Thank you Thermomixer. I've only just found this 'topic' I hope it is the start of many! We have many customers from around the area but as you can imagine fairly wide spread. So Wangaratta is geographically the central spot. I'm pretty excited about it. Its amazing how many people it brings out of the wood work! Just discovered one lady that I work with that has been wanting to see a Thermomix for a long time and discovered that she had a consultant working with her LOL!!! ;) :D
So if anyone knows someone in North East Victoria that you think would be interested in seeing the Thermomix please give me a call and we can book them in 0418367836.
Cheerio!

Thanks guys. I'm pretty VERY excited about it!! 12 months ago, there were no consultants (that I know of) servicing the country area and I drove to Melbourne to see the TM, however couldn't access Delivery Demos etc. Which is a bit part why I became a consultant - to offer that to country customers.
Thermomixer, have a couple of people coming from Brown Brothers (there - i said it! LOL) but a few have pulled out. :-X :'( >:(
Trying to get a few restaurants and cafes in - but to be honest forgot about the poor old King Valley - might head up there tomorrow afternoon - and what perfect weather we have for that ;) ;D ;D
Anyway, have a few K's to do over the next couple of days to drum up some business and some prep work to do too.
-
Wish you all the luck in the world I Love Bimby - that's a great thing you are doing for country areas. Maybe the people from Brown Bros will bring along a few bottles of wine to accompany the lovely meal you are going to cook them. My favourite is their Crouchen Riesling.
-
Thanks Judydawn.
Yes - or perhaps I could clean out my wine collection as an incentive to draw more people - lol!!
My collection keeps growing... and I don't drink that much these days... Need some good Thermomix buddies around here to have some dinner parties with ;D :D
Crouchen Riesling is huge for us! (putting my BB hat on now) have you tried Moscato or Zibibbo? My lips are sealed but watch the shelves later in the year ;)
-
Have seen the Moscato advertised but on asking around, no-one I know has tried it yet. Looks like I will have to be the first to do so - I think I read it is a sweet wine which is all I drink and did I read it was pink? Haven't seen or heard of the other one. I have a friend coming to stay for DH's 60th in June and was going to get some nice bottles in - DD doesn't drink at all these days and it will be nice to have someone to share a bottle with me. A good time to try both of these BB ones you mentioned. Thanks a lot for that info.
-
They are great wines especially for summer -LOW alcohol - great to finish the meal with a glass of these. Be the first on your street. I think that the Moscato is one of the biggest sellers in Oz??
-
I think Crouchen is still No.1 - just but Moscato is hot on it's heels.
The low alcohol sweeter style wines are huge for us, and thankfully make wine much more accessible to a broarder range of paletes.
So we have Cienna, Dolcetto & Syrah, Moscato, Moscato Rosa (pink), Zibibbo and Zibibbo Rosa in the "spritzig"/"fizzante"/fizzy styles. Very yummy and very easy to drink.
Thermomixer - just had a 2002 Limited Release Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay last night - very nice and rich! Pity I'm not allowed the cheese with it :'( :-X
-
Have to look out for that - they have such a brilliant range. Think the widest range of aussie wineries. Loved their posters with the different wines. Shame they don't make them any more.
-
Is that the ones with the matching foods Thermomixer?
-
They were the ones - looked like still life paintings.
-
We still have a few hanging up on the walls at work. Can remember (years ago) of when the "shades of brown" came out and so many of the others were chucked out.
Shades of Brown were fantastic sepia photographs capturing the moods of different wines. Unfortunatly it cost so much to produce it wast used much due to lack of funds left in the budget.
-
Another late reply because I have so much reading to catch up on. It's fun.
I tasted and then bought some Moscato from Howard Park wines in Margaret River. They make the Mad Fish variety of wines.
The Moscato was really nice, light and very nice to drink.
-
Cookie1 - that's now what I want to hear ;) :D :D :D I only want to hear that you drink Brown Brothers - LOL!!!
-
mmmmm i love brown bros
but i drink aldi LOL
-
did you get some of those cheap Vic Alps or Gapsted Zibibbos? I hardly ever go to our Aldi's but popped in there the other day and my mouth dropped at the prices!
They're up the road and are well known for copying us when they see we've got a success with a new product.
-
i have no idea what i have - i buy the ultracheap ($3) bottles for cookign and the $6-8 bottles for drinking - unless i can get omni for under $10 LOL (but TBH i only drink every few months anyway, i actually have an intolerance to alcohol lol)
-
LOL - so do I Karen - allergic to the morning after!!! :-X
I'm becoming more sensitive to wines and have to be careful what I drink now.
-
hehehe
i can't bear the thought of a 'morning after' with children! that's why my only mornings after are on my 1 or 2 child free weekends a year... only one this year and it is 149 days away LOL! not looking forward to it or anything ;)
-
LOL - MrsT has suffered unexplained (I think not) allergic reactions the next day on a few occasions recently. Usually starts with her being very jovial and talkative, but after a sleep - suddenly the allergy raises its very ugly head ;) ;) a day in bed and it goes away.
We had some BB Prosecco on Monday night.
-
Poor Mrs T. We had dinner with friends recently and the lady of the house and I were very sure the next morning that some part of the food had been "off" as we didn't feel the best. We knew that it hadn't been the wine and port we'd consumed.

???
Hope it wasn't the wine
-
i suspect it wasn't so much the wine as the alcohol content :D :D :D ;)
-
LOL!! :D :D :D :D ;D
-
???
Hope it wasn't the wine
I think that it may have been the fact that there was lots of mixing of drinks ( and not in the cocktail shaker !!) and as brazen pointed out - the total alcohol content of MrsT. ;)
-
HER alcohol content? she must have been pickled :D ;D
poor mrs T, i hope she doesn't know we are discussing her like this LOL
-
Ohhh you guys make me laugh! :D :D :D
-
Since we are in the Wang thread - does the Epicurean Centre have a TMX ?? How about some of the Italians up the King?
-
Working on it Thermomixer!!! ;)
