Well I usually drink red wine (Australian Shiraz is my current choice) for health reasons of course.:D

I also enjoy a decent glass of cider preferably "Strongbow" but damn it's expensive.

The local stuff "Growers" or "Okanagan" tastes perfumed to me.:mad:

Cheers

Of course it's for health reason, why else would you drink.

On my part the health reason is for the sake of my sanity :beer: :beer:

Mine's anything with alcohol in it please, not too dry though !

Seriously, love red wine, easy drinking and not dry, favourite is the Pinot Noir or Pinotage variety but for cheap but good I can recommend the Tesco Valpolicella or Motepilciano D'Abruzzo (Easy, Light, refreshing and not dry), less than £3 and better than many at twice the price.

If it wasn't for health reasons I really wouldn't be drinking red wine, I'd prefer the cider.

I generally go for the 3 litre box, more value for money :beer:


Or is it just that I drink alot :scared: :beer:

If celebrating tho try a nice bottle of Chateau nuf de papp OH really rates it. Easy to get in a red, quite hard to find in a white tho. :(

So red wine it is then, there you go love enjoy ;)

I will have to decline the ice 'cos I don't like my liquor watered down ;) I'd like a slice of lemon though please. Sorry for the delay in my reply, I must've dropped off while watching the football :zzz: :zzz:

The bar is really quiet tonight, I suspect something is going on and no one has invited me :(

I think I might call the staff and tell them not to bother coming in tonight. :D

Or maybe RAC for when you crash the car :rolleyes:

It's always quiet round here at the weekend.

Mine's a red wine please! preferably a Blossom Hill, California. Nice and cheap from Asda...£3.73!!!! But it tastes gorgeous...honest! Even OH agrees. :)
Not that he gets a look in mind!

I also wouldn't say no to a Jim and coke. I've never had Pimms, what's it like?

Cheers me dears! :beer:

PS. Can you start me up a tab? I'll be back for more. :p
