It's been more like Autumn here today, gale force winds, chilly, heavy rain, high seas.......so what better way to start the weekend with a quaffing thread....... Just cracked open a very quaffable Pinot Grigio from Italy, ideal whilst finishing of some payroll work!!!!! Cheers all and here's to a win tomorrow, Up The R's
Far too up market for me Tramore as I'm on the Stella. Working both nights over the weekend so I'll have a few beers tonight.
You're a bad influence, Tramore. I would normally have left it til a bit later, but I've just opened a bottle of Chilean sauvignon blanc.
Had a nice Italian Merlot last night so will finish that while Sky spend three hours ****ing over #Pogback, Zlatan and the not particularly special one.
It's only 8.50pm here in Toronto and me and Mrs Nines are just about to have a couple of glasses of chilled Pinot Grigio. It's a nightmare getting a drink here, they don't sell it in the usual shops like in England. You have to go to a specialist wine store which only sells wine. I don't have a clue where you'd buy beer or spirits for home consumption if you don't want to sit in a bar and get ripped off. $10 a pint + tax + gratuity.
How much longer you out there 9's,or are you thinking of emigrating ? Hope your enjoying your time out there pal !
Cheers Junior. We should be home on Wednesday afternoon all things being well. It's been a great trip, especially Washington DC. New York was hard work but good and Toronto's alright but a bit boring. We only came here as we have family here and they have an annual family BBQ/Party which is this weekend.
Lot of Rioja consumed last night at a friend's place as we overstayed our welcome chatting with frequent breaks for Olympic catch ups. An excellent Friday evening.
Dr Jim Beam proscribed some Black label medicine for Mr Aussie last night. Patient was last seen licking the bottle whilst sampling home made pizza. Patient had full stomach and full bladder at nights end. Patient slept like a baby. Patient is on Dr Beams self servicing schedule. Patient likes Dr Beam. Dr Beam likes patient.
That inclement weather moved up through Ireland last night Tramore. Dublin Airport this morning was blowing a gale. My flight was delayed over an hour. Knew it was going to be a bumpy ride when the plane was all over the shop as we sat on the tarmac. Gasping for a pint now.
