WINE DINNERS WITH PRODUCERS :聽update We have a very few places left for the wine dinner with the very charming Andrea Sottimano at Quo Vadis on next Wednesday 21st November. Andrea’s Barbarescos have been getting rave reviews in recent issues of聽the Wine Advocate and Wine Spectator – time to get in before the prices go stratospheric.
David Porter, who has been such a lynchpin聽the office team here for the last several years, has been quite badly hurt when knocked off his bicycle in the New King’s Road on the way to work three weeks ago, and with a broken left聽elbow and three fingers of his right hand, will be unable to work for some time. Our hearts go out to him (wishing him a speedy return to the office), but also聽to his wife Sarah who also has their聽two small daughter to look after.聽All of the rest of the L&S team are pulling togther to try to make sure that the service you have come to expect remains unaltered, but there may be moments when we have to prioritise the urgent over the next few weeks leading up to Christmas.
