Could be worse, Bunny. The Resident Rock Musician seems to have tired of his new toy already! Maybe Iain's charms were not so obvious when he was fully dressed!?

Thank you, Happy Valentines to you too! In truth my stuff is all over the place, but all lower this afternoon, not complaining though, apart from one glaring aberration (FX) things generally going ok lately, biggest hassle being missed opportunities....GRRR.

Do you know Priscilla I hadn't noticed the absent strumming
this afternoon, haven't seen Iain about in here all day, maybe
they have a gig in the tea-rooms up the road? ;>)
Stormy - FX - nothing to do with the dollar is it?

For St. Valentine's Day, I can think of no finer tipple than Mumm Napa's excellent pale pink Blanc de Noirs.
For your delight and delectation, I append the vineyard's notes. If any ladies would care to accompany me on a visit there, you are assured of a warm welcome, a fine wine-tasting, stunning scenery and sunshine.
Blanc de Noirs, literally "white of blacks," is a sparkling wine made primarily from dark skinned grapes. In Californian sparkling winemaking, blanc de noirs is used to describe slightly colored wines that range from light golden colors to ros It is a delicate balancing act to create a superior Blanc de Noirs - the grape skins must be quickly removed from the juice after the grapes have been crushed to prevent the grape's dark skin from transferring too much color to the wine. This wine is a triumph of that skill by our winemakers and their team.
WINEMAKER NOTES
A charming pale salmon color introduces this wine, and follows with a bouquet of ripe Pinot Noir fruit. Part of the wine is initially fermented in the press, producing a soft fruity character that gives Blanc de Noirs its directness, while a small percentage of Chardonnay gives the wine power and structure.
This more robust quality makes Blanc de Noirs a wonderful wine with many kinds of cuisine, ranging from Thai to Italian. Pair it with caviar and smoked fish, avocado and crab salad or sauced shellfish, vegetable and cheese souffl.

I just had to translate the winemaker notes as I believe in the campaign for plain English so here goes:
A charming pale salmon color introduces this wine, - PINK
and follows with a bouquet of ripe Pinot Noir fruit. - SMELLS OF OVER-RIPE GRAPES
Part of the wine is initially fermented in the press, producing a soft fruity character that gives Blanc de Noirs its directness, - MAKES YOUR TEETH VIBRATE
while a small percentage of Chardonnay gives the wine power and structure. - ADDED TO GIVE IT SOME FLAVOUR
-----------------------------
Good evening all. Happy Valentines to all the ladies.
