Status: offline 		I should hit 1000 tasting notes next year some time and join the triple mega club. It's possible that next year I could join what I'm calling in my mind the Mega, Mega, Bo-Bega Club of 1000 posts, 1000 notes 1000 in inventory and (drum roll, please), 10,000 bottles tracked! (Bottles tracked is cellar plus consumed= purchased.) I'm not sure whether reaching all those milestones should be cause for a party, an intervention, of possibly both.

I am hoping to follow in your footstep Dennis. I can't go above 900, as that is insane on my part.

So working on the 1000 TNs and getting fat while doing this.


Heh. Yeah, I bet....

"Fat" must have quite a subjectively wide range...

The long-established tradition is that new megas send a bottle of grand cru to every other mega, and we, ah, age them for you.
