Green is my envy, green, green, green.

Sounds like a great dinner.

The chardonnays are well made chardonnays. Some people love em but they is just chardonnays to me.

The reds are all good stuff.

The 2002 Shiraz is splendid as is the Heytsbury red, and the cabernet and Cab/merlot are excellent for the price. All well crafted wines and should go great with the food.

Clive Otto is always an interesting presenter as well.

Should be a great night.

No, not going. Long story, just wanted to get a message to Clive about the post-ball party in MR this weekend! But he won't be back obviously!
