazing ritual where you get to hand down punishment think again. And what makes you think I wouldn't drink the dump bucket because I like it? Just so long as it's the dump bucket not the spit bucket. So far we have two for Dino and April 1 is leading the charge.

Yeah, but he'll probably be looking forward to that....

Mrs. T and I are available for April 01, but April 02 is her birthday and there's the outside chance that we'll be celebrating her day on the 1st....will advise.

Have fun in London Alex and don't worry about the wine I read a post recently on DonRockWell from a guy who brought a vertical of Montebello into Dino. I think we'll be fine.

TJ-
For a guy who thinks he can do a better job than "W" you're doing a miserable job of lobbying Corduroy as your choice....the Dem's are running away with the vote and right now the vote is DINO! oh yeah and April 1st.

Your a little late to that party but funny just the same norm. Anyone who makes an April Fools joke has to step up big time on the vino!

If you guys do go to Dino could you do me a favor?

Could you ask the owner/manager if there is any relationship with a restaurant by the same name in Florence?

One of the best meals I have ever had was at a restaurant in Florence named Dino. That restaurant seems to no longer exist. Unlikely to be related, but curious...

Thanks!

Can we confirm the venue and the number of attendees, since the date is fast approaching?

I am in. Is it for sure Saturday April 1 now and at Dino?

Not sure about Mrs. TJ, I will check to see and report back. For now mark me down as 1.

And gents, we have only about 50 posts so far. What's wrong with you?

No. I am going to miss Fred dearly, but I can't help but think that this is some sort of cheap ploy to get a free dinner. We are buying Fred dinner aren't we?
