Wine Festival in September 2010

[Kags]

Hi all you helpful people.
Does anyone know when the wine festival is this year (2010)?

[justphil]

Kags, nobody will be able to say exactly. It goes with the grapes. But a very good chance it will be the weekend of 11/12 September. Our lovely friends Kev and Bev, and Terry and Helen will be there then. They are hoping like yous are....

That sounds a very good way of organising things to me...no fixed date or time...just see how it goes..or grows in this case!! Tho could do with the grapes holding out til weekend 18/19 Sept!! Either way am sure we'll have a fab time, hope ur friends do too

This is why riggers booked 10 days so we get 2 weekends, and hopefully the wine festival will be on one of them.....

riggers mate, I'm so sorry I left you out of that list. I HATE making lists because you always miss someone out.

You and Sue will finally get to be there too. It is a wonderful experience. Wish I could be refilling your jugs like I did in 2008 for Kev and Bev and PaulC and Di..... We still have our (large) jugs in the cupboard here....

Have a great time (as if I needed to say that...)
love to Sue too

Would love to have done 10 days but time,kids, work and finances all working against us! Sound like its all good fun tho so fingers crossed for the 18/19 then...thanks guys..helpful as ever x

Kags I'm sorry but after the weather this year it might be earlier rather than later. Stay with us - Arillas is an amazing cure for "time,kids, work and finances " All of us who spend the rest of our year on the forum meet new and lovely people and forget our impending bankruptcy.... This forum is a cure for everything.

I'll second that!  Shame we'll miss this year's wine festival though, although our good friends Joan and John (staying again at Kaloudis) and also our new friend Cathy (met at Kaloudis in May) should be there to experience it.

Yammas, all!

Yammas Janis luvver. I've been lost for words to express how strongly I have felt about your recent troubles. But I have these few...

"WELCOME BACK WE'VE MISSED YOU."

Hopefully then the wine festival will be on when Enid and I are in Arillas. Phil I can you remember filling your friend's wine jugs up and you had three in your hands , I took a photo of you and , I was well impressed cause you never spilt a drop. I'll always remember that holiday meetiing you and Jen, spending until the small hours in the Coconut and the afternoon we spent at the Rainbow.  Hope to meet you two again

Love
Mary
