There's a bottle of red in the cellar that's calling me. Note the date - I'd have been born today if I hadn't used the cord like a bungee rope. My Dad's birthday today - I'd have made a great present if I'd got my act together :D

Not at all :angel: I move in the shadows - all that attention makes me nervous :D Just me and alcohol - like it's always been since I was eighteen. I have a meal with my parents but that's it. No fuss. One year less to live :p: I was pointing out the significance of the date - it been the day I should have been born and my Dad's birthday.

Went down a treat which is quite good as I came back from a booze cruise a few weeks ago with lots of bottles of the stuff :drunk:

Trouble is it's one of the bottles where the screw bit is all plastic and it all twizzes round so I keep trying to screw it off but nothing to grip onto (us girlies know all these technical terms :D )

I'm sorry, but if you add a mixer to a spirit, it might as well be 'stock' - any bourbon will do, saves a few quid ;) - save the real JD for true sipping whisky moments ;)

Re: What are you drinking?
 
For drinking neat whisky, you can't beat a Jameson's (IMO, but I am sure someone will correct me).
