Seriously Mel, enjoy the day. Take it slow, look around, milk it. It will only happen once, and not to many. Stand tall.

Ba says " What a difference a day makes

Have been preparing for my dear folks, who are now very ill indeed. Old age is a total bastard that catches you real bad in the end

Was doing prep work and organisation all Sunday and then ready. In Dorset from sparrow farts yesterday checking our new care policy that we must provide from our own resources, the NRS equipment that we have been been given by the D NHS Trust on on loan, and seeing the new Carers for a full time Living regime.

A weird sort of living .....Give me a pill, when my time is up

Moving on .......So

A pinch and a per.....1st of the month. So I missed the party and the gold offers that have come-up at Majestic.

But more importantly here :D

Yeah, brilliant news Mel. To Southwark you must go.

Mel,

Enjoy the day and congrats once again.

Its refreshing for a MW to discuss every day wines (I know its your forum)

Other forums are very snobby and they always seem to try out doing fellow members. (mainly London though)

Had a really busy day so might just open something special tonight to celebrate with you !!

Regards
Richard

Loved it. Great to meet all the other new MWs. Nice to be centre of attention, but share it with others, because alone it can be quite intimidating. Drank quite a lot of Bolli and then had supper at Northbank. Surprisingly good Caesar's Salad as a starter and then beautifully cooked salmon. Just undercooked, but with very crispy skin. Mmm.

Good wines, but I didn't take notes. Ch Suduiraut 2005 was interesting. Left at midnight. No shame in that.
