A very serious 😉 proposed itinerary for Saturday 14 November:
11:30am — Arrive at Taste the Tamar looking polished, sophisticated and entirely capable of discussing w**e properly.
11:34am — Run into three people you know before reaching the first tasting.
11:42am — “We’ll just have a little taste.”
12:03pm — Discover something delicious. Nod thoughtfully as though you absolutely detected those tasting notes yourself.
12:24pm — First food decision.
12:27pm — Regret not ordering more food.
12:48pm — First bathroom break.
1:05pm — Find a sunny spot. Picnic rug deployed. Life is good.
1:37pm — Discover your new favourite w**e.
1:39pm — Tell everyone within reach that you have discovered your new favourite w**e.
2:02pm — Emergency second bathroom break.
2:31pm — Attempt to gracefully sit back down on the picnic rug while holding w**e and food.
2:32pm — Spill approximately three drops of w**e and behave as though a national tragedy has occurred.
3:06pm — Live music starts sounding extra particularly excellent. Sing-along worthy perhaps!
3:42pm — Waistband negotiations begin. Is it obvious if you undo a button?
4:15pm — Someone suggests another little something to eat.
Obviously.
4:53pm — Begin discussing which bottles are coming home with you because “we really should support local.”
5:28pm — Realise you’ve been here for six hours.
5:29pm — Decide that’s entirely reasonable. Community minded, even!
6:30pm — Head home having eaten well, tasted your way around the Tamar and somehow acquired several bottles you definitely intended to buy all along.
Sounds terrible, doesn’t it? 😉
