Yet another undesirable export from the USA has emerged in NZ.
OK - I don't mind Harley Davidsons and Cadillacs and Zinfandels, but this is something which I place right alongside Big Macs and George Bushes - best kept on the other side of the Pacific.
Last night, during dinner, my wife and I were brutally accosted by three neighbourhood terrorists demanding valuables, threatening endangerment to my person or property.
Standing over these 5-6-7- year old monsters, hovering at the gateway, was their Osama-Bin-Father, who was not amused when I offered the most valuable thing I had to hand, a glass of 1998 Browns (Padthaway) 'Ernest' Shiraz out of South Australia - humourless bastard!!!!!
Spoiled a very nice example of Aussie shiraz from a great year.
