I can`t believe you can even see if you are on your second
I am struggling on my< first bottle of empty wine

cornsillk · 31/07/2009 00:19

Lady Evenstar you are clearly a more ahem seasoned drinker (like me). One bottle is sometimes not quite enough...

brimfull · 31/07/2009 00:26

blimey
good going but I bet you wake up at 3 am can't sleep

How do you get to enjoy wine?

Do you actually LIKE the taste?
Every time I have drank it (love the slightly merry feeling from it) I have had to knock it back fast as it tastes like vinegar, really nasty. And the sweet stuff i thought would be better was like sherry!

Would love to be able to have the odd glass and actually enjoy it.

You need to soak up the booze with fruitcake (voice of experience)
