Will do. I don't drink though (hope you won't find me a joy killer, as I'm allergic to alcohol). Went to an FC store to finish Amex offers today; after finish I remembered the post so I asked the super nice and professional staff member for advice, and bought this red as recommended! Double confirmed it should fall into the definition of "decent, quality", and the staff member rested me assured about that, a bit amusedly. I'm still not so sure and I do hope it's a good one.

Cash sounds a bit...not in the spirit of a cashless life generally characterised by AFFers who normally like credit/charge cards. But fair enough, as this gathering involves a large group of people. I do remember back in May when Amex had that dinning offer, OT was on the participating list and a friend and I went there a few times, and we did split payments (OT allowed that which is really great)! Again it's not practicable and nice to ask for split payments among so many of us this time though, hah.

Looking forward to this meetup!
