What's the worst that could happen, and it's a Malbec

 

[Is it PotG?]

Looks like Cab Sauv to me

 

[Weststander]

A hot mug of tea just now.

Plymouth Gin & tonic later this evening.

Living the dream.

Mine is, but @Midget's is a Malbec, the clues are there somewhere

Went for a white anyway, goes better with me dins


(*I don't do wine glasses at home, they're too small )

 

[dazzer6666]

Cava with me fish and chip supper, cab sauv ready for the rugby-watching. Early night then ahead of the longish drive tomorrow

 

[LamieRobertson]

Some fizzy cherry soft drink from Lidl ..living the high life

 

[pb21]

Few cans of Leffe.

Anyone noticed this is now brewed in the UK and only 6%, not 6.6% as it should be . Is this another Brexit dividend?

Cava / prosecco are so good with fish & chips

Snap! I'm making do with a G&T (albeit a generous helping) and finishing off a bottle of lowish alcohol Aussie white in the fridge - 12.5%. Then off to bed by 10pm, ready for the early start.

Wintery? It's about a zillion degrees out there. For mid-October anyway.

Approaching seven weeks dry, enforced by my dodgy heart thing.

But, but, BUT - at 3:15 today I had a call from Worthing Hospital who had a cancellation they were trying to fill.

"I don't suppose you'd be able to be here at 7:30 on Sunday morning, would you?"
"Absolutely, yes - I can come at any time you can see me."
"I wish all our patients were like you - it would make all this a lot easier."

So, I've got an imminent echocardiogram, and maybe a step closer to figuring all this nonsense out and being able to get back to running and drinking!

TL;DR - I may go crazy and have a couple of cans of Heineken Zero.

Quietly knocking back a lovely Spanish Tempranillo....Nice...

That's really good news - anything to bring a diagnosis forwards. Hope it goes well.

Heineken zero's pretty ok tbf (at non-Amex prices). We've moved on a lot from kaliber

Rugby semi-final and just opened a Grant Burge Barossa Ink Shiraz to go with it.

Kaliber!

My word that was terrible. I vaguely remember it tasted like dust.

Got a mate who's gone mostly sober these days who swears Guinness Zero is pretty much as good as the real thing but I'm not convinced, mostly because I'm the sort of throwback who thinks decaff coffee is pointless, alcohol free beer is an oxymoron and vegan bacon needs to be buried in a very deep hole.

One day it'll catch up with me and I'll start having all of those things, no doubt.

My fridats have been somewhat curtailed by high blood pressure, high cholesterol and being overweight(fat)
Mix that in with feeling lousy since last weeks flu jab and ricking my neck just by looking in the bottom cupboard PLUS extreme cramp in my upper calves early this morning....my zest for living the dream has taken a bit of a nose dive! I'm only sixty three for flips sake
Since I gave up smoking eight odd years ago, I've never felt so knackered out
