Don't try this at home, folks. This man is a professional.

I've mastered the art of appearing interested while being totally and utterly zoned out of the sales spiel at the same time. Talk about coincidences. He initiated the softening up process by flicking me a bottle of - New Zealand Montana sauvignon blanc of which I am now about two thirds through. I'm not sure how he was handling the temporary garlic/ cheese halitosis trip but eventually he hit me with the tried and tested - but you'll only need x amount of punters to grace your doorway and you'll easily recoup the x amount of dollars outlayed. I said - fantastic, I'll monitor the situation and see how well your publication is received in the industry and I'll review the situation before going to press next year. Couldn't be fairer than that.

Food related. Kiwi wine and seafood. Very nice.

Do Mussels have lips? Green? And dont forget the cheese and onion crisps

The shell has a green lip Big Iain.

Your should have had some Kimchee too Dog.

Kimchee. Noted and filed.

I dare you to eat a can o' beans now!

Kimchee's on my dinner menu tonight! It will be hucked in when I finish sauteeing the beef, onions, garlic in sesame oil! :-)

I doubt he would have hung around for too long regardless, don't know why but I just know I'm right. I also imagine the blue cheese reminds you of your legs. Am I right pops, am I, oh do say I am?

Thanks Mockchoc

My pleasure Iain.
