Lurgashall Winery Shop: The Funny Story of When I Asked Titch and Sheila to Plant a Vegetable Garden | NatSchooler.Com
In my late 20s I worked for my Father’s business, he was the founder of the Lurgashall Winery and the Lurgashall Winery shop which was also on site.
I have fond memories of working with all the great people my Dad had employed over the years. Like working in most family businesses it was not easy, your co-workers always knew one day you may be their boss and that wasn’t a good dynamic. You were a spy for their boss who was always their boss no matter how much they liked him and he liked them. Despite this, we had a pretty good life at the Lurgashall Winery. How many samples did you actually need!! 🙂
Starting out in the production department at 12 years old, I attended college to study wine and pursued a Higher National Diploma (HND) in it. When I started at Plumpton College I was the youngest person on the course at 20 years old. We explored making wine, growing grapes, tasting, marketing, importing/exporting and everything in between.
