Eurostar arrives on time for strike threatened party
The event was completely sold out with a considerable waiting list. As there were so many wines to try we held a walk round tasting down below in the brasserie section and then the dinner upstairs. The evening was a great success – we even managed to keep roughly to time!
The stars from the Layon – Martie-Annick and Yves Guegniard, Catherine and Vincent Ogereau and Joëlle and Claude Papin – arrived in London early yesterday afternoon for a brief 24-hour visit for a couple of tastings at the RSJ. Unfortunately the six are threatened with transport strikes on both sides of the Channel. Starting yesterday evening there is a 24-hour London tube strike and when they get back to Paris later today they could hit the start of a French rail strike.
