Single malt and steak dinner?
Is that a special thing?
I've got steak in the fridge and a range of single malts in the cupboard so does that make me special? In a nice way, of course.
These days my boat is more likely to be floated by something I wouldn't cook for myself.
I assume doubly so for movers and shakers.
Oh, and if you haven't helped to write the Invitation to Tender then you shouldn't waste your time bidding. You aren't close enough to the customer to understand the requirements.
