Hawks Win - and oh, I will celebrate
Monday, 29 September 2008 | 
One of my fave customers, Jim Power, asked on a text " What special bottle did
you pull from the cellar to celebrate the Hawks win ?"
Sadly the tipple of the day was Bundaberg rum (a couple at the G) but which was freely flowing at the Tower Hotel where with hundreds of people half my age (it seemed) we celebrated long into the night dissecting every goal, kick, point, tactic and terrible decision from McLaren.
Sometimes , even I need a DOW (day off wine), but make no mistake a very good bottle shall be opened this week when I replay the Grand Final in nicely controlled circumstances of my lounge room having decanted a Chave Hermitage (after a cleansing Champagne) to see Crawf and the boys do it again; " Now that's what I'm talking about !!"
P.s. Dave Powell (Torbreck) is another Bundy-swilling maniac in between wine life. He says "we are reincarnated pirates !!"
