Well it was deemed that this weekend would see the end of dry January and time to roll off the waggon.

Friday, I just didn’t fancy it

Last night I tried harder. 1st I went for a Corona to give a compareison against the Hein 0.0 I have a taste for. The Corona tasted metallic, it was quite a shock and chucked it and moved on to the Rioja. That hit the spot!

Had about half a bottle...or 1.5 glasses in Conaero measures.

I must confess I got quite a bit of head spin off that. Another couple and I would have run screaming to the kebab shop so called it a day

Have grabbed a Peyrabon for tonight, and then the 2010 Batailley will be for Sunday lunch. Yum.

Magnum of Batailley 2010 for lunch? Lovely.
As the old saying goes; a magnum of good claret is just perfect for two gentlemen luncheon together.. providing you’ve had a bottle of Champagne beforehand!

Yep - got a magnum of Champers lined up also. It’s the Gosset, in that light gold coloured box next to the Batailley.
I should add that it’s my Birthday lunch. I don’t bring out the good stuff every single Sunday. More’s the pity.

Very nice Ewan, even if it is a special occasion. Great champagne Gosset. Many happy returns, I’m pretty confident you’ll have a great day!

Actually I don’t C. But I am Danish so appreciate danish craftsmanship, especially as I live abroad. No real cars produced in DK so I make do with Lego, B&O, Danish furniture & design and of course, Danish bacon ;)

Makes perfect sense. Some of the design is sublime.
