          Very much depends on how many attending etc

          but normal start time is around 10.30

            Holiday over. Its a long haul to Christmas. Luckily Grapefest is just around the corner.

            I find myself in the peculiar position of not really having any wine that is actually ready and bottled to bring yet.

            I shall chastise myself and try much much harder over the next couple of weeks.

            Hurrah.

              I haven't got much either. Must get the torch out and have a better look.

                Well it's nearly that time again, as usual I will be bringing some supplies, sulphite, yeasts, oak chips, 33ltr & 65ltr buckets etc etc.
                As with previous years I will have a premium kit for the raffle, and my good lady will knock up some grub for later in the evening.
                Anyone wanting supplies bringing on the day please send me a PM.

                  Cool!

                  Before i bung you a PM Karl, just a quick question - will you be able to get hold of some Rohapect VR-C Enzyme again (or anything similar)? That seemed to work really well with the grapes last year. I thought i'd ask because i cant sem to see it listed on your web site???

                      OK, I'm coming! But I'll only really be able to make it about 11am until 5 or 6ish on the saturday if that's ok and doesn't seem too presumptuous? I have kids swimming lessons in the morning and it's our wedding anniversary too so would like to stop for the party but I'll be wining and dining the missus instead...

                          I am. Work commitments and child care issues means it is a no go. Hopefully will be able to make next year.

                          Was looking forward to meeting everyone, putting names to faces, etc.

                            awww

                            sorry to hear that

                            as you say there is always next year

                            or if the South African grapes ever show up, maybe spring time
