@jayrayner1 Totally agree with your sentiments about dogs & owners. We have excluded ourselves from our local, small, proper coffee shop for same reason. It's even worse when the dogs start barking at each other.

Lovely, lively evening @Bhamwineschool last night. @New Hall Hotel Sutton Coldfield is proving a great venue. Join us soon?

@annemchale @BeaujolaisUK Thank you for the presentation, Anne. It was interesting to taste the nuances of difference in the cru wines.

@WestLondonWine Used to be an English teacher, sorry. Old habits .....

[Geoffrey Bolton @geoffwine]

Sutton night @Bhamwineschool Cabernet evening. Napa Cellars & Ch. d'Esurac top two wines. Audience really involved - thanks.

@jamiegoode Still have problems with finding stock that is well reviewed. National adverts in press but no stock in local branches. Very frustrating.

[@LidlGB @LidlGB]

@geoffwine Hi Geoffrey, sorry to hear of your disappointment. Our wines are very popular and subject to availability. We apologise for any frustration caused.

[Geoffrey Bolton @geoffwine]

@LidlUK Appreciate the reply. Are your buyers underestimating the demand or sourcing from suppliers who are not able produce enough? Aren't these some of the basic rules of purchasing? If you go to the @TheWineSociety Community website you'll see many comments about Lidl's wine stocking.

[Geoffrey Bolton @geoffwine]

@LidlUK Do your wine reviewers actually check if wines are in store? It's repeatedly frustrating - but now comic - story. Wine well reviewed; like to try it; local store has no stock. Lidl surprise.

Arg & Chile @Bhamwineschool Hol Inn Friday. Lots of interesting wines and people. Good discussion. Looking forward to USA & South Africa on Fri.
