I am in Ethiopia, which has a (very) modest wine industry. I wish I could
help your collection. I have been collecting local beer labels in Amharic,
sadly the labels are usually the best part of the beer.

How many women to men in Silk? Percentage?
And how come most of them don't write or reply?
I thought I had better answer this - else it would be too ironic! I see you
and Deepa most often on Silk whereas the other women do seem absent.

(have been guilty a number of times!)
