I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.

Nooooooooooooooooooooo
I can only hope it was a bottle of ‘cooking’ although I already know it wasn’t . . .
I’ll give you a quick tip on the very best red wine I’ve had for quite some time.
It’s called 19 Crimes and is an Australian Cab Sauv
Every single person I know whose tried it has said it is brilliant
I’m hoping you will agree . . .

Two ways to think about it: Lachrima christi or tears of Dionysius. While thinking about this you’ll forget the tragedy.

Sorry, I made a typo; I meant to write Dionysus (the God of wine) not Dionysius who was Bishop of Corinth

I’ll give it a go. I’ve always favoured Southern European wines, ones that put hairs on your chest, but I’m open to everything (except white wine).

We’re all different and we all like different things but I am yet to fine anyone who doesn’t absolutely love 10 Crimes
Cheapest place was The CO-OP but might now be Sainsbury’s . . .
