Successfully made a rum and ginger ale last night that was strong enough to give me a hangover from one glass. Not sure if that's a good thing!

After my disappointing Moretti, I had a gin (King of Soho) and 3/4 of a bottle of red. A nice Malbec. Would recommend. I had a headache from this too...sweated it out though so all good.

So you're ready for tonight then? 😀
Nice day here, had a 10k run & currently chilling inside. I may have to open a beer & sit outside mid-afternoon at this rate.

Had three large bottles of Corona, so just over 3 and a half pints, and a bottle of wine over the course of the last 10 hours ish. Could do with more but the booze has ran out

This or positive thread?
Anyway, back at my regular haunt. Drinking beer. My tab from other night when I didn’t have wallet does not exist.
Which is nice. That was 4-5 beers and a couple tequilas

Woodford reserve is back down to £25 on Amazon.
Although that means I won't be drinking it tonight of course... Damnit!

I have some Menabrea and a random session IPA to try. And wine, obviously.

I'm having neighbours coming over and it's white wine and French cheese/meat type of snacks. Red would be much better for that ofc, but I don't really do that as it fucks up the colour of your teeth.

Yeah, I love a glass of red but feel like I need to brush my teeth after a couple of glasses. My mouth gets nasty after a full evening of only drinking that.
It's probably just cheap wine in fairness.

In my experience it isn't. Any red will do that.

Meh, my teeth are fucked anyway.

Probably from all the red wine. I prefer reds too.

Well, I redid most of my teeth last year, ground down as they were from years of gnashing them in my sleep from stress, so I'm trying to have them last me as long as possible now, colour included.

It seems to vary hugely, some wines hugely discolour my teeth (temporarily) but not other people, not all wines etc. Who cares, you can rinse and brush your teeth later as it's fucking delicious. I'm going to buy some lamb and drink this

Ooof, 14.5%. Can't cope with that these days!

There's a 15% in our latest delivery. Practically sherry at that strength.

Pop a straw in your glass, teeth saved.
Not sure what I'm going to be drinking tonight. I fancy red wine but that's an Autumn/winter drink for me.
I will settle for beers and white wine I think.

Just had a new whisky delivered. It's one of those "from a distillery but we aren't telling you which one" jobs. From Islay, The Ileach. Cask strength, 58%....so it will go a bit further, helping with the cost of living crisis.

I bought saddle of lamb, never cooked (or maybe had) that before, quite excited. Weekend + red wine + lamb = good times
Also washed all the pollen from the balcony to make it habitable again, fucking disgusting stuff.

What spooky said. Thing is, my wife doesn't drink red anymore (used to, but after kids it gives her the grue). So whilst I have these vacu-vin things, I rarely seem to use them.
