The amount I drink varies so if I'm doing a lot of driving and/or training for something sporty then I drink a lot less."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Happy New Year!
I lasted 18 hours. Just made my first Espresso Martini.
No no no! I lasted 12 hours - I had some champers for lunch with some smoked salmon earlier.
Maybe I'll make 2014 the year I don't have a day without some fine wine, cocktails or champers!
