I was working today and could not make the auction. What auction? – ah that auction of Michael Lynn’s wine collection that he didn’t take with him when he flit and some other household goods. No sign of the hippo.

If I had been present I could have purchased some Warwick Estate. (Read all about their wines on their blog!) or indeed some of the above. There was a damaged telly going also. It’s all a bit sad really.

However I do still have the champagne I won at the blog awards of which Michael had a large part to play…and very fine champers I’m sure it is too!
