The only bottles we have are some I got for my birthday that I don't feel I should open on any old Friday just cos.
wwyd?

I'd open the wine.

:) well that's me convinced ;)

Just drink the wine

Cheers

Oh I know what you mean! I have 'special' bottles that I like to keep for an occasion. Can you come up with an idea for an occasion? A reason to celebrate with a nice bottle of wine? :)

Open it....there's not that many special Friday's to be hanging around for

When else would you drink them?
It's Friday cheers!

You have bottles? Plural? Open one. It's Friday. Cause for celebration.
Be like the Queen and have more than one birthday!!

Open it!

And talking of the Queen, you could always say you were opening a special one to be patriotic?

Queen's birthday this weekend so have a drink for her maj.

it's Friday what more reason do you need

Bumbley do you know I managed to get two free conference places today. So yes...celebration!

NoT sure about the queen, did she do anything for mine?

Also, it's not just any old Friday. Apart from being the Queen's official birthday, here is a link to more things to celebrate today www.checkiday.com/ one of these should appeal?

There you go! Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉

Have you seen the film Sideways (it's great - worth a watch). Anyway the lead character is a total wine buff and saves lots of bottles. And he meets an equally fanatic wine buff and he says he's saving some special vintage for a special occasion and she says, "the day you open some special vintage IS a special occasion."

I always keep that advice in mind.

even though I mainly have cheap and cheerful wine in

I had a lovely bottle of Perrier jouet Belle Époque that I kept for about 3 years.

Special occasion rolled around.... It was flat and all yellow. Really gross.

I know never keep "nice" wine. Drink it. No more special occasion than the present!

Mmmm

Cheers everyone
Off to Google sideways

Sometimes it is so much nicer to just open a nice bottle on an ordinary evening.

My new years resolution was to stop saving the best for a special day and to enjoy it. Glasses, booze, bras, I'm enjoying it all. Open the wine.

I open a bottle of prosecco nearly every Friday at 8 pm. Feels like such a treat even if it cost a fiver from aldi. I'm sure the people who gave you your birthday wine want you to drink it not save it no matter how special it is. Is it normal, a bit treaty or very very special wine.

Start of the Euros football in France tonight.

If it is French wine then it is a sign.

That's a lovely resolution Jay
