V. funny - but I can see how some would take that the wrong way...

I think it's also worth pointing out to no longer atc that a blind tasting conducted by a number of FT members comparing Krug with whatever cheap champagne (carbonated with a sodastream) BA were serving in CE that day simply served to embarrass most people as IIRC there was an utter inability to tell the two apart.

The analysis that 50% were lable snobs is wrong IMO. Come on guys - you might as well have been flipping coins

no longer atc - if you like it, that's fine - I certainly don't find it objectionable and although I have enjoyed expensive champagne at the front on SQ, TG & MH in the last couple of years, I certainly don't have any great hangups over the fact BA serve Monopole.

You don't have to be a snob to hang around on this board - it just seems like that from time to time
