    Since when did council houses have cellars?
    Dunno..ask Rosemary West...probably in 12 years when she is released (2019) at the age of 66.

    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

        Er, guilty

        I never used to touch the stuff very much until about about twelve years ago when my GF at the time and I took a wine appreciation course at the local college.

        Can I sue the college for the damage that is apparently now being done?

          admitting to the problem is the first stage towards dealing with it, assuming you think it is a problem of course

            If you think town dwellers put it away, you should see how much they drink in the country.

            On the day of the countryside march a few years ago I had to take the tube, and happened to be in a carriage full of farmers, judging by their west country growls and drawls like Robert Newton in Treasure Island, and long sticks, and their comical reaction to seeing a fox by the tracks.

            They all had red faces, glowing like re-entry vehicles (no one could get _that_ much fresh air!), and the smell of spirits was literally overpowering, no exaggeration I almost felt faint and _I_ think nothing of polishing off half a bottle of brandy in an evening, but this was 10am ! The carriage literally smelled like somone had taken several crates of brandy bottles and smashed them one by one on the floor

                It was a reply to Zeitghost, hence lizard instead of owl.

                  Ahhh, ironically I had a fair amount of wine yesterday and missed that - my apologies...

                    No apology necessary my friend; wine is always an acceptable excuse.

                      Given the lack of opposable thumbs, presumably you have to eat the bottle to get the wine, yes?
