Beach or wine?

I’ve had a lousy, hot day at work. DH and the kids are out tonight and I have the house to myself. Do I stay home and drink wine in the garden? Tempting as I am knackered…Or drive 20 mins to the beach for a swim? Which might make me feel better…

alas wine on the beach isn’t possible due to driving

Can you swim, drive home, then have wine later?

Swim. You can drink wine at anytime. But swimming in the sea in the UK needs a bit of luck and a heatwave...

I'd definitely go to the beach...I love swimming in the sea.. I'm very jealous you can do that so easily.

I agree with previous posters go for a swim enjoy the beach, I am envious of you also!
Even if you don't have a glass of wine when you get home because your family is home, who cares? As was noted you can have wine anytime!
Have a lovely time at the beach!
