I bought two cases of bottles and 1 case (6) of magnums in about '90. I'll have to check, but around £50/bottle, slightly more than pro-rata for the magnums, from memory.

I've just found a sinlge bottle price online. **** a duck!

Well, it's also 26 years ago, so wasn't a particular steal at the time. My wine drinking has been pretty much self-financing for 20 years...

I'm sure it was a fair penny when purchased. But what an investment. Enjoy!

Squash or water for me too. Going to take a temporary break the day after the Sheff Weds game for my mate's 40th though.

Why does the term mac and cheese remind me of a big fat yank? Macaroni cheese is the same dish, yet reminds me of something so very different.
Now that you mention it, I have the same image as you for Mac n cheese, which is radically different for macaroni cheese. Weird.

Having not drunk much for 3 months, I'm having a Wet January I think...

You're not normal, Rob, like [MENTION=27447]Goldstone1976[/MENTION] and I, you're a wine snob and a wine bore
Next time you're doing fancy Italians, you know where to find me
All blokes, I'm afraid, so not for me. I'll let them know you're interested though.
Oh, wait...
I'm in the spare bed tonight so I reckon I might get stuck into some port!!

Off up to a friends tomorrow, about 2 miles away, for a meal with the intention of alcoholic refreshment. However the downside of living in more rural surroundings is that it seems NO taxi drivers will admit to working weekends so can't order a cab so will have to drive so no alcohol (Maybe just the one ). That means I will certainly be partaking this evening with a double dose to make up for it!
I remember a few years ago ringing around for a taxi one evening for a dinner guest and the closest I got was "Well I am supposed to be on tonight but I have a had a drink so can't come out"

True. But with a rich man's tastes and a poor man's pocket.
