@davidroundmw it’s very quiet on here

@BethKellyMW Me!

First time here in months, just to talk Eurovision. Who is watching?

@Alix_cu no eurovision?

@robertjoseph also obviously legally you can only bottle Champagne in certain size bottles - don’t think pint size is one of them

A few problems 1) No one makes pint-sized wine bottles 2) their price, when available will make a pint bottle cost nearly as much as a standard one 3) No one in the UK has requested them 4) No one outside the UK wants them or - in the EU - would be allowed to buy them

@S_Hammond please can you find out what is happening with the footbridge at motspur park? A big group of people missed their train this morning as the level crossing barriers stayed down at a point they normally go up.

@jayrayner1 do you know that Regina Bisteca in Florence has a shrine to you?

@2_greenwood they should have been in my original list!

@BethKellyMW Domini Veneti

Hi, lovely twitter people. Aside from Inama and Pieropan who do you rate as a producer in Soave?

@WineBookClubUK I’m ploughing through the booker list at the moment - but is there a september book???

A big thank you to @joannasimon for making Ormarine's Villemarin Picpoul de Pinet 2022 her wine of the week, just in time for the start of native oyster season tomorrow, 1st Sept. So get shucking and enjoy this delicious pairing! Available @majesticwine £11.99 or £9.99 mix 6

Garlic Watch: the shop over the road actually and some pretty decent gamecube today

@WineBookClubUK though one of the it’s fellow women’s prize short list I thought was better - black butterflies

@WineBookClubUK ah no just seen this. I’ve just finished it though. Great book.

@WineBookClubUK are we reading a booker long list for this months book club???

@mattwallswine yes!

Air hockey should an Olympic sport

@mattwallswine I wonder if white and rose wines can be oxidised? As apparently they can’t be corked 🤦‍♀️

Enjoying some classic service in France… Me: I’m afraid it’s oxidised ☹️ Waitress: 😨 I’ll get the Boss. Boss: “it’s not oxidised. Can I try it?” Me: sure B smells the wine: “it’s the Mourvèdre. Let’s decant it.” Me: ok 🤔 Later… me: it’s worse B, FURIOUS: ok I’ll replace it 🙄

@smithbarryc Yeah, but Barbie….

Saw Oppenheimer. Beautifully made. Fiercely intelligent script and deeply emotional. Academic scenes not caricatured, realistic locations, credible feeling of intellectual straining. Relentless soundtrack maintains intensity and, as Nolan predicts, wrung out at the end. Stunning

@daniellemercer just finished it and loved it.

I’m half way through Demon Copperhead and in love. Things are on the up. Please tell me I’m not going to get my heart broken

I’ve never been more disappointed in Ruislip and Uxbridge

@AdrianPAtkinson so sad
