Bobservation 44: Call My Bluff

We have been having Call my Bluff wine quiz evenings for the best part of 20 years now. The original one was in the village hall and quizzed by the staff from Wine Rack (alas long gone!) from Henfield.

Since then there have been various locations and the current marquee in the North Town Field is where we will be on Friday July 27th at 7 for 7.30pm.
We will have 4 white and 4 red wines to taste and be quizzed on by the three ‘experts’. This year we have managed to acquire the expertise of a lady (incognito) whose knowledge of wines of the world can only be described as legendary. She will join the precocious duo of Dave (S&D) and Bob (DG).

Tables of eight are £110 or single seats at £15. Interest has been encouraging so you are advised to book your table/seat now by phoning Bob on 271 or emailing him on bob.pamrowland @btinternet.com.
Tasty nibbles will be provided by the Shepherd & Dog so there is no need to bring your own food.
A word of warning to the more prudish villagers (if any) rude and insulting words may be used in the wine descriptions. There will be an attractive raffle and a prize for the winning table. An amusing evening is guaranteed. Use of toilets is free but unassisted!
