It's been a wet and wild weekend here. All soccer cancelled so we did a bit of shopping and crazy golf instead. I'm heading of to Perth tomorrow afternoon (work) so this weeks Blog entry is on Saturday.
The kids are both well but a little tired from endless sport, school and constant colds & sniffles that we all seem to be unable to shake.
Emma is a little weary today. Last night we had a wine tasting for 15 people. I had the fun job of choosing the wine and being the 'wine expert' for the night. We got through 10 wines, 2 beers and 2 vodkas. I could tell that Emma had been enjoying the first 6 wines as she swore blind that the $20 vodka tasted better than the $70 vodka - she was in a minority of 1. She did do better than our friend Nigel. Our first round was Champagne - Nigel confidently told everyone that the first wine was Moet & Chandon, no doubt, he could taste the quality and was experienced with good champagne. I took great pleasure informing him that he had just been drinking a $7 bubbly from New Zealand.
Generally most people preferred the more expensive wines although I have to say that whether they were cheap or expensive, good or bad - every bottle was empty by the early hours of this morning.
More soon.
Ken
