As you know, John -
Roger's 70
th birthday was Friday, the day after your 73
rd, so I had brought along a second bottle for him. Per Barbara, he has imbibed only once or twice in the past twenty years or so. Lady Ashley also had a birthday recently, so I gave the second bottle to her instead of Roger.
Maybe that explains why she didn't return my phone call last week
