Little did foodies
Rick and Angela Turnamere know what they were letting themselves in for
when they successfully bid for a wine tasting donated by myself, at a recent charity auction.
Riotous scenes
ensued as the couple, along with 10 of their friends, ploughed their way
through the 10 wines I had brought along, which included a blanc de
noirs champagne and a delicious Hungarian Tokaji.
As it was Valentine's week, I had also recently given a talk on 'Food
and the Art of Seduction', and was persuaded to include this as part of
the tasting. Having listened to a reading of D H Lawrence's seductive
poem 'Figs', everyone soon got in the mood for something more
adventurous so, with a borrowed sword, we had a spot of sabring. My
first experience of this, and not as difficult as I thought it might be.
A riotous evening all round.
The hostess, Angela Turnamere commented 'At the
auction we googled Linda before we started bidding, and soon realised
that we were going to have a great time, and a lot of fun. This was no
ordinary wine tasting, it really was amazing, and I can't wait to get
her to come and do another one.'
