I'm writing this now on my Beloved's laptop, sitting in the front room of the Bach, sipping a pleasant Chardonnay from the vinyard behind us (Clearview Estate)while listening to the sea gently breaking pn the beach outside. *sigh*<br /><br />looby: No. Not yet. I live in hope. Just don't mention it, OK?<br /><br />VG: Swim in the sea? I think not. I don't mind open air pools, but no sea swimming in NZ thank you very much. Cairns yes, Napier no. Too cold. I am relaxing.<br /><br />Ex-Clive: Thanks for the info, but I think I saw enough art deco last time to last me. Actually, feeling no pain is a good description of my current state. Long live the noble grape and all of its products.

Art Deco and some excellent wineries.<br /><br />Remember St Paul's advice in his first letter to Timothy: "Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities." By "water" he may have been referring to <i>uisge beatha</i>, or "water of life", commonly known as "whisky".<br /><br />I'm currently drinking an excellent (and cheap, which might interest anybody from the north of the Unravelling Kingdom) Chardonnay from the Mission, and I must say St Paul seems to be right; I'm feeling no pain.<br /><br />--Clive<br /><br />The word verification is "fixti". With a litle rearrangement it expresses perfectly what Hawkes Bay wines can do for you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2556021846818907745.post-64456048508173745102012-01-15T16:55:01.144+13:002012-01-15T16:55:01.144+13:00Don't swim in the beach on Marine Parade.
