A great tribute to the man and the place he created .... and thank you for using the ‘d.....’ word. I am getting increasingly infuriated by this ubiquitous use of ‘passing.’ Passing beyond the veil is a curious notion and abbreviated to ‘passing’ it makes even less sense. My husband died. My son died too. We need to be able to talk about the way death affects us all and not try to avoid the issue with weasel words.

I’m disabled, based in Oxfordshire; hence travelling to London is now a problem. When you are recommending places in, or near my area, I shall definitely take note. Anyway, I do enjoy your comments, and as a member of The Wine Society and as a recipient of Decanter magazine, I follow your views with great interest. Thank you! John Howden Richards
