What's the world coming to?

 I popped into a supermarket in The Hutt to pick up a couple of Cleanskins, only to find that they were sold out.

WHAT!

There were other wines and Shelley seemed keen to at least buy something. Normally I would have put my foot down (as I often do*) but yesterday had been a stressful day - we'd spent about 4 1/2 hours in A & E because Shelley had a health scare. Everything turned out to be fine, so I wasn't in a mood to say, "Let's go with Corban's White Label at $8.99."

She chose this:

$30 that could have gone towards bass strings!

She also chose a couple of other bottles.

I wonder if Cleanskin do a set of bass strings?

Sheesh!

Ah well, I guess my practice will be slipping out of Equal Temperament tonight. Wine can affect your intonation.
I guess I'll just have to play Elgar, and maybe some folk music.

The great news is that Shelley is fighting fit.

Ciao tutti.

Okay then. No replies. I guess I'll have to call in some of my more loyal RBB 'guys'.

Great news that Shelley is okay! I've heard that Church Road is better than Te Mata. Best wishes.

I'm, as you know, a thinking kind of guy and would probably prefer the Church Road. Great that Shelley is okay. Hope you voted in the local body elections. It's all shit up here in Auckland. Great news about Shelley.

We just got home from being out to dinner.
That scared me. I hope that Shelley is OK. What is it with us?
Good news also on the wine selection. You could always use rubber bands or shoe laces for the bass. Keep the priorities in mind.
