Got it all sorted.

Some dodgy merkin tried to reset my password today, but I ignored said email.

Woke up to find my account no longer existed and, upon talking to tech support, they informed me my details had all been attached to my address but at Outlook.com. Some dodgy mother-f**ker had hijacked it!

Got it all sorted fairly promptly, but what a weird thing to 'steal'.

Pfft, as if anyone buys My Pleasant any more :sarcasm:

The single appellation please.

:lol: On Mt Pleasant, we've done two B-Side semillions. Both are worth a look, particularly Airport Block which is from the Lovedale vineyard. Really top shelf. Mt Henry Shiraz Pinot Noir is also really good.

Canberra Syrah all the way. Its just gorgeous. I really, really enjoyed it.

The Chardy is a typical Tumba, but a little bit more refined. The Hilltops Cab Sauv is also good too.

I didn't mind the Hilltops Shiraz, but it didn't blow my mind. Would rather the Under and Over Heathcote Shiraz IMHO; smoother and more delicate. Still worth a go. If I had to only buy three, I'd go the Syrah, Cab Sauv and Chardy and leave the Shiraz.

Maybe it's the Chinese cracking down on people getting around their internet blocks?

They do try that regularly, but they don't bother stealing accounts. They just change their protocols so that VPN providers need to adapt or go out of business.

It should be said, the Chinese don't give two shits if we get around their firewall. It's the locals they want kept in the dark.

I take it you think YellowTail is a quality wine brand, eh? Or maybe Gossips? ;-)


It's all cats piss. Wine is a good way to ruin a perfectly good glass of grape juice. I have tried to develop a palate for it, but just cant. I like it in cooking only.

Last weekend a hot girl I had just met gave me a 700ml bottle filled with goon before I even knew her name and I spent the rest of the night convinced I had been spiked and that I was about to pass out and I'd wake up missing an organ.
