Chandon

Chandon

Chandon flies the flag as the only Australian sparkling specialists with genuine French heritage. It all begins decades ago, when Moët & Chandon dared to dream differently, believing that the unknown could deliver brilliant opportunity. Produce superlative sparkling wines outside its hallowed French terroir? Mais bien sûr!

Working Hard

I have been waking up at 6AM everyday as I am working so far out of the city that it takes me one hour to get to work. When I get there the only options for coffee is a mobile coffee shop and with limited food options.

Crown Gold Class

Gold Class

I enjoy eating and watching films and in Australia we have Gold Class which is the first class of cinema entertainment. You can sit in a luxury reclining seat and have food delivered to you throughout the film. It is a great experience providing nobody sits next to you which thankfully has only happened once. I find booking last minute and selecting the middle seat increases your chances of having an empty seat next to you.

one year anniversary

Anniversary

Today is my one year anniversary from coming back from Australia and the sun has come out in Manchester to help me celebrate. If you wrap up warm and shelter from the cold wind then you can kid yourself that it is actually warm here.

Manchester City Football Club

Man City 5-0 Sunderland

I am back in Manchester and I went to see Manchester City play Sunderland yesterday which was my first football match I have been to since August 2006. Both my brothers failed to turn up, my cousins toilet flooded and he had the plumber there and my dad was at a wedding so I had nobody to go with and no car.

Easter Bunny

I must have dropped a dishcloth or walked under a ladder because last month I had a run of bad luck that I thought would never end.

V Festival,human league,madness

V Festival

It has been a long time since I have posted anything so here is a rundown. I have been in two earthquakes in Melbourne, one which knocked me off my feet and the other whilst I was baking on the balcony which gave me a shock. We have also had several after shocks but they were only minor.
