Please tell me you didn't just touch the bottle and actually enjoyed it.

Seems that Harrods has it available

I can log into the system through https://togetherweflydelta.com/ - the non-Facebook page. And yes, apparently the 1,083 were a computational error - our discussions suggest we'll still get to 25,000.

Is it in the same place as the furs that I remember seeing?

It was a mere $1250 per shot @ the Wynncore establishment where this bottle is housed. That's a bit too rich for my blood (comp or NOT); and I had a Remy Extra that evening (usually, I either have Remy Extra or Hennessy Paradis if it's a 'high' end evening... I don't go any 'higher' than that).

IIRC, only 100 bottles were made. Of course the bottle is made by Baccarat, appropriate for baccarat_king.

That is an understatement even though March and April have worked out to be relatively light travel months for us.

Also, I never mentioned the 1083 anywhere but here since we are now accustomed to the prying eyes. It is very unlikely that any of them would come here.

I'm about to add a fourth itinerary during the promotion period for another conference - BNA-MSY (via ATL).

In college basketball it isn't the player who commits the foul who is penalized, because the refs aren't paying attention. It's the person who is fouled, and then reacts, who gets flagged.

Therefore both UP and ICU should be disqualified, granting the milepost award by default to Traveller.

Okay, I agree with that. I didn't understand it, but I agree with it.

I vote to DQ her post complaining. Thus 55,555 would be yours.
