    Easily done. I do a zoom call with my sister most Saturdays. She's in Canada so we start 10pm our time. I've usually had a couple of glasses by then. By the time we finish the call a couple of hours later I can easily have gone through a couple of bottles. I've switched to cups of tea to save my poor liver!

    Struggling this year. We normally get a gite in France for our main holiday in Sept and a hotel for wedding anniversary in November and stock up while we're over there but of course haven't been able to go this year and paying English prices breaks my heart.

    I'm into the old home brew as well. Got a 40 pint keg of IPA been conditioning for a month. About 25 bottles of oaked apple cider. Still got 15 or so bottles of bitter from earlier this year which is a lovely session beer. There is the last few pints of amber in a keg to finsh as well. Not all for Christmas but will keep me singing along.

    Will stock up on some decent malts and I always get given a couple of bottles from family.

    The good lady takes care of wine and anything else. We always seem to get through a bottle of port and I cant stand the stuff! We also have a champagne and orange juice as a christmas morning treat as well for some reason so there will be a bottle of that somewhere.

    I bought 8 cases of wine last year for the festive season, so 48 bottles. The major retailer ( who i shall not name) ****ed up and delivered a second caseload a few days later that the Mrs signed for, not knowing I'd signed for the first batch as I'd stashed the boxes in the shed.

    "Oh no, we should contact them...."
    "never look a gifthorse in the mouth dear"
    "what the **** is a gifthorse"
    "just have a drink, woman"

    We demolished the lot with a few guests. Taking it easier this year, just the 4 cases, some whisky and vanilla rum. maybe a few gottles of geer

    That would last me until I die and even then there would still be a lot left over.
