Sounds great. Look forward to viewing the image some time. I imagine there is a great deal of light wrapping on the pipes in the refinery. Even if you missed it this time, it might be worth a reshoot.
Were you elevated or on ground level? I've seen a few large format users on top of vans and such to clear fences. Beds of pickup trucks help too.
Thanks for sharing about the image.

Before I review this hotel and Costa Rica I will say this: Do not travel to Costa Rica if you are looking for a pool to sit around a drink all week at the wet bar, OR if you want crystal clear ocean water, a white sand beach, and tropical luxury. If this is what you want, go to Mexico and give'r.
I have read many reviews here by people who obviously did not research what Costa Rica is really all about. I can't believe how many people complain about the pool, random small things about the rooms and other nit-picky things. No one I saw on my stay would qualify as 'royalty', and the people there who didn't enjoy there stay, also didn't leave the pool side.
That being said, those of you who have read about the beauty and natural riches of Costa Rica already know what you are in for. No one in their right mind travels to Costa Rica to sit at the pool for 7 days drinking 'cervesa'.
The Allegro Papagayo was a great hotel to stay in. The pool is big and very pretty, but we only sat there after dinner when no one was around. We didn't have time to swim in a pool, we can do that at home! The beach is black sand, which means water shoes are a must because the sand gets very hot! It's a natural beach too. It has many little hermit crabs and red crabs running around (who hide when they see u or if you hang around) there are lots of shells and rocks scattered everywhere. Costa Rica is like this almost everywhere. Things are left as they are -au naturel! People who like nature, hiking and eco-tourism will enjoy the Allegro because it is a clean, upper end hotel that will offer you a nice clean bed to sleep in and a nice meal after you return from a day at the private beach club (free and with a reservation) or a day on a eco-tour zip-lining, hiking, or visiting nearby cities.
This is what my husband and I did. We spent a good three days on eco-tours, one at the beach club and two at the hotel. Perfect!
Each nite the hotel has a theme dinner. The food is amazing! The dinner meal varies in selection each night, while breakfast and lunch are similar each day. It is VERY EASY to eat healthy there. A large selection of vegetable done all ways, lean meats, rice and beans, seafood and beef. There is also a salad/cheese/meat bar, a dessert bar and a huge selection of fresh fruit. The fruit and salad unlike many resorts I've been too is protected from bugs and the elements in encased glass with sliding doors. Most of the hot entrees are also in large hot pot type of things to keep them warm and fresh. There are cooks there making certain entrees right in front of you offering food hot off the grill.
Anyone who complained about the food on this site must be extremely picky and needs to have daily hotdog, burger and fry fixes. I come from a Euro background where everyone cooks fabulous meals, I know good food when I have it!
As far as the rooms go, I agree, they can vary. The first room we were assigned wasn't the greatest. It was a ground floor room and the ground floor rooms are much more 'rustic'. My husband and I had a honeymoon upgrade awaiting anyway, and our next room was fabulous.
We were on the 3rd floor with an ocean view. The room was clean with high ceilings and the maid, Rosario, was delightful and gave us fresh towels everyday, cleaned the place spotless, made our bed and even arranged our shoes. Really sweet!
The rooms there have either one king, or two double beds. They are all teh same size and top floor rooms have a higher ceiling, that's it. IF you get a room you are not happy with, be polite! Call the front desk and politely request a room change, without being insulting.
Getting around:
There are shuttles that go around the resort as there are steep hills and a lot of walking. I love to walk and enjoyed this aspect of the hotel. Less active or frail people may find this to be a challenge. I see a lot of reviews where people complain about this, and I'll say it again, Costa Rica is not for your average lazy vacationer seeking sun and ease.
I speak some Spanish and found the staff and people of Costa Rica increadibly helpful and kind. They were patient with me as I practiced my Spanish and even helped me out with a word or two rather than switching to English right away.
For those who do not speak Spanish, most Costa Rican's speak English and very very well as they learn it in school.
The people at Charlie's Adventure Tours (office is near the pool) does a great Aqua Combo tour with snorkeling, a visit to a gorgeous white sand beach, caving, a beach bbq, a mangrove tour (if the waters aren't too rough to dock the boat) and whale/dolphin watching. It was only 65$ and it was thrilling!
We also did a trip to Nicaragua which was a fabulous all-day journey that was very eye opening!
The Rincon de la Vieja Volcano hike was great, but unfortunately my husband and I were paired with quite a few people who actually complained through the entire (less than 2hr) hike! There were younger teens/kids running ahead of the guide (which is not allowed) and complaining about being tired and hungry the entire time. I honestly don't know why people sign up for these things if they are not into it. Also, 'a note' for those who have younger kids/teens who aren't into nature, please don't force them to come along, they not only waste your money, they waste other people's money as well who have to listen to them complain if they can't keep their every thought to themselves. The same goes for adults, if you aren't into it, save your money, please!
Signature Vacations has a good booking agent at the hotel.
Vargas Tours (google them) are the absolute best in the biz! Book with Vargas ahead of time. They are great with email, will tell u all about costa rica ahead of time, and will even phone u at the hotel if need be. They also have a first rate reputation.
I highly recommend booking tours as it is one of the only sure ways to experience this wonderful place outside the resort. It's a shame not to leave the resort in Costa Rica! There is way, way, way too much to see and do all around you!
In general:
I honestly can't believe how much people complain on tripadvisor about this hotel! One must always remember that Costa Rica is a developing country and one cannot expect absolute luxury in every way. If that is what you want, book with the Four Seasons. Costa Rica must be appreciated for it's natural rustic appeal and it's untouched beauty.
Most people don't go to Costa Rica looking to 'veg-out'. Costa Rica tends to attract the adventurous types. It's not the Hollywood image of Paradise. Costa Rica is most busy for tourism during the dry season (dec-april) and this means sun and heat everyday, but also brown dry grass and leafless trees. The resorts are watered more, but still, the all the rolling hills are brown, the flowers are few, and the trees are mostly bare. It has a unique beauty all on it's own. They say December is still very green but after that, most things go dormant, like how our vegetation does in Canadian winter (just no snow!)
Be sure to have your hep A and B shots/boosters just to be safe! Also our doctor had us take a preventative anti-diarrheal vaccine called ducorex. We also each had a filled prescription for cipro which treats lower respiratory infections, bladder infections and other stomach/intestinal bugs you may pick up that ducorex doesn't vaccinate against. You need to have this precautions in a tropical country. Many people brought children who got sick (as kids do as they get into it all) and had no prevention. That can ruin a trip!
All being said...
In Costa Rica I found a new kind of paradise. I saw how beautiful a natural beach can be. How they greyish white sand has streaks of black volcanic sand, how there is every kind of life in ever little corner -always something moving around, hiding, peeking out at you. It's utterly amazing.
I will return for sure this December. I would definitely return to the Allegro if I don't try something new.
If you are the outgoing, adventurous, nature loving/appreciative type, then you will love this place inside and out. You'll appreciate
all that the Allegro has to offer and you will go beyond that and explore the rest of what Guanacaste has to offer...
If you want to sit around the pool all week and stay inside the confines of the resort, then forget it. You will tire quickly and long for your coddled cushy life back home.
I fell in love with Costa Rica. It was my first time and I couldn't have picked a better place to stay! A+

Marian Gaborik still might not re-sign with the Minnesota Wild, but it seems clear that the team's chances of retaining its all-time leading scorer got better Thursday when owner Craig Leipold announced he had fired general manager Doug Risebrough.
Leipold made it clear he wants Gaborik back.
"I want his points and his goals and his speed," he said. "I would love to have Gaborik on the team, and any owner who wouldn't would be crazy. I imagine any new general manager would feel the same way about getting a star like Gabby on the team."
Leipold doesn't know whom he'll hire to replace Risebrough, but whoever it is will have a clean slate. Gaborik, and particularly his agent, Ron Salcer, were not on good terms with Risebrough, who, they believed, belittled Gaborik's need for hip surgery.
And now the way the Wild have handled Brent Burns' concussion appears to be a factor for Salcer, who represents Burns and teammate Derek Boogaard.
Gaborik had surgery to repair a torn labrum and damaged cartilage in his left hip on Jan. 5. When the team announced the decision, Risebrough made it implicitly clear he wasn't happy. That still rankles the player and agent.
"I think Marian was misunderstood. Marian had no choice in that surgery," Salcer said Thursday. "Marian was ready to play but was so afraid to tell the team he needed surgery that we had to talk him out of playing. The doctor was telling him, 'This will affect your career.'
"We had to fight with him not to play, and not having the team not support his decision was troubling.
Gaborik and Risebrough could not be reached for comment.
Burns suffered a concussion Jan. 26 in practice, yet wasn't taken out of the lineup until March 7 before a game against the Kings in Los Angeles. Salcer, who visited Burns on that trip, said he persuaded the defenseman not to play.
"I knew within three minutes he had a concussion," Salcer said. "I can't imagine that after six weeks they could not have known."
Gaborik turned down a long-term deal worth just more than $8 million a season in training camp, essentially ending all negotiations. Salcer said he called assistant general manager Tom Lynn in November hoping to reopen talks, "But that phone call has never been returned."
By that point, Gaborik had been out weeks with a groin injury, and Lynn said Thursday the team responded to the call by talking with Gaborik.
"Doug went directly to Marian and said, 'Now is not the time; get healthy first,' " Lynn said. "I told Ron that communication was our answer."
Under NHL rules, the Wild are the only team that can communicate with Gaborik before free agency officially opens on July 1, and Salcer said Thursday he is willing to talk with Minnesota before then.
- Owner: I agonized over decision
- Shooter: Failure with Gaborik likely cost Risebrough
- Sansevere: Lemaire should replace Risebrough
- Leipold covets Gaborik's return
- Lynn moves to interim GM
- Thompson carries on without boss, friend
- Sound off on Risebrough's firing
- The week that rocked the Wild
- Backstrom might need hip surgery
- Video: Risebrough: Fans know it's not about winning
However, player and agent seem determined to test the market.
"We have the highest level of respect for Mr. Leipold, and we're open to exploring opportunities," Salcer said. "But certainly July 1 is on the horizon."

Four is the score on day three of track cycling
The good times continued for the New Zealand track cycling squad at the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome today, with another gold medal, a silver and two bronzes.
In the men's 40km points race, Tom Scully was brilliant, winning both his morning heat and then the final in the afternoon. There was more good news when Aaron Gate claimed the points race bronze.
Scully, Gate and Shane Archbold, who all looked impressive in qualifying, rode a smart final. Scully was aggressive and racked up early points. He put three laps on most of the field and always looked strong. However, he was assisted by some excellent work from his team-mates.
By the time they had completed their 160 laps, Scully had 98 points, Isle of Man's Peter Kennaugh, who rides for Team Sky, was second with 84 and Gate was just behind on 82.
Scully, the world championship silver medallist in this event in Colombia earlier this year, is a great success story. He had a terrible crash while riding in Ireland and was forced to take a year out from the sport, but has come back better than ever this year.
"I'm thrilled with the win. It means a lot although it hasn't sunk in yet," Scully said. "It's been a long road back and I am thankful both to my professional team Madison Genesis and to BikeNZ who have supported me and allowed me to ride for my team and transition back on to the track.
"We had a good plan and rode to it. Both Aaron and I took our chances and Shane did a great job protecting us, covering the breaks and setting up some good points."
The medals won by Scully and Gate were the eighth and ninth of the New Zealand track cycling squad in Glasgow.
Earlier in the men's 1000m time trial, New Zealanders Simon van Velthooven and Matt Archibald grabbed silver and bronze behind Australian Scott Sunderland, the defending champion.
Archibald posted his time of 1min 01.162s, a games record, relatively early in what was only his second Kilo in competition. He took some six seconds off that time to set the pace which held up until the final pair hit the track.
It was a tight race, but the Australian, who is now part of Australia's endurance team, was behind van Velthooven until the final half lap when he finished the stronger. Sunderland clocked 1:00.67s to establish a games record and pip the Kiwi was timed at 1min 01.060.
Earlier Stephanie McKenzie completed an enterprising first major international meet when she placed sixth in the women's sprint after qualifying fourth fastest in the morning.
Lauren Ellis was the best of the New Zealand women in the 10km scratch race, finishing ninth after the field played into the hands of the fast Australian combination led by Annette Edmondson who out-sprinted teammate Amy Cure and Wales' Elinor Barker in a sprint finish.
While the New Zealand trio of Ellis, Rushlee Buchanan and Georgia Williams were lively early, they found little support from other countries to take it to the Australians, and once it became a sprint finish, then Edmondson, the pursuit winner, was simply too strong.
They will look to make things more challenging in tomorrow's points race.
There is a strong chance of more medals on the final day of track with van Velthooven, Eddie Dawkins and Sam Webster in the keirin while Scully, Archbold and Dylan Kennett race the scratch race.

Adrian Piper
Thomas Erben Gallery, New York, USA
Adrian Piper's early performance and photography work is often referred to but rarely seen. For the 'Mythic Being' series (1972-75), shown complete here for the first time (and archived usefully on the website, http://www.thomaserben.com), Piper disguised herself as an androgynous, racially indeterminate young man, dressed in black T-shirt and flared jeans, big sunglasses, an Afro wig and a Zapata-ish moustache, often smoking a cigarette. She documented a series of public and private performances before drawing on many of the photographs and frequently adding speech or thought balloons.
The first public appearance of the 'Mythic Being' came in a series of monthly advertisements in the art pages of The Village Voice. Photographed as the 'Being' at home, Piper added balloons containing words from her own journals written between 1961 and 1972. From the outset, the age, race and sexuality of the 'Being' was unstable its fiction confused by the autobiographical journal entries. One of the ads, for instance, reads 'Today was the first day of school. The only decent boys in my class are Robbie and Clyde. I think I like Clyde.' (This is dated 9-21-61, when Piper was a young teenager.)
The series of 10 images 'I/You (Her)' (1974), begins with Piper's own face, alongside a collage of a white woman's face. Speech balloons track Piper's estrangement from the other woman (a friend, or perhaps a lover) 'You punish me for how I look, when that is irrelevant and out of my control'. The 'Being' is clearly a racially charged figure, a fact made explicit in The Mythic Being Cruising White Women, (1975), and The Mythic Being Getting Back, (1975). Race itself in this work is a mythic concept: charged but unstable, a representation (stereotypical or otherwise), a performance.
The status of race as performance is underscored in 'I/You/Us' (1975), a series of six photographs of a small, pale and undisguised Piper beneath large balloons in which she demands someone's attention in a comical, cerebrally nasty manner: 'Be sure to attend very carefully to what I have to say to you. For if you do not, I will make a sincere effort to kill you.' Here, direct demand and aggression are undercut by a ludicrous, Monty Python-esque tone. Subsequently, Piper has addressed relations between the indeterminacy of race and its concrete social effects. To reveal herself as the 'Mythic Being', or to drop the distinction between her fictional alter ego and herself, in 'I/You/Us', was to argue, both angrily and wittily, for the fictional nature of race as a fixed category of identity.
The reputation of Piper's early work rests on the fact that she was one of a number of artists who used performance to introduce social critique into a broadly Conceptual framework (earlier still, she had made classic Conceptual diagrams). Piper's use of elements of performance and autobiography undercut the veracity of the Conceptual-looking photographs. For Piper's photographs were not simply records after the fact; the existence of the 'Being' depended upon them. Piper's description of this complex relationship between performance and photography stands as an early demonstration that identity itself is bound up in performance and its representation.

Topic of thesis: Synthesis and design of integrated-intensified chemical/biochemical process
Starting date: May 2012
Background: M.Sc. in Chemical Engineering from The Sirindhorn Thai German Graduate School of Engineering (with collaboration with AVT.PT RWTH Aachen)
Supervisors: Gürkan Sin and Krist Gernaey
The focus of this project is to develop the decision support tool for biorefinery design at the early-stage. A systematic framework is used to manage the complexity and solving simultaneously both business and engineering dimension. This allows the comparison of a large number of alternatives and results in the identification of the optimal raw material, multi-product portfolio and process technology selection for a specified market scenario, their sustainability metrics and risk of investment under market uncertainties during early-stage enabling risk-aware decision making. The project is expected to serve as enabling technology for facilitating the innovation cycle to support the development of renewable carbon-based technologies and industries. The project is part of a European collaboration called OPTICO.

65 apartments for rent near Fairfield, TX
Apartments in Fairfield, TX
Fairfield, Texas is located between Dallas and Houston, at the point where I-45 and US 84 intersect. The city was founded in 1851 on 100 acres when the location of the new city was chosen to be the county seat.
Farming and ranching are important to the city's commerce, as is the coal industry. A majority of residents work in the production of lignite, or "brown coal," and a large number of residents work in the prison, located nearby.
In order to mine the lignite, a team electric station was located in Fairfield in 1969; because the plant required the construction of a large body of water, Fairfield State Lake was created, and is now known as one of the best fishing lakes in the state.
According to the United States Census Bureau, Fairfield has a total area of four and one-half square miles, and as of 2010 the population of the city is 3,705. Almost one-third of the households here have children under the age of 18 living with them. The median household income in Fairfield is somewhat under the national average at $28,636.
A number of gifted athletes hail from Fairfield, including Tony Brackens, who played college football for the Texas Longhorns and played in the NFL for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Winfred Tubbs, another well-known football player first played for the Texas Longhorns and went on to the NFL, first with the New Orleans Saints and then the San Francisco 49ers. Nanceen Perry represented Fairfield as a member of the US Track team in the 2000 Sydney Olympics, alongside star Marion Jones.

Pure Greed and Entitlement!
Provincial Court judges are suing the provincial government for refusing to accept a pay-hike recommendation. Not much sympathy from me for this pack of overpaid, self-indulgent thieves who get over $200k annually with benefits as it is. I hope the courts toss this case out as having no standing in law. After all, the commission in question only made a recommendation. Is there some binding contract that says the Provincial Treasury has to act to give these guys parity with other civil servants who are climbing the ladder of public entitlement. At best, I might consider supporting a modest salary increase conditional on them cleaning up the logjam of court cases throughout the province. Otherwise, no dice!

Nov 08, 2013 EbenGregory Top Stories 1
Black Ink Crew's Ceaser and Dutchess seemed to be going through a rough patch in their relationship, as he got at her for going through his phone. The shop's bossman let the world see his frustration, tweeting "B*tch wants to go thru phones….then call the cops on me…b*tches be tripping."
Reports Vlad:
A follower then replied to Ceaser's message, claiming "Insecurity breeds jealousy," to which he responded, "#right." Dutchess also chimed in on the situation, claiming that Ceaser kicked in a door and she called the police.
All seemed like it was over when Ceaser sent out a tweet Black Ink Crew was looking for a "dope tattoo artist/piercer, but Dutchess seemed to smooth things over by deleting her tweets. She also posted a sweet photo of the two with the message, "Love is not about how much love you have in the beginning, but how much love you build till the end."
And now…the tweets.
This is EbenGregory.com…telling you Ceasar probably never stopped loving, he just stopped showing it. Free jewelry.

Dobó István tér is the focal point of Eger - it was the market square from medieval time. It's a pleasant place for a coffee brake since it's more or less surrounded of cafés and restaurants, either directly or indirectly. There is a little green area between the square (= tér) and the cafés and shops on the side opposite the church. What catches...more
The Minorite Church.
The Minorite Church, situated along the Dobó tér, is regarded as one the most beautiful Baroque churches in Europe. It's building was finished in 1767. You can listen to the bell chimes at 11.00, 15.00 and 18.00, every day.more
The Castle.
The castle was built a little bit too late - it was built shortly after the Mongol attack in 1241. Luckily it didn't have to come into use until the 1552 Turkish attack, but at that time it wasn't in the best shape. What the Turks didn't manage to do, the Habsburgs did in 1702, (15 years after the Turks left after their occupation 1596 - 1687) when...more
The Basilica.
The Basilica in Eger is the second largest in Hungary after the one in Esztergom. It was built from 1831 to -37. It sits majestically on top of some broad stairs which are flanked by statues of the two kings Laszló and István together with the apostles Peter and Paul. The Basilica's cupola is 40 m of height. During high season, May 15 to October...more
The Valley of Beautiful Women
A great place to sample Bikaver wine is in Eger's "Valley of the Beautiful Women", or Szepasszony-Volgy. Here a small semi-circle of cellars are cut into the local stone, which allows them to keep barrels of the superb local wine at the perfect temperature. You can just wander from cellar to cellar trying a glass of whatever takes you fancy. Some...more

Eger Restaurants
Very cheap local food.
I don't remember the name of the restaurant but it's inside a kind of a club's house, open to anybody to come in. There are two floors but I didn't check the upper one. I felt it was more the "choosen" ones. A set lunch with two or three options for 1.200 HUF ~4 Euro. It included soup , main course, bread and beverage. I was very satisfied with...more
Önkiszogáló étterem.
The expression "Önkiszogáló étterem" means a self service canteen where you choose from ready made food, like the "dish of the day" but the difference is that here are there many "dishes of the day" at the same time.

Hotel restaurant.
I had chicken breast marinated in youghurt and honey, potatoe crocettes, Turkish sallad and juice. It costed 2.700 HUF ~10 Euro. The food was good but not more than that. I believe the price was a bit higher than in many other restaurants.more
Eger Nightlife
Enjoying food and wine
Well, it's also a good place for people watching and listening to live music. There are many cellars and restaurants in the valley, it's easy to choose. It's a good programme for a summer night (or any other time of the year). Anything goesmore
The Wine Cellars
Szépasszony-völgy (Witch Valley) is the home of the world-famous wines of Eger. Those who have become tired of sightseeing may turn into one of the cellars hollowed into the rhyolite tuff hillsides. The walls of the cellars are covered with noble mould. The so called Öregsor (Old Row [of wine cellars]) was established in the 18th century, but the...more

Eger Transportation
Railway station.
To get into town from the railway station you have to follow Deák Ferenc utca southwards for about a kilometre. Journey time to/from Budapest Keleti station is about two hours, and it costed 2.160 HUF ~7 Euro, as of May 2011. I provide a link to the railway company further down.more
Bus station.
You will find the bus station in Pyrker János tér, some 500m southwest of Dobó István tér. Buses to Budapest has their terminal station at Stadion bus station. The journey takes ~3 h. The bus station seemed to be very busy. A lot of people there when I visited but at the same time I got the impression it was a bit chaotic.more
Bus (and Train)
Travelling to Eger by bus is probably the best option. First the bus station is extremely central. It's just a couple of minutes walk to the center (the main train station is much further out). Secondly the Eger station is on a small local line, meaning that, coming from Budapest, you either have to change at Füzesabony, or take one of the few...more

In "Valley of Beautiful Lady" (Szepasszony-volgy) dozens of wine cellars sell the wine just from barrels. Prices are very moderate - about to 2 euro for one liter (or 50-60 forints / 0,1 l). One can buy a jug and drink it on the spot or a bottle which can take with oneself. Remember that "edes" means sweet, whereas "szaraz" - dry (feledes and...more
Eger Warnings and Dangers
Very Safe
This is about as safe as I have felt anywhere in Hungary, which is in itself a very safe country. Certainly no significant threat of violence here. But it is a popular tourist area, and as always they are likely to attract pickpockets and rip-off artists. I have no evidence to suggest it is worse here than anywhere else, and I suspect it is probably much safer.
Eger Tourist Traps
Vignette?What is that.
Well in my country I think and in other countries if you travel in motorways you stop and pay a fee. In Hungary we travel in motorway from Budapest to Eger but we didn't see any toll road. We didn't understand why there isn't a tool road. But when we came out from motorway we understand. The stop us A mattricia vignette something like police for motorways and show us a tablet to said we must paid 56euros!!!
This people they didn't speak English only when we came to hotel the staff there explain to us the Hungarian toll road system.
I think they must inform foreign to visit the country from broader for this not wait to
Use the motorways and then paid for this.
But then we saw this and in Austria but now we know what to doRelated to:
- Road Trip
Eger What to Pack
Don't forget a corkscrew
Photo Equipment: spare battery for flash if you plan to make
pictures in wine cellars.
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: swimsuit, beach towel.
Swimming cap is obligatory if you're going to use the swimming pool.
Miscellaneous: Electric kettle can be helpful if you are a tea drinker.
You'll need to prepare your tea yourself (it's also good
idea to take your tea with you).
Corkscrew can be useful.

Szarvaskõ lies at a picturesque place next to the Bükk National Park 9 kms from the baroque Eger. It's a popular place to go among guests who are looking for active holidays and like mountaineering and yet like being near a town. The village has unique environmental values, fresh air, subalpine climate and a well-arranged village outlook.more

A brief look at the history.
Settled by Magyar tribes, Eger was made a bishopric in the beginning of the 11century by king István l. In 1241 was it burnt down by the Mongols who also slaughtered close to the whole population.

Notes from Organised Tastings
Tasting with Jancis Robinson
by Tom Cannavan, 10/97
Jancis Robinson was in town to launch her new autobiography, "Confessions of a Wine Lover" (See my thoughts on this book under "Book Reviews"). Excellent independant merchant Peter Green had arranged this tasting evening, with JR choosing the wines. Each wine tied in to her career and development as a wine lover/writer and was chosen on that basis. It was a great evening. The wines were very good indeed and JR is a great raconteur with a lovely marriage of subject authority, enthusiasm and wit. She must be one of the least patronising and best informed writers in the world of wine. All wines supplied by Peter Green, Edinburgh.
Domaine des Petits Faîteaux, Touraine Sauvignon 1996 - £4.50
Very pale straw colour. Clean nose of pear-drops and flowers, hints of wet stones. Loads of pure, clean pear and apple flavour and reasonable body. Grapefruit acidity in the finish is wonderfully fresh and pure.
von Schubert, Maximin Grünhäuser Bruderberg Riesling Kabinett 1994 - £14.99
Pale colour. Whiff off sulphur blew off to reveal astonishingly intense nose, redolent of minerals and flint. Superb balance on the palate with lots of luscious, peachy fruit, some sweetness and the same minerally character. A dry, nutty edge shows up in the finish with plenty of clean, lime acidity. Very long, very, very nice.
Petaluma Chardonnay (South Australia) 1996 - £13.50
Medium golden yellow colour. My kind of chardonnay on the nose: pure lemony, boiled sweets character with lots of yeasty finesse and subtle, sweet oak. On the palate very smooth and medium bodied with restrained tropical fruit, but a savoury edge through keen acidity. Long, lingering, more-ish finish. Oak is integrated and balanced. Overall harmony and obvious quality.
Faiveley, Mercurey "Domaine de la Croix Jacquelet" 1995 - £9.99
Medium but fairly dense, soft ruby red. Sweet berry nose, creamy with developing earthy aromas. Slightly thin on the palate with plenty of mouth coating tannins, some strawberry fruit, but very cleanly made and stylish. Warmth in the finish which is still pretty tannic. Needs time.
La Rioja Alta, Viña Ardanza 1989 - £9.95
Quite brown on the edges. Usual gorgeous, smoky, red berry nose with lots of sweet oak and almost Burgundian perfume and spice. More of the same on the palate. Had the '87 last week and perhaps that was slightly better. Oh for a nice piece of lamb or a steak.

Event Overview
We all love the feeling of riding over long rolling hills and down quiet country roads, legs pumping and the worries of the world falling by the wayside. The aim of the Biggest Journey is to promote that feeling and the mental health benefits that come from cycling.
In 2012, one man started the Biggest Journey by riding solo from Edinburgh to London in 3 days. Riding in alone is good, but riding with friends is better.
Join us as we take the Devolution Revolution from Cardiff to Edinburgh in 5 days, 450(ish) miles through some of the most beautiful and testing terrain in the British Isles.
We'll go through the Brecon Beacons, Lake District and Scotish Borders on a route full of stunning sights and surprises.
Basic route will be as follows:
Day 1: Cardiff to Llandrindod Wells... specifically, finishing at the Nation Cycle collection in Llandrindon Wells, where some surprises will great us. The first day starts with a bit of a climb out of Cardiff, but it eases off toward the end and it's under 80mile, so isn't too harsh a start. What's really nice is that we'll be staying at the Metropole health spa on the first night, with lovely food and full use of the facilities. Don't get used to this luxury, but it is a nice way to break you all in ;-)
Day 2: Llandrindon Wells to Cheshire... 100 miles. Starts off pretty hilly as we exit Wales, but then calms down to the flat pastures of Cheshire, with some lovely quiet lanes, and passing by a couple of local landmarks, such as Beaston Castle. No luxury on night 2, but nice functional accommodation all the same.
Day 3: Cheshire to Kendal... 100 miles. There were a couple of choices here, in route terms, and I have chosen to avoid the busyness of big Cheshire towns like Warrington and then Preston. Instead, we'll head east of the M6 and skirt the edge of the Yorkshire dales. No, it's not flat... but this is some prime country riding and after a nice easy start through north cheshire, I think we'll be glad of some challenging climbing and interesting descents.
Day 4: Kendal to Eskdalemuir... 90 miles. So, there's a few choices in how to head north... but how can we ignore the beauty of the Lakes. So, it's off over the Kirkstone pass we go, for a big wake up call, before descending down to track the edge of Ulswater before hitting slightly more gentle, rolling country in the northern lake district before crossing the Scottish border. I'll not spoil the surprise on our accommodation for last night just yet - but there will be plenty of time for contemplation and reflection on what we've all been through on the first 4 days of the trip. The calm before the storm if you like.
Day 5: Eskdalemuir to Edinburgh... Don't worry, the storm isn't in the form of a mammoth mountainous route, but more the emotional sledgehammer the will hit you when you complete the ride. Before that though, we've roughly 60 beautiful scenic miles through glorious Scottish borders and into Edinburgh from the south. This is my country - I know these roads like the back of my hand and there some of my favourite in the country. It'll seem quite fitting some share them with you.
So - hopefully, I had you at 'Metropole Health Spa' and you're still dreaming of the whirlpool bath and 3 course meal?
All Accommodation (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday nights), food and transfer of your kit between stops will be covered. There will be full support, including a mechanic and sports nutrition (Courtesy of Sponser UK). You'll need to get yourself to Cardiff, ready for start on Tuesday morning, and get home from Edinburgh after a big celebration on the Saturday evening.... oh, and if you haven't already, get some training in!
The event costs £450 per person. £100 of this is due at the time of registration with the remainder being due by 18 May (1 month before we set off)
This is a charity event so we would like you to raise sponsorship. Whilst this is not mandatory, anyone raising more than £1000 will get their event costs refunded/paid for them.
Info for Riders
5 days – 450 miles – Cardiff to Edinburgh. Promoting the benefits of exercise to mental health. £450 total cost including accommodation (£100 deposit, £350 1 month before event start) Free if you raise £1000 for our supported charities.
