Saabnut Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 It is Beajolais Nouveau day today. My central heating boiler needs a dose of looking at but as I had been invited out to lunch decided to leave the boiler til after lunch. I had forgotten it was Nouveau day, so we had to sample it at lunch time. Four of us at lunch. One driving. Three bottles. Oh dear. Just stuck the electric heater on, will look at the boiler tomorrow. Wonder if this Merlot will be as good?
