...finishing one in an evening a bad thing?

I used to like wine boxes cos no one knew how much I was drinking, and they always seemed to go on forever....

but now they seem to always run out

Time for alcoholics anonymous, or time to move onto the whisky?

..... I'll have a whisky while you decide....

Well, as it was my birthday, we started off today with pears poached in Calvados for an afternoon sweetner....

...then out to pub at 5pm - 2 large glasses of house white, and get rest of bottle free - £7 - so had 1.5 glasses each.

Then to next pub for 2 pints.

Then curry at restaurant with 2 x Cobras.

Then over to Italian across road for sweet & tia maria coffees.....

Then home where wife flaked out, and me starting on the vodka while chatting about Eastenders.....

PS - 3ltr wine box @ 12% = about 35 units....

That's about 11 pints of Stella.....

So, not TOO bad if only done once in a while.......

ajm

here's the pesky item in question!

Not my normal tipple... waitrose has stopped stocking the Hardys, but agreeable nontheless!

Hehe - been there and tried that wine box - makes you feel all worthy as it is in a plain brown recycled cardboard box :-)

You're prob asleep in the land of nod by now after all that.........

doh... too late!

Banrock Station is a fine choice of wine!!

Lap it up!

ajm

I have.... thats the problem!

I am at a moral dilema now... I only had 2 shots of scotch in a hip flask, which now leaves tiger beer (which I cant face at the moment) or opening a bottle of Corbieres, which I hasten to add was a present - I don't buy French produce..... what to do?

imlach

You'll feel $+ite in the morning whatever by now......

You'll regret it tmmrw, but no doubt are saying "oh **** it" tonight.....

Buckrogers

Call the AA, tell them you have a problem.

"Can you call into an offy on the way to fix my car...?"

ajm

ha ha.... actually I am thinking "how can I make it to the pub for the rugby tomorrow in good working condition!?"



would a couple of pints of water do it?

I have the stained purple lips and tongue which will definately go against me

Buckrogers

Water definatley good idea before going to sleep. I try and always drink at least a pint after a session.

Enjoy the rugby, fingers crossed for England.

Wineboxes are to the noble grape are what Tony Blair is to ethical politics.

uurrggghh....

update... just woke up still with purple mouth like ghandis flip flop, bangin head ache and a distinct case of nausia.

Wine boxes may be uncouth but they are the only inexpensive way of scofficg back large quantites of the old plonk.

Now going back to bed...

uuurrrggggh!

Make sure you're in the pub and drinking by around 12 - that way you'll be rockin come kick-off time

May I congratulate your syntax & grammar - let alone being able to attach a pic when you are pi$$ed

Now drink less or end up like George Best!

ajm

Feeling much better now, time for a shower and off to the pub
