The Mrs is away and you're staying in?
Been on a 'team building day' and about 6 pints deep after being in a pub in Kings Cross since 12. Mainly drank the Hammerton Brewery 'N1' Session Pale Ale. Decent drop. Now home to a curry maybe a glass or 2 of red wine before no doubt crashing out at 11
Mrs got some Monkey 47 gin delivered today. We've just had a double with Fever Tree tonic, ice and a sliver of lime. Will then be moving on to some bog standard Dark Horse Cab Sav from Tescos.

I did 3 months a few years ago as I had a dodgy blood count in my liver but it turned out to be nothing at all. Didn't really miss it after a while but went straight back on it after the curfew. Not sure I could do it unless on medical grounds but I do now restrict myself to Friday through Sunday. The weekdays are easily taken care of now by drinking Becks Blue 0% which is just like drinking beer without drinking beer even though I rarely drink real lager these days.
I digress, as tonight I have started with a Cornish Knocker
Christ. I thought dry January was bad...
Any genuine beneficial effects other than a fatter wallet?

Or fire up the laptop and get that ol' Google search engine working over time.

Very niche choices there...red or white Ladoix and who's the producer?

Got an abscess (sp) under a tooth implant. Very strong painkillers coupled with some "non-alcohol" antibiotics are making for a trying evening. Girlfriend in NZ as well so nothing to take my mind off my gob. We'd bloody better well win tomorrow.

Splendid drop of red that. Just polished off a Ghost Ship then about to join Mrs DS in a glass or 3 of Sangre de Toro. Probably end the evening on a bottle of Lagunitas IPA....possibly the best IPA I have had the pleasure to make acquaintances with

I'm surprised she's still your girlfriend after not pulling through on Valentine's night

I got the Ladoix from Butler's, whose shop is nicely positioned right up the top of my road. He, in turn, got it from someone who had died, and got a range of aged Burgundies for very decent prices. The original cellar obviously had good humidity, which means that the labels have worn down, so can't see immediately, but if you have a look at Butler's website, you should be able to track it down. There's still a fair bit of stock left from that cellar.

Well done, er ..... I think
I may have missed the rationale for this but I hope your abstinence is achieving what you hoped for?? Haven't seen you around recently to ask but I guess that's because your so thin now that you've become invisible!!

I was implying I was home alone at the weekend. I did indeed go out on Friday night. I'm still paying for it now.
I could give her some painkillers for you. Not sure when she's leaving though.......
