MAMA & PAPA ~ ANGELA ~ A PANTOUM !
ANGELA & BRIAN said:
So Sorry about that UNCLE ANDY : But the cases of RIOJA for the TALKS and for Gifts to the Vineyards we vistit were all sent by SEA a few Months ago : Including a mixed case for Ruth & I to enjoy with our LAMB etc ! The video is a bit long : but it does fully explain just what RIOJA is and why the 5 year old Vintages are so so wonderful but also so so expensive ! As you know : when you enter *The World of Wine* you are on another Planet and the Wine Trails in and around Auckland are very very POPULAR. It is good to see many Young People learning to enjoy & employ wine appropriately as a complement to GOOD FOOD and not just to get blathered at a Music Festival. BRIAN is a conneseur of Good Food & Wine (he makes His Job an excuse !) but he rates NZ Cuisine & Wine very Highly ! This is why He*s coming for a WHOLE WEEK in OCTOBER just to take me Home ! Thanks for your interest !
Blessings & Peace & Love to You & Joyce

Your parents must have missed my house on the way to New Zealand as I have not found any cases of Rioja in my porchway.
I am sure you will have a wonderful time with them.
Blessings to you Angela.

WHAT IS WINE ? ANGELA & BRIAN
Goldfinch60 said:
Thanks for the lesson but wine is easily chosen, you like it or you don’t like it, I have found many that I do like and am prepared to try others.
I used to make wine some years ago, most was OK but one I made was so awful that I used it to strip paint! Lol

Shurrup science teacher and get it down yer neck.... LOL
Its not about it\'s composition scientifically, its the pure enjoyment.
A chemistry lesson in sex is nothing compared to the act after all eh?

Personally, when I do drink wine, I prefer Italian red wine. My mom loves wine, but cannot drink to much because of the sulfur. Still, a little wine is good for the stomach.

DECLUTTER ~ THE RULE OF TEN ~ ANGELA & BRIAN ~ A 6 8 SONNET !
ANGELA & BRIAN said:
THANKS *OUT* for a very interesting plethora of messages & comments on the subject of Minimilism of Goods & decluttering. One intersting STATISTIC between the UK & The USA is that each AMERICAN has EIGHT TIMES more space than each British person ! This enables AMERICANS to have bigger PLOTS (YARDS) and much bigger houses(more floor area !} and you often have BASEMENTS (what we call CELLARS !) This means you have plenty of space ~ in the HOUSE & OUTBUILDINGS to store CLUTTER you are not using. In the UK we have to RECYCLE or DUMP it ! Our MANTA is *If you havent used something in 12 months ~ then get shut ~ OK*. I take you point about *QUALITY of RECORDED MUSIC* We havent got space for Decent Bass Speakers so we get used to hearing inferior recordings and forget how it should sound !
Thanks for all your Comments & Observations
Yours in Appreciation ~ ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡

I have TEN times too much clutter
Most of which is fit for the gutter
If i try to lay down
I dream that I\'ll drown
And awake with a cough and a splutter

We may be in our seventies but our house is both modern and minimalist - mind you we have far more than ten art works- six in the lounge for starters but the house is big enough. Everywhere very calming colours - in fact far less than ten throughout the house - colour injected by cushions and, of course, the art. But I love the rule of ten - great idea but don\'t stick too rigidly - there\'s room for movement either above or below this number but ten on average.

Well this caused my first laugh of the day!
I have over two thousand cassette tape from when I bought those and nearly the same amount of CDs, DVDs in the hundreds.
I do not know how I would survive with only ten books, I have had to take some to Charity Shops in the past but as I left them there there was a sadness in my heart,
As you may realise we have a lot of \'stuff\' in our house - that is why we sleep in the shed. LOL

VINEYARDS IN NEW ZEALAND (N I) ~ ANGELA ~ A SONNET !
ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Thanks FAY for us WINE is always to ameliiorate a Meal or to enjoy with CHEESES at a C& W Party. I was brought up with RIOJA from about the Age of 6 because that is our Family Wine. When we are in NZ we love to sample the Wines and the NZ whites especially are so smooth & crisp. WE both like NZ Rose with NZ Lamb because both have such a delicate FLAVOUR ! To each their OWN. When we go to a Dinner Party : we always take a Bottle (or two) but we always *drink* the Hosts choice of Wine to complement each course : and try to learn from it ! We make lots of NOTES : I because my Dad is a VINTNER and BRIAN because He teaches the Chemistry of the Wine making process : A Black Art indeed !
Thanks for your lovely comment !
Blessings & Love in the Spirit
Yours as always ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡

A lovely sortéé into the New Zealand different wines and a bit of their history - - your words take me back to the time I was first allowed to taste wine and ugh - - was it sour to my young palate......now though I enjoy the uplift of one glass with an evening meal and of course I have supped N.Z. wines too. A refreshing read dear duo.

THANKS UNCLE ANDY : As you are aware Wine Used in moderation aids digestion as well as being excellent complement to Good Food & Convivial Company. Ruth & I enjoy wine but never over indulge and are NEVER DRUNK which is unseemly for well bred Young Ladies ! My MAMA & PAPA are arriving on Tuesday (I speak to them on SKYPE regularly but havent seen tem for nearly a Year !). My PAPA is scheduled to give some Promotional Talks on Rioja Wines (popular in NZ because of their full bodiness) and visit some of the Vineyards ! The local Vitners have said *He will be very welcome : provided he brings a few bottles of RIOJA !\" Good choice of Wine Due Italiano e Quatro Nueva Zelanda ! The MARLBOROUGH WHITES are exceptional : Being a Wine Merchants Daughter I have 25 years experience of Wine Tasting. BRIAN could not believe his Good Fortune when I told Him who my Papa was !
Blessings & Peace & Love for SUNDAY to YOU & JOYCE

\"No the shops closed\"
\"No Closed Down\"
No I\'m not sitting outside there\'s someone talking a flaming picture\"
Great subject... Nostalgia
We are the change, We are to blame... Humans became bored bored with lifes inefficiencies like physically shopping. The High Street must just adapt to what we want like social and leisure experiences... We\'ll work it out... CHANGE TAX and DEATH three things you can be assured of

Miei Cari amici Angela e Brian,
Grazie per la bella poesia delle Quattro Stagioni! La mia preferita è la Primavera!
No need to apologize...
Trump knows!
It’s been raining for four days! The garden is flooded! The tomato plants along with the basil and other herbs and vegetables are not doing well. Too much water! Such a pity! Purtroppo questa è la vita!!
Abbracci e Baci...
