Rock Gods?

 

The recent Artemis 2 rocket that passed around the dark side of the Moon took 42 minutes and 50 seconds to transition, during this time communication with Earth was cut (i.e. the Moon was in the way!) This fact is scary enough but not as spooky as the fact that the running time of the Pink Floyd album "Dark Side of the Moon" is exactly 42 minutes and 50 seconds. Gilmour = God? you heard it here first!

Lafite of the Languedoc


We had a bottle of this the other weekend, it's a wine from the South of France (Languedoc) called "Mas de Daumas Gassac" It's made from Cabernet Sauvignon (80% - a grape not usually used much in the far South) along with a mix of more indigenous varietals such as Grenache and Cinsault. I've been a big fan of this wine for many years, the concentration and depth of flavour is invariably superb and the tasting cues just a little left of centre giving it lasting appeal. It's often referred to as "the Lafite of the Languedoc" a nickname thoroughly well deserved IMO, good value for money, especially when compared to the real Lafite from Bordeaux!

Midweek Mirth


Whatever happened to the "Metaverse"? When are these "Tech-bros" going to realise that real reality is much more interesting than a crappy virtual reality created by people who exhibit minimal social skills..

Snow Like


Lot's of blossom around at the moment, taken last weekend, here's a particularly beautiful example next to our local church, almost snow like and a lovely blue sky to go with it!
