It's not the same poured over Bran Flakes  I'm changing back to semi skimmed 

It seems we start on the sweeter easy drinking white  wines, then progress to the more trendy and complicated red ones?

I genuinely like sweet wines... but I'm probably too much of a snob to buy them now.

The only "sophisticated" wine I really like the taste of, is Merlot, preferably from a hot country 

I used to drink wine...... now i drink vodka

Wanna come round mine

A lovely wine is Brown Brother - Orange Muscat and Flora - my fave!!!

Vodka and I have a nasty relationship.  

My dad used to call it vicious vodka whenever my mom used to have it Ells, im ok on though (most of the time)

Vodka has no taste... til you wake up the next day  

Does if you shot it

Aww it has a VERY bad taste to me.  So I drown it with whatever I can and then don't realise how much I'm actually drinking.  I annoy myself when I'm on vodka...I know I'm talking too much but can't stop.  I'm full of great ideas (like going to visit my mum at 4am) aswell.  Next morning is usually horrific! Hangover central.

I'm off drink now til Saturday  swear.

What you just gonna stick to the petrol until then?

They say there are some "unhappy" drinks... like vodka and gin. I believe that, they just make you sloshed and more depressed, not happy. Whiskey and wine I stick too 

Do I admit that the only way I can drink wine is by diluting it with lemonade   a good glass of wine is wasted on me

White cider and chenin blanc  

Stay away from electrical appliances and sharp knives.

Me too

White cider?!? No wonder your posts get a bit strange some nights! That stuff is evil! (and thats coming from a vodka drinker!)Never make a snake bite with white cider either lethal

Anyone tried BUCKFAST?

I have to go to bed after nightshift

BUT feel free to exorcise yourself and your Buckfast

I've never tried it myself, but tramps sleeping in doorways swear by it. 

Yes....I was feeling ashamed for admitting to drinking Lambrini but Renton has just crossed the line.

It's enough to make you swear  

There was a generation though who used Buckfast as a tonic- a capful a day .

ooooh I just wikied Buckfast - can't believe I'd never heard of it before.

 Really? I heard about Guinness, prescribed to keep your iron levels up 

Buckfast was also favoured by the odd student in my day.

Yeah i heard doc's used to give pregnant women a prescription for a 1/2 pint of Guinness a day lol

Ah ken 

Just had a read about it there too Sooz, seems they changed the recipe and the label now states it doesn't have tonic properties ! The other one folk used to take for medicinal purposes  was Sanatogen tonic wine .
