belgmart was visiting Vinexpo in Bordeaux and called at the house for an evening meal yesterday. He very kindly brought some Belgian Beers with him and so some were sampled and some are waiting to be sampled.
It was good to see him and put a face to a name.

Always nice to put a face to a name. Although if the Skype video thing gets going some of us may be having nightmares
More seriously, I find if you've actually talked to someone face to face you don't run into as many problems interpreting their written word on the 'net where there are no other clues (facial expression, voice tone, body language etc) to go by.
BTW Duncan I sent a Skype request thingy to you. At least I hope it was you
The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.
