my work on this planet is done...

[Ken Gargett]

one of the sites for which i write is WinePilot, a reasonably new site which does reviews of Aussie wines with spirits, beers and offshore wines soon to follow. it is a free site and worthwhile for locals and others interested. https://winepilot.com/

the editor allocates which wines one reviews and some of mine were from a mob called Step by Step making good value fun wines. they have linked all their wines to various celebrities. all entertaining. 

one of their wines was their Cabernet which they named 'The Boss'. however they linked it, for reasons i will never understand, to someone called amy winehouse (i suppose the wine bit is the link). Spare me!

I pointed out that this was an absolute travesty against humanity and that it foretold the imminent end of western civilisation. Or something like that.

Got a lovely letter from them to say that they fully agreed and the winehouse person has been removed and Bruce, with Born to Run now inserted and will appear in all their marketing and publicity stuff. 

i can die happy.

There is such a concept as justice after all! ?

If I don't see a picture of a Chateau or a Coat of Arms, the marketing of a wine label already has two strikes against it.
