I'm not a wine expert. Not overly fond of white wines or anything with bubbles in it, but I do LOVE a good red, especially Merlot. My favourite Australian wine is Wolf Blass Eaglehawk Merlot. I can also recommend anything from Margaret River in Western Australia (it's a big wine growing region) - Heath's home state. I've sampled many Margaret River reds over the years and all have been GOOD!  :D

Had those glasses and dishes; still have a set Royal Doulton too rare!

Anyone here a rare wine connaisseur?

I have a bottle, but need info.

The largest is a splendid statue of the falcon-headed Egyptian sun god, Ra. He's about 60cm (2ft) tall and stands in the middle of my dining table, from whence he holds court. He is a very majestic presence in my home. The smallest figurine is a tiny, beautifully detailed figurine of the elephant-headed Hindu god, Ganesh. Traditionally, Ganesh should be located inside one's front door, facing the door, to guard your home. And that's where my Ganesh is located (I have more than one Ganesh).

Kerry, I never knew that tradition, but sure enough, my Ganesh is right inside the front door!  He must have guided me!
