Things are a bit slow this time of year, but not to worry I'm still here drinking Spanish wine. i kicked the year off with a 40 wine tasting yesterday afternoon, but the tasting pile is empty at the moment. I've got some new stuff on the way, plus a few cellar dwellers ready for tasting over the next couple of weeks. I plan to do a bit more food this year too, I've just posted my highly coveted paella (or arroz) recipe and its perfect to cook outside while downing some good rosado..
My camera has suffered a bit over the break, a bit too much travel and old age has forced an early retirement. So there will be no new pictures for a week or so until the new one turns up. I expect the quality of the photos to increase hugely, so stay tuned.
Dave,
Happy new year!
Looking forward to the photos. What sort of camera are you planning on?
Happy new year to you too.
I picked up a canon 400D very cheap to replace my digital point and shoot and my old canon F1 film SLR. I went with a 17-55 IS lens to kick things off. Photography is almost as bad a habbit as wine, always looking for that next cool lens etc!
Surely one of the redeeming things about life is being able to buy ‘boy toys’ like cameras, wine gadgets, watches . . .
Yeah for sure, the problem is deciding what to buy! I’m trying to keep it to a couple of interests these days, but wine is still getting most of the attention (i.e. cash)
Looking foreward to all of them Dave. In my opinion you’ve got one of Australia’s best wineblogs that are worth reading even after a long and lazy non-posting holiday. Happy New Year and keep up the good work. I promise I’ll drink a bit more Spanish myself.
Well thats high praise indeed, thanks. I’ve been enjoying your trip through italy lately, very informative. I need to look more at italy, but I’ve got my hands full with Spain!
