Spent the day up at Vinopolis, the 'wine experience' under London Bridge Station.

We are to take over the shop there next month. It's very exciting for me. I guess I have railway arches in my blood, having started off under Windsor Central Station. We plan to make it more of a events place than a shop.

All our shops do events (I'm doing a tasting tonight at the Surbiton shop) but Laithwaites at Vinopolis should do far more. Ideas welcome. Tho' we already have a few.

I look forward to appearing there regularly,  even if it's only because each time I go there I can also visit Borough Market right next door. My idea of heaven. Quite a buzzy part of town, Southwark; the Tate, the Globe, the Market ... the Laithwaites ?

  1. Greatnews about taking over at Vinopolis, My wife Marion and I cut our wine drinking teeth at the venue and loved the experience. We can't wait to get back and sample the delights with Laithwaites at the helm.

    Cheers and good luck
