[Fot] Retro Car Bottle Holder...

[Joe Alexander]

Yes, I have two or three of the TR3 Avon bottles.

But it’s never occurred to me to used it.

Getting the JAMESON was important because I gave it up for Lent.  That's why we're running low on wine.  Anyway, Sunday is Easter.  During Lent I discovered that Shirley has acquired a taste for JAMESON.  This has been impacting supply and demand aspects.  Anyway...I go a bottle, and now we're ready for Easter.

Well, during the checkout process, up on a shelf behind the counter, I was tickled to see a ceramic red Triumph TR3 wine bottle holder.  Produced by Foster & Rye, it's ceramic coated polyresin, and called a Retro Car Bottle Holder.  It is more of a 'cartoon character TR3' than a realistic, accurate model.  But it is well made, substantial and well able to display your favorite bottle of wine triumphantly.  I googled them and they seem to be available from a half dozen sources, at prices from $20 to $30 each.  I paid $22.
