BILL OF THE WEEK
A BIT of an unusual one this week from the St Pancras Grand Champagne Bar, whose proprietors must have been rubbing their hands together with glee after a City commuter got carried away before his journey home recently.

The bottle, one of only a hundred in circulation in the world, comes wrapped in a sheath of white gold with a laser engraved Dom Perignon label, hence the hefty price tag.
Let’s hope our moneyed connoisseur took his purchase back home to savour for a special occasion…
