A decent enough Malbec here too, but I confess to having a couple of glasses or more every day this week. By the time New Year comes I am going to be an alcoholic with the amount of booze in the house.

Double post

I wouldn't normally drink during the week, but fook it, it's Xmas and I've had a drink every day this week, last day at work tomorrow, until the 3rd January. 

 

Over the festive period, I'll be limiting myself to just Lager, white wine and Whisky & coke on a daily basis, that's it!

Just on the mulled wine, second bottle now.

 

It's medicinal...ask that eyewitness from the Berlin market, it saved her life...

Same format except I'm quaffing a good Rioja  :) 

Baileys Monday, Malbec tues, wed, thursday. Kicking on from tomorrow though as I'm off now and have 20% discount at the Co-op until Christmas eve.

 

Might chuck the odd pint of water in here and there before 3rd Jan too.

It started after 41 mins of leaving the office, which took 40 mins to get home...

 

See you on Wednesday. Thanks again.

 

Vodka now, Russian Standard...

Aldi's Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at £5-odd a bottle. Already done the Xmas stash this week. Finish work tomorrow so off to Aldi again to restock

I genuinely think due to the Christmas date, we are going to see serious casualties in the rough as roll fuck call next week.

 

My head is already like a Whirling Dervish.

alberts  FUCKED

 

porn stat martinnes  £8 get to fuck give me 3 pints of Bitter

It still amazes me, grown adults admitting to drinking large quantities of alcohol, and thinking "it's cool".

 

A bit like smoking round the back of the bike sheds @ school when you're 14.

 

It ain't.....

Joining in with topic... I've had at least a glass of wine every night for a week now where as usually only have a tipple on a weekend. Gone for Californian red this year along with the usual Malbec.

It still amazes me, grown adults admitting to drinking large quantities of alcohol, and thinking "it's cool".

what the fuck are you talking about   :blink:

Got the last bottle of champagne in aldi and a Malbec and prosecco magnum.

 

Then got 80 quids worth of booze for £15 in Co-op

 

Should tide us over til boxing day.

That's some staff discout!

Not a drop since Monday. Will no doubt sink a few of the Cru des Cotes du Rhone  from Asda reduced from £10.50 to £6.00 that I've stocked up on over the last 8 weeks tonight till xmas eve. A light quaffable red which only leaves a slight fuzzy head after 2-3 bottles.

 

Then seriously its a couple bottles of Sancere ice cold and one good bottle of vintage Amarone for the xmas table.

What is?

That's some staff discout!

They've started doing 5% banked as points when you buy a coop branded product. Another 1% goes to the local community think Horwich was some elderly care scheme.

 

Some of the coop wines are very nice so I'd banked 43 quid through that since it started! Then a further 20% off this week for staff discount.

 

Ace.

Nice one stevie. That 1% is handy, Adlington Scout Group is sharing it with a good cause in Horwich for the coop's in Htown/Aggy and it will end up with a couple of grand or more for each charity.

Aye I saw that. Think the Horwich one wanted about £600 for a day trip out, when I checked it was at about £3.5 split with the scout group.

I wanted to say the same but didn't want to say owt.

 

I was supping beer round the bike sheds when I was 14!

 

I was dead cool :lol:

Keep me on carling I can do 10-12 pints in a few hours without a problem. No issues, no dramas.

 

Throw one spirit or a glass of wine in there or even a couple of premium rate lagers, its goodnight Irene and a total game changer.

Aye, it is good that the coop support local causes. Both work hard for the community and are run by volunteers only.

I am the same with the exception that 10 pints of any lager in a few hours would probably kill me.

If I stick to wine I can clear a couple of bottles but the next day would be a total write-off. Cheap date me! :D
