An evening of bubbles

Hello from the Taittinger club – we’re now officially welcomed into the Taittinger family! Very posh. The Wellington chapter of the club was launched last night overlooking a stunning Oriental Bay and glittering city. We didn’t know anyone there – it’s a bit like going to a movie at The Penthouse – a whole other set of Wellington that you’re just not sure you belong to. We did our usual thing of talking only to each other (sigh, we were supposed to be all grown up and club-like and mix with others but the band was so damn loud and everyone was so damn clicky and tiddled that I lost interest pretty quickly) but our perseverance was rewarded with a free bottle of Taittinger, the promise of a set discount if we buy through Fine Wine Delivery Company in Auckland and the business card of Mr Taittinger himself for ‘when we’re next over’. Indeed. Still, an enjoyable night and it was good to get a bit out of our comfort zone!
