pinotgrigio · 19/10/2005 07:58

I wanted wine because a) it's my favourite thing and b) I always wanted to be a sommelier.

Choosing out of my favourite wines I didn't want chardonnay as it was too footballers wives, I think Chablis was taken and at the time I preferred Pinot Grigio to Chenin Blanc.

Pagan · 20/10/2005 13:12

After one of the main characters in a cheesy glam 80s drama called Lace. I would probably consider myself as a bit of a pagan if caught up in a religious conversation. Not a practising one but it all seems more natural which makes more sense to me.
