Issue 8; Not Quite a Sommelier

By T W Coombs

As the title suggests the next 700 words or so will be about wine, mostly my journey of wine with some of my favourites thrown in, also a great way to track your wine journey using your phone. 

Issue 7; Vino (Faversham) – The Review


By T W Coombs

Open for approximately three months now and situated in the beautiful market place of Faversham, Kent is a wine shop with a twist.  Vino is owned by Fabio and David and run daily by Fabio who has brought some Mediterranean customs to the experience of buying and trying wine.

Issue 7; The Sports Wear Dilemma

by T W Coombs

I have a dilemma and I know a few that do when it comes to the new craze of designer sportswear and wearing more sports styled garments and shoes.  I have written before about my dislike of this style of clothing outside of the gym, it might be my age at 35 or the fact that when I was in my late teens the people in tracksuits were not the most reputable group.  Even if their styled ass baggy tracksuit matched, and thankfully even to this day this is a no in the fashion world.
