LET'S HAVE A COMPANION ACTIVITY
Thu 28 May 2020 at: 09:00 to 23:00
Anywhere you like, as long as it is local to both of you.

Happy to say the Authorities have relaxed some Lockdown measures.  You can share an activity with a companion who is not of your household, as long as you meet outside, part outside, and keep social distancing.  So now you can walk, cycle, golf, go angling, even sit on opposite ends of a park bench together as long as you keep your distance.  I would even invite my companion to sit on my garden wall while I got them a drink, but that is just me.  If you would like to companion up with someone in the London IVC please contact me forestepping@yahoo.co.uk and I'll post it.  All the best from David.

Location visible to members

Ann is our host tonight and if it's warm enough we'll be in her garden for at least the early part of the evening. This time we'll be focusing on wines made from a single grape variety: Riesling for the whites and Syrah/Shiraz for the reds. We will taste the wines in pairs, with one from Europe and the other from the rest of the world. As we don't try Riesling all that often 8 of the 12 bottles will be Riesling,  including 2 bottles of sweet wine with which we will finish.
