Imagine tomorrow they announce a 5th region

Cofio Aberfan 🖤 We will never forget those that tragically lost their lives on October 21, 1966.

𝘾𝙤𝙛𝙞𝙬𝙘𝙝 𝘼𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙖𝙣 🖤 On October 21st 1966, we remember the 116 children and 28 adults who lost their lives at Pantglas School in Aberfan. Always remembered.

Do vintages matter in Australia? Freddy says absolutely. The best years, 2012, 2015 and 2018, still shine brightest, with 2012s showing lovely maturity and 2018s full of life. A few of his top picks, including Yalumba’s The Signature, feature in our Australia Fine Wine Spotlight.

Best city in the world

Genuinely intrigued to see how England get on against Aus in the Rugby League ‘Ashes’. Sort of assume it’s a bit of a mismatch.

Boss level chardy

Baseball: It’s a team sport where individuals can’t win a game on their own. Shohei Ohtani:

I don’t tweet about baseball often, but 3 home runs & 6 shutout innings must be one of the greatest single game performances of all time, let alone in the NLCS? #Ohtani #Dodgers

The concept of a drummer also being the vocalist is too weird

Being sent back by Aussie border force. 4 hours they detained me 🤣🤣 My birthday tomorrow too. My visa was legit but they weren’t happy that business was going to earn money off whilst in Oz. Being sent back to London tomorrow. Gutted.

Dare I say it, but prattling on about the wines of Savoie is now just a little bit passé.

Just listening to a podcast interviewing a very famous Aussie wine critic and I don’t think I could agree less with their philosophy. Dreadful.

A priest, a rabbit, and a bishop go donate blood. The nurse: What is your blood type? The rabbit: I’m probably a Type-O.

Was given my Coravin YEARS ago as a gift. Well intentioned but never even unboxed. Finally I’ve realised I need it! Amazing!

Haven’t been drinking much recently, feeling under the weather. But Sunday night I was gasping for a glass of wine. Problem is, I didn’t want to open a bottle that would mostly end up down the sink. Ended up drinking some absolute swill. Today I remembered - I own a Coravin!

Still, I suppose the Scarlets can take comfort from the prospect of reaping the dividends of their vertically integrated cleaning services…

@TylerCWhitmore I think I’ve discovered the worst opinion on anything of all time.

I’ve scored a few bargains at auction over the years, but I’m particularly happy with this one.
