Must admit it normally upsets me to spend more than RM 35 a bottle but..... Cold Storage have special offer of buy 5 bottles of Fat Bird and get 1 free. I am somewhat mathematically challenged, but think that works out at something like RM 35ish for a very gluggable New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Anyway got my stocks in today so I'm alright jack

Malaysia, wine and bargains - I'm not sure those words have ever been used in the same sentence before. That'd be a first, methinks. But, I'll let you know if I see any!

It's all relative of course.

Do you get dodgy booze places down in Melaka? Seems to be quite a few up here where duty free bottles have fell off the back of a boat. A certain banana leaf eatery where cheap bottles of whiskey can be bought I understand. And heard of a hairdressers in Bt Ferringhi selling wine on the side . Penang is a funny old place.

Not that I am aware of, BB. Mind you, I probably don't get out as much as I should. Been to a couple of hairdressers, though. But must be the wrong ones! Of course, strictly speaking I believe I'm not supposed to indulge. it wasn't actually mentioned at any time though, so I guess I'm confused. Easily done at my age. I tend to check the prices in Tesco, Aeon and Giant - I haven't actually seen anywhere else in or near the city that might actually sell anything remotely resembling wine!
