I trust that Uppy could resist touching anything she was not supposed to .

Tyrells lab.

Well that was a 50% chance of getting it right.
I was surprised the number of girls (women) looking after things behind the scenes at Brokenwood. And knowledgeable about the process and product. Not a bastion of male dominance.

Actually it was Mr up that donned the plastic specs and had a good look!

We are now chilling out at the pool before tonight's dinner at Harrigans

 

[RooFlyer]

Well, back at the hotel briefly getting [-]sobered up[/-] refreshed for some Shennigans at Harrigans later.

Well, that was a fantastic day! Thank you so much jojen, bindibuys and PrincessFiona (and +1s) for that massive organisation! Everything went perfectly and the behind-the-scenes looks at Brokenwood and Domaine Binet were extra special. Somehow I joined 2 more wine clubs.
