ASK THE NEXT PERSON ANYTHING ! GAME !

I actually have vineyards all around me within a few minutes drive.....and no I can't sorry :lol:.....The grapes around here are the best wine grape but horrible to eat.

Are you a wine drinker?
 
I'd love to visit England, so OK....:lol:

Do you hate the fact I can drive less than 20 minutes in any direction and get some of the best reds in the world from the cellar door of the winery that makes it....:D????
 
Here is a section from Wikipedia:

Experts agree that the Lower Hunter shouldn't be able to grow such great wines because the climate is not what could be called ideal....extremely hot summers and freezing winters with frequent frost present a constant challenge to vineyard managers and winemakers alike. These experts also agree that the saving graces of the region are the mountains which encircle three sides of the valley, the cloud cover, and afternoon easterly sea breezes which during summer help to mitigate the blazing sunshine and keep humidity moderated in the crucible of the valley floor. The differing soil types encountered vary so much ranging from rich red volcanic soil from the long-extinct volcano of Mount View and sandy loam which benefits most white varieties. The much-prized red volcanic soil is fickle to say the least as it occurs mostly on the southern ridges however it can be found in patches on the valley floor that dive under the sandy loam only to re-appear across the road in a neighbour's vineyard! Winemaking in the Lower Hunter Valley can definitely be a battle with nature.

I really should take more photos while i'm in pokolbin as it really is a beautiful place.....

Does that answer your question?
 
I'd believe it for sure.....

Should I crack open a nice bottle of red this evening??

(I'll be making a black bean stir fry so a red should go well...)
 
because I don't want to just yet.....Plus I couldn't sit down and drink a whole bottle of port but I can drink a whole bottle of red...:)

Why are you so keen for me to drink the 44?
 
Nope i haven't (you are right about the port too, b-days 10th april pip)


Have i got any chance of relieving pip of the '44?
 
Because millworkman jestingly said that the throwdown was fixed, thp put up a :cry: kinda face and i said i enjoyed making thp sad :P


Have you watched the youtube clip i posted yet?
 
Yeah. Kinda disturbing cause the Family Guy looks like one of my uncles.

What name is the worst out of Dwight, Dale, and Doyle?
 
Lol, Dwight's my father's name. It'd work in a trailer park, but is a good black name too.

Been in (or through) more- earthquakes, tornados, floods, or wildfires?
 
Hurricanes.

I know a Dwight in a trailer park. For real. How do tornadoes find trailer parks?
 
More like how can they not? Tornado alley's full of 'em. Parks that is- I've crashed in more than a few!

Have we as a society finally come to the conclusion that five blades in one head is enough for a shaving razor?
 
I bought the Mach 3 when it was state-of-the-art. :( Now it's vintage. 3 blades!!! Not enough! LOL

Is 21 enough?
