“A very clever industry partner organised a "Zoom" Wine and cheese evening last week and 14 of us were present from across the country. What a wonderful evening it was. With good humour and excellent wines. We were able to talk, discuss, ask Elizabeth questons and to watch slides and try superb wines. Elizabeth was notionally "in the char" but she kept everything flowing and involved us all in the proceedings. A thoroughly entertaining evening so huge thanks to Elizabeth and also mention must be made of our hosts Suzuki. Fabulous.”
