Genuinely wonderful staff on the @Amtrak @RideRail Downeaster 696 today. They made travel with an 18-month-old so much easier. The little man is now obsessed with trains!

It’s a really interesting read from @BronwenPercival @NealsYardDairy Enjoy!
After it was mentioned during #BritishCheeseWeekender I ordered this from @WorldofBooksltd didn’t expect a signed copy 😊research time @cheese_academy
Calling all wine communicators - entries for the last ever Roederer awards close tomorrow. And yes, it’s definitely still happening - I’ve just been reminded of my responsibilities as a judge. #LRIWWA #Roederers
🎷@LouisRoederer_ are delighted to announce that the #LRIWWA will be open for entries from Wednesday 12th February! After a fantastic 16 years championing excellence in wine writing and artistry around the world, this will be the final year of ‘The Roederers’.
The hospitality industry currently lacks good news stories. Thank you @codehospitality for publishing the 100 Most Influential Women in Hospitality list, which includes our talented colleague and friend @browenpercival, Buying and Technical Manager.
WBWL awards will still continue. Anyone who already entered their list will be in the judging process which is not affected by the Covid-19 crisis, anyone still wishing to submit their wine list can do so till the end of April. Results will be published as usual by December 2020.
Some personal news. Everyone is self isolating, but @BronwenPercival and I will be off the grid for a while as we welcome the new little guy. He would not be here without the superlative care that we have received from the team at @GSTTnhs. We are incredibly happy and grateful.
Deeply flattered to feature in this @FT piece on pressure cookers from the great @fuchsiadunlop. The piece mentions beef cheeks, but the combination of @RanchoGordo beans and our pressure cooker is central to how we eat chez Percival ft.com/content/296f84…
Final morning of tasting of judges' selections @texsomiwa. Some great wines today and lovely to taste with @MattWilkinMS @SSMMW @petermarksmw Quite spooky unanimity on the panel. #texsomiwa
It is Texas all day for table 5 @texsomiwa. Great fun to taste with @robertjoseph @rodphillipswine as we get started after lunch with a flight of High Plains rosé. #texsomiwa
