    Dave always gets in first... he's super smooth and quick ;)

    how he managed to get us that close in the queue is a work of genius.. maybe it was the Crazy Mary technique Dave... people are suckers for a glug of the ol' red :)


    Think you'll find that V V, Gossard_Is_God and I had pushed into the queue (thank you to the kind people who felt sorry for us and let us in :o ) and then allowed you to join us ;)
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    yeah sorry :o

    i meant we pushed in before the nice guys behind us... not purposely but more in a jovial "hi lets chat to these guys for a bit" and after a while nobody complained so we just stayed... :o

    so thank you to VV Chime and G.I.G. and to the lovely people behind us... much apprecated... hope you enjoyed the £2.79 Sicilian screwtop red :D

    I dunno about you people, but I havent felt this tense or excited about spending £500 of money I havent got since the last of my days on the old nasal ching.

    why couldnt they have it start 10 am GMT !!!

    I think Keith had one. I'm not really a fan of red, but it was looovely. We had to neck it quick time though as we pushed into the queue behind the kilts, who were close to the front, so we didn't have much time to drink it.
