cheers,

There are vowels in 'bottle', it's not 'bttl'. 'Nothing' is not written as 'ntg'. 'Got' is not 'gt'. 'Came' is not written 'cm', and 'gave' is not 'gve'. Surely you agree that it is not his lack of English that is the problem, but that he is a lazy writer.
Anyone, including (and especially) me, can appreciate someone making an effort in a foreign language, but when it's incomprehensible through apathy, it makes me frustrated. This is a wine note - not an SMS!
I've read his note over a dozen times and I still can't make sense of it. It gives me a headache just looking at it.
I'm glad you like my cellar - I hope to be still alive when they're 'drinking'. Or should I say - "i hp 2 b stl alv whn thyr 'drnkg'..." ;-)

I too hope you're alive and healthy when your cellar 'comes in' - what great fun it will be.
ciao amico mio
