 For the "conversation English" student at the end of the course, we choose an entertainment that tests their ability...

German student, Walter Jentzsch, was 'tested' by going to an evening of  rapid-fire humour .. he reported it was "fast but highly entertaining "

  Walter had a table beside the stage with us, but everyone had clear views as they filled the tent and ate dinner, wine, coffees and the great company of their friends.

    This show was called "A bit TOUCHed OF THE IRISH" with saw Gary McCormick and Ginette MacDonald at their best spliced between four rousing 'Irish'-styled gigs by the husband and wife Wellington group, "Hobnail Boots". Part of a summer season entertainment at Ascension Vineyard, Warkworth.  Everyone enjoyed themselves hearing this cutting humour with gags.


Irish gig styled, married couple from Wellington were "very good", Walter  said.


Assertion Vineyard provides regular entertainment with meals available to patrons.

Darryl Soljan, Ascension Vineyard owner, introduced his entertainers with a flair that suggests he might well join in the entertainment himself...

.. with Gary McCormick back yet again as a very well liked personage in Warkworth,  with but Ginette MacDonald of "Lyn of Tawa" fame, but this time brilliantly well spoken and capable of varied dialectal dexterity....

Walter also visited MOTAT
