Formerly Darby's Wine Newsletter this publication now supports a community who love alternative varietal wines and who share information about their passion.
Specialist info on Australian wine - alternative varietal wines. Author What Vareital is That? & Rare Ozzies: a hundred Rare Australian Grape varieties.
One of my passions is Cryptic crosswords. I have been teaching a group of U3A members for the past few years. Together we solve the crossword in The Age every Monday. We also discuss the notorious DA crossword from Friday's Age.
A new cryptic crossword every couple of weeks, or sooner if I'm feeling inspired. If I can get a laugh (or groan) when you solve a clue, my work has been worthwhile!
