TACTICS UNDER JACKSON.

This talk is now pretty much sold out .

I cannot deliver it in house until mid -november onwards. 

The 'Surviving Jackson ' book published by Sun is going great guns too.

WINE

Sean Jones QC and i are about to write our annual Christmas wine list. Here is a sneak preview. Aldi red Italian Toscano is awesome.£4-09. Fresh berry flavours. Also their red Loco which is under £4.
I dislike their champagne.Avoid.
Sainsbury House Pinot Noir from Romania (!) is a blinder.£4-50. So pure . Up there with NZ Pinot that costs treble.
Right now Tesco has Wolf Blass chardonnay which has improved massively and now tastes Burgundian. As i write it is £5-99 not a tenner.Tesco own Champagne is infalliable.

GOOD TO BE BACK.

Enough law. Kate Middleton bought cashmere baby boots plus skirt and cardigans in Brora on the Kings rd yesterday. Beat that Mail online.
