A nice 91 point Spanish Red and some good cognac. Cheers

7up.

Yep, I’m a real wild one right?

Had a few last neyt in company, and I’m just a social drinker, so unless I’m out, I don’t bother.

Just got rid myself, I know of about 20 people with it at the moment when for the past 2 years I only ever knew of 1-2 at anytime.

Fed up of drinking, dry Jan starts tomorrow so just having 1-2 more beers tonight and no doubt will be fast asleep by 10

Get yourself gone!

Went to Dubai (only place open - wouldn't normally go) and Portugal this year. Apart from a mask or two, it was about as normal as could be!

It's got me thinking actually. I've been to Benidorm and Pamplona in the last 5 years, but think I could do with some sort of break.

Working on my laptop whilst on a cruise sounds very tempting.

Beagle · Post by **Beagle** » Fri Dec 31, 2021 8:15 pm

Just had a couple pints of bitter down the local, and soon I’ll be off to a small get together with friends where I’ll have a few glasses of fizz as the clock strikes midnight.
Happy New Year to all Clarets.

ClaretAndJew · Post by **ClaretAndJew** » Fri Dec 31, 2021 8:16 pm

At the moment, California IPA.

Soon, Pilsner Urquell.

Class.

Italian lager is great, but doesn't half give you a hangover. Just ask Mario (TallPaul).

Speaking of Blue Nun, I've actually been eyeing up an ancient bottle of Liebefraumilch. Retro is all the rage, yes?
