    Opened the last bottle of wine from my loft/cellar. last year this time I had 280 bottles scuttled away but had found it difficult to find time keep production up. Thankfully Grapefest this year has renewed my enthusiasm and given me the push to make time. And the wine is a Selection Vieux Chateau Du Roi started February 2011

    Currently enjoying a pint of 'Houston Deluge' Homebrewed American Pale Ale. Rather tasty litttle drink at 16 days old. I should really follow my own advice about leaving it for 3-4 weeks before drinking. I only wanted to see how it was carbonating... (it's a bit flat for an American Ale, but has about as much fizz as a cask ale)

    Sounds nice Dave . I've never been a fan of camping but compromised and bought a static with a beach only a few minutes walk. It is only an hour away from home so we can be here at 5pm on a Friday after school. The kids and the other half are down here for the 6 weeks of the summer holiday and I'm popping backwards and forwards. You can't beat a Galaxy S3 with mobile hotspot

    It's a 4 berth mobile Rob (23 foot long), with a fixed bed (Coachman VIP). Here on a season long pitch though - so great for weekends away, as well as main summer hols. Got all mod-cons though - including a Sat Dish on the roof LOL! Although i'm sleeping in the awning! Once a tenty, always a tenty!! ) Thank heavens for all-you-can eat data from 3, and my trusty Galaxy S3 as a mobile hotspot!

    Just back from the Proms: got a gang together and took a box (dontcha-no), very happy event, wonderfuls spectacle, great music. Wine supplied by Dick Turpin and brewed by his brother Ric Turpentine, Train home 30 degree mausoleum at snail's pace, so needed a refresher...... 18 month old lychee a la Bob. Hits all the boxes!

    At the moment I'm drinking a Piccini Prosecco Vino Spumante Extra Dry, which is very tastefull. It is a pretty expensive one, but my brother gave me a voucher which he found on http://www.voucherbox.co.uk/ with 50 % of on Tesco's wine, so I could afford it this time They often have these kinds of discounts, so if you're interested, you should keep an eye on it. I'll just enjoy the sun now with my lovely prosecco.

    Tesco Finest Manzanilla sherry. Straight from the fridge, on a warm evening. Fantastic.
