I can't believe it's Wednesday afternoon already! Normally I'm looking forward to weekend about now, but I'm up to my eyes in work, my desk is piled high and there's no sign of things slowing down. I need a Girl Friday... any takers?

:: BIG NOSE IS BACK!
Our esteemed leader decided that it would be a good idea to do some video walk-throughs of the BoozeMonkey features to guide people through: the question we get asked most is "how do I...?" so it makes sense to show you rather than to write it down and ask you to follow the instructions. We're in the digital age, after all.

But with me working flat out on other things, he somehow got it into his head that he should have a crack at the videos himself. Fair play to him for trying of course, but if ever a bloke had a face for radio... and whoever stole his eyebrows, if you could just stuff them in an envelope and mail them back to him here at BoozeMonkey HQ, I know he would be grateful.

Anyway, you will notice on the right hand side of the homepage (under the New Members section) there is a link to "BOOZEMONKEY 101 VIDEOS". There's another link in the maroon bar at the top of the page too.

I'm told that more videos will follow later this week (oooh, the excitement!) but it would be great to get some feedback on the current ones (be blunt, he's got a thick skin). And if you have any ideas for NEW videos you would like to see, please let us know: you can leave comments here.

:: WINE SAMPLES FOR VIDEO REVIEWS
Talking of videos, we're working on video wine reviews with a Sommelier here in Sydney (you will meet him soon), so we're putting the call out to all our wineries for samples: if you would like us to review your wine then please forward your samples to:

BoozeMonkey HQ
21 Fallon Drive
Dural, NSW 2158

:: NZ WINE ONLINE COMPETITION
There's no competition this week, but I'm giving you a heads-up for next week because NZ Wine Online will be our competition sponsor. I will let you know the prize details next Tuesday, but if you take a look at their website, you will see that it's jam-packed with over 200 great Kiwi wines. I wouldn't mind winning some of that myself. Maybe they won't recognise me if I wear a hat...

Okay, that's all from me for today. I hope that you enjoy what's left of the week, and that you manage to squeeze some fun out of Thursday & Friday.

Cheers!

Matt
