[kevin moore 666]

made some Manuka wine once, for the first 12 months tasted real nasty and after that really nice

[Aquila 612]

If you have to be on it for 12 months before it tastes good, I'll pass.:)

[Daley 4,341]

Uh naturally he can, but I didn't end up training him up, because I changed career paths :) Shame really I think he would've been quite good
