Is it too early to open the wine?

[spinthebottle]

I’ve got 3 children aged 8 5 and 8 months old. Garden is tiny. Lots of fights all day and a moany baby because it’s hot. I usually wait until 7. Too early?

No it’s ok. It’s a bank holiday.

It's 7:15 where I live

I'd get them to bed first to be honest though, so you can relax. Or get their dad to put them to bed if he lives with you and hasn't been pulling his weight...

I’m halfway through a glass. Pull up a pew and join me

I've opened my birthday Champagne. Life's too short. Cheers!

6pm seems quite late to me.

Anytime after noon is acceptable in these times.

Nope cheers

Ah piss it I’m opening the wine! I’m convinced . Baby is asleep and the others are on their screens . Bar is now officially open!

I’ll be pouring myself a large glass of fine (or 3) very shortly. My two have drove me to insanity today

I’m about to open the Prosecco which has been chilling in the fridge since this morning. The teenagers are in charge of the BBQ (under DH’s supervision), so hopefully I don’t need to cook this evening.

@mommathatwearspink I don’t know how primary teachers do it! I love my kids and I’m so happy they’re safe and in good health but man alive I couldn’t do this with 30 kids on a daily basis! Ha!

Go for it!

Certainly not. The start of "Magic Hour" was 6pm for the Queen Mum so if it's good enough for royalty...

Oh get on with it!! I’ve so far sunk 2 cocktails
It’s sunny, it’s good Friday, we don’t have anywhere to be, the kids (15, 14 and 8) are all playing something somewhere together. I’m in the garden, dh is firing up the bbq for some steaks in a bit.
I’ll drink to that

Ive got 3 under 6 so its a god no from me im just waiting to get the 2yo to bed before i start
