Time for some unashamed luxury and indulgence. Time for Champagne.
The beautiful woman to the left is Vitalie Taittinger of Champagne fame. I don't know who the bloke on the right is, but he seems to spend a lot of time hanging around with her. I am thinking of growing my hair long like his in the hopes of some of the romance rubbing off on me. If I did, I would be a teensy bit worried about resembling an elderly tramp. Perhaps I should dye it?
This photo reeks of money spent in romantic cities. Paris, Rome, Milan - and now Bath.
I think that Vitalie and the Taittinger family in general may be in a spot of bother financially though. If not, then why would she come to Bath to host a first come, first served, 5 course dinner with Champagne for £125? As restaurant prices go here, that is a good deal. Even I could afford it.
The trouble is that if I grew my hair long and wore an overcoat, they might not let me in.
Funnily enough Tom, when I first saw the photograph I wondered for a fleeting moment if it was you and you had been lying to us for years about your age!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure how to take that, Weave.
DeleteI have used up a quarter hour of my morning looking for that part of Bath. I found the pavers on Abby Green, but not the square. Perhaps the whole dinner is a bit dodgy. First come, baloney. How early do you suppose the place holders will be in line.
ReplyDeleteSorry Joanne, it isn't Bath. Somewhere in Europe, I guess. You have to buy the tickets in advance, so I suppose they are the first come.
DeleteI've always hated champagne and fucking prosecco
ReplyDeleteProsecco?! No comparison. The trick with Champagne is to drink loads, but only good stuff.
DeleteYou need that perfect,ellusive hat. That would work.
ReplyDeleteI think I have grown out of that hat now.
