Well, it'd be a shame to waste it... Don't forget to have another bottle breathing ready for the meal...Originally posted by Lucifer BoxAnd, of course, I drink the other half of the bottle before the dish gets to the table.
Btw, I've just caught my cat drinking my Baileys night-cap! So, must go and kick the crap out of him!

I rarely have any left overs because I cunningly don't cook at all over Christmas - this year I was with the boyf's family Xmas Day and at my parents on Boxing Day. No cooking, no washing up, no left overs - it all gets dealt with by whoever I'm visiting! Superb!Comment

"Alfonse" meant someone who drummed up trade for prostitutes.
Now there was a "Ponce de Alfonse"
the rest is left as an exercise for the reader...Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.
