was planted in 1976 with initial plantings of Cabernet, Rhine Riesling,
Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The vineyard now covers four hectares
including Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Shiraz and Merlot with the grafting
of Rhine Riesling to Pinot Noir nearly complete. The vineyard was
named Affleck (a corruption of 'achadh-nan-leac' — the field
of stones or stoney field) after the farm in Huntly, Scotland occupied
by the Hendry family for more than 250 years.
One of the oldest and smallest wineries in the Canberra district,
offering both excellent table and fortified wines. There are lovely
picnic areas and cheese platters can be purchased. |

Alcoholics Anonymous
is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength
and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem
and help others to recover from alcoholism.
The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking.
There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-supporting
through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination,
politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in
any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary
purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.
Only you can decide whether you want to give A.A. a try - whether
you think
it can help.
We who are in A.A. came because we finally gave up trying to control
our drinking. We still hated to admit that we could never drink safely.
Then we heard from other A.A. members that we were sick. (We thought
so for years!) We found out that many people suffered from the same
feelings of guilt and loneliness and hopelessness that we did. We
found out that we had these feelings because we were sick with alcoholism.
We decided to face up to what alcohol had done to us. Remember, there
is no disgrace in facing up to the fact you have a problem. |
