Lots to talk about this week in Harpers' YouTube and quirkies round-up…

Good mix this week folks. We got off to a flying start with news of a Lincolnshire bar's new gourmet offering. That's right, all your culinary dreams have been answered with the vodka burger.

Interesting clip here of a well-known supermarket wine section. It seems it's not just the retailers shaking in fear at the chancellor's recent tax hikes. Click here and all will become clear.

What Else? Well there's a smashing clip of Salma Hayek and a bottle of Campari here. There's also a genuinely interesting video from the Google collection on How to be a Master Sommelier. One caveat though, its running time is a whopping 68 minutes so not really lunch break fodder.

And Finally The World Record for cocktail mixing is 253 drinks in 60 minutes. Click here to see to the record holder in action.
