Just though id post a poll as havent done one before. Its nothing to do with emmigrating, or maybe it is! I was just sat here sipping my second glass of Jacobs Creek Shiraz and wondered how much everyone else drinks and do I have a problem.

Jules,
Maybe you should have reworded the poll to be "how much do you drink every day since you started seriously thinking about and applying for the Oz / NZ visa?" In which case, your numbers don't go high enough

Every Sunday after the kids have gone to bed, Val and I share a bottle of Rosemount Estate Shiraz. Favourite wine, easy listening music, candles, nice conversation - unbeatable.

In NZ I often used to get an excellent bott of Aus wine for NZD6-8 on special, that's maybe GBP 2-3.

These were goodies.

John and Jules, just to let you know hubby and I are on our third bottle of wine tonight, its been a long time since we managed to sit back and chill, enjoying every bottle, Jacobs Creek Semillon Chardonnay, By the way, it has taken me eight attempts to type this (ha ha).
