Looking for a Corkscrew
-
But not just any corkscrew, the Monopol Barolo Lefthanded. If someone knows of a place this can be found please post.

A past boss of mine used to collect cork-screws. I asked why and he said he thought he should have a hobby outside of his business. Last time I saw him he had a good collection going.

if you bother to look you will see all out of stock
2nd place I looked (second place oin the Google listing), I found it in stock. Here's a link to a shopping cart with one already ordered. Cart^. You will have to pay for it yourself.

They don't have it. If you read my second posting you would see I told you I tried Google and even though hits are found claiming 'in stock' there is nothing in stock. Contact them, very nice folks, and they will tell you none in stock, has been sold out since Christmas. The same goes for Liberty Wine Merchants (all stores), La Belle Cusine (although they are asking various suppliers if any are left), and Gioia Della Casa (my Italian is rusty but still it was none). Plus a couple of others in Dublin and Berlin who are looking into it. Unless you find a store beyond the 27th page of Google and the 23rd page of Yahoo searches for 'Monopol Barolo', 'Monopol Barolo corkscrew' or 'Monopol Barolo corkscrew left' it is not in stock, no matter what your unfalliable computer tells you is in stock.

Does he need a hobby outside his cork-screw collection now?

No. He recently got married.

There is a store in Dublin which claims to have one, I asked them about it a couple of days ago and was told 'get right back to you'. Not sure I want it for what they were asking but...

As a collectors item perhaps, but if you can't use one of these: http://www.barparts.com/Waiters+Corkscrews.html[^] You shouldn't be allowed to drink wine. They are seriously easy to use with a little practice and all kinds of classy compared to the silly contraptions that have been invented since to solve a problem that doesn't really need solving. And with the rapid demise of the natural cork stopper they are even easier to use than ever.

Sadly, they become rather difficult with a lot of practice... (...presumably, that's why they sell the ones with bottle openers attached.)
