The younger readers on this site are getting to the point in life where they’re beginning to realise that it’s more fun to invite friends over, or go a friend’s house on the weekends. That’s because most of you live in nice places now, have decent entertainment systems, and can afford to feed guests red meat. Invariably, you’ll be invited to a friend’s house in the next three months for any number of reasons. It could be a birthday party, a job celebration, or an anniversary. Either way, it’s good manners to bring a gift, or a token of thanks. Heads up: everyone is going to be bringing flowers, or a bottle of red wine. You don’t want to be everyone, do you? You’ll be glad to know that there’s an item that serves as an excellent thank you or gift for any occasion. It’ll make you look good, and you can buy it way ahead of time. I’m talking about bubbly.
If you are over the age of 22, and you don’t have a system for emergency gifts and/or miscellaneous thank you’s, then you missed a pivotal stage in your development.
This is what you do, friend. Buy a case of Pierre Jourdan Cuvee Brut. Six bottles cost around R600 (sells for over R250 in some restaurants), which is a bargain for South Africa’s original MCC. We recommend keeping at least 12 in stock.
Next, order a run personalised thank you/I love you/you’re so nice tabs with your own personal monogram from Love Letters Stationery in Cape Town. Both the bubbly and the stationery will be delivered to your door, pre-attach those badboys to the neck of a bubbly bottle, and when the moment comes, you simply grab one of those guys and run out the door.
Perfect? Yes. It’s a pleasure.
Get the bubbly, HERE.
