Now that's the kind of work I don't mind doing

































I've just come back from a Champagne Taittinger tasting this afternoon. I had about four glasses of champagne and now I'm supposed to keep on working? That's really a bit much to ask for. I think I should be sent home to do some more champagne research.

Yeah, those are the perks of the job.

OMG....Champagne Taittinger is my newest drug of choice. I'm starting to think I'm a little on the high maintenance side.

FOUR glasses,girl?? Good night! I would be on the floor after the second glass - champagne goes straight to my head - you know how those Empfänge are here! Merci me... So what else did you do after that... :-)

Jerry, dahling, that's not high maintance! I can see you're a man of good taste. And classy people like us just happen to know what's good for us. And I do think that includes Champagne Taittinger.

EM- Well, they were very small glasses! And what did I do after that? I went back and pretended to do some work and left a bit later... unfortunately I had to go to uni afterwards, which really was no fun. Oh well, you can't always live it up.

Paulinha- Champagne Taittinger is a beautiful French Champagne, which I would gladly drink every afternoon. But sadly, that's not the only thing there is to my job... I occasionally do some work too.

Callie- Yeah, it makes me feel very posh. For a couple of hours and then the glamour fades away again. :-)

Jerry- You lightened my photos?? I darkened them deliberately, as I thought they were cooler like that. But if it was worth it for you- be my guest. And thanks for the compliment.

This reminds me of the lunches (with lovely -drinking- extras) I get to have sometimes for work...
They rock, don't they?
Even when the reality of having to go back to the office tries to mess with them... ;)

Imogen- Exactely. Why can't work be all lunches and champagne tastings with only the occasional afternoon of hard work, rather than the other way around?

Aggs- Cool! I can't wait! I think we would be quite the champagne team. We might throw in a few gallery openings, long business lunches and stuff like that in there too. Why not.

No, just pulled together at the back. I do sometimes feel like chopping off my hair though... but I think I'm gonna hold back for a little while.
