English Wine Week 2009 - Bloggers Meet Up

A bunch of twittering bloggers meet up in my home town of Wallingford for a day of English wine and food. The wine notes and main twitterings are over on Spittoon but thought a few of the pictures I took on the day were good enough for posting here. Text excerpts are from the tweets posted during the day. For full coverage of the tweets the tag #aeww (Awsome English wine week) was used (just ignore the odd Brazilian stuff that pops in occassionally if you read the full tweets!). More aeww pictures on flickr.
