Back in February of 2016 I reported that Kimbo had bought cases of wine for each of his two sons, from the years of their births. The wines were laid down, and were not to be opened until their 18th birthdays.
Harv was given a case of Chateau Grandis, an Haut-Médoc wine from 2006.
Here he is looking very happy with his father's choice.
Now that Suave-Harv' has reached his 18th, it was time to broach the first of the bottles.
So, down to imaginary cellar they went, brushed away the imaginary cobwebs, then brought-up the dust covered bottles. The wooden case was prized open, and here he is (disguised) with the first of many, that was consumed with many an 'Oooh' and 'Aaah'.
Sadly I was here in France, so unable to enjoy the occasion with him.
Happy Birthday dear boy!

Where did those 18 years go.
He's now about as tall as his father too. A lovely boy.
This is a special gift. Happy birthday to the boy.
18 already? Crikey. That went quick.
It's now that you realise how quickly those years have passed!
What a great idea for an 18th birthday.
I believe they had a wonderful evening, with fresh Lobster on the menu.
It hardly bares thinking about.
He's now a student, and currently working as a Lifeguard for the Summer.
One that they appreciate more than a silk tie.
A lovely far-seeing thing to do. Of course, Kimbo did not get to drink a drop.
18? Unbelievable! Happy Birthday Harvey.
They grow up so fast, and we grow old - just as fast.
I believe he 'helped'.
He'll be having children of his own before too long.
Sadly that is true, especially the latter,
A very happy birthday boy
Glug, glug!
Cheers to Harvey. 18 and making his way in the world.
He's still a bit undecided about what path he'll take in life, but I'm sure he'll do well, whatever he chooses.
