A man who knows his beans… Joe Wadsack of course managed to sniff out one of the most talked about wines of SITTastings 2024… Naudé Wines Soutbos 2023 from the West Coast. 😲🍷#97/100 GSMW










Right. The lovely people from Wines of Victoria sent me premium economy to Oz as they know I’m quite a unit. Word to the wise.the prem economy seat on Cathay Pacific A350-900 is so small and short that I can’t sit straight and seat so shallow, I can’t open the table on my lap…

…Seat is so short that the headrest is in my BACK with no head support at all. And the remote doesn’t work, despite mentioning it several times, it is still stuck in the seat two hours into the flight. It’s stiflingly hot too. Cathay Pacific were supposed to have superior food..

…too. I had a massive plate of unseasoned polenta and dry chicken. Just been told off for ordering 2 drinks at once. I am 2 hours into a back breaking 12 hour leg to Hong Kong Cathay Pacific God I have 3 more legs of this journey. Help me. BA economy is far more comfortable.

This NOT worth £3000 return. Appauling. Exhausted with not enough room to sleep, and dehydrated. Cathay Pacific what’s the next leg going to be like? #CX256 Wish I could swap for an aisle seat at least…

The regular use of proficient foreign judges at Veritas has been continued since last year again, thanks to a partnership with the Dry Ice International company, which has agreed to bring a group of foreign judges to South Africa. 2024 entries veritas.co.za/entry/



Good to see a new job announcement we can all get behind with the news Nicky burston is to be the new chief executive of the The Drinks Trust particularly as she has been a key part of the team for a number of years. Her wine industry & charity experience is good news for us all


Irish Ranger (Sevvy) That final scene wasn't scripted, and they only did one take as nobody could do another. The poppies were faded in from a BBC archive.

Jesus! Premier Inn ALWAYS been treated great by the hotel staff. 1 of UK’s great brands. BUT I have just been charged £400 for a booking I never received a confirmation for AND spent 2 hours trying to cancel. Small claims here we go. Grrr. Customer service SO rude..

Finally, Premier Inn I asked what would customer service girl do in my shoes? She said that she wasn’t in my shoes and the case was closed, and I will not be getting my money back. We’ll see about that… She needs to look up Customer Service and Guest Relations in a dictionary
