Hahaha! But they are possibly not looking for quality wine, just a cheap(er) drink. Take your own wine.
It is both ultimately wonderful but also peevishly irritating when an argument ends in total agreement!😉😆😆😆😆

Fair enough! I'll go with that.

That's fair comment. I shouldn't be black and white. I suppose I just dislike the abjuration of responsibility of picking the highest score without bothering to engage more. But, as we've said a lot, I'm not remotely typical - I have time and a desire to connect.

I find it a very nebulous crutch. I'd rather have a story. I've worked in bookshops and wineshops, I made sure I knew my charges well. I think that's a duty of someone trying to take your cash for any item.
But you are right to say I'm no example.

My wonderful friend Fufluns, do remember not to allow these pieces of scum to live rent-free in your mind. They suffer no consequences for you loathing them, but you feel the pain of thinking how utterly despicable they are.

The free world very, very, very obviously needs new leadership. Whom in Europe will provide?

That whole scene was loathsome in the extreme. That's not how international deplomacy should happen. It also showed Trump's mobster mindset when he talked of 'not having the cards' and 'gambling'.
Zelenskyy's Fox interview was wonderful considering he was clearly agitated and it was in English.

Vance has made no secret of his distain for Europe in general and Ukraine in particular. He was there solely to prosecute a pre-planned and staged attack in front of the world's press on a supposed ally whose country has been invaded by a facist dictator. He is a slur on the good name of shit.

It's hard to come up with a rich and engaging game in only 300 characters. Don't feel bad!

Ah I see. No, I'm just three. Possibly. But probably not.

Do you think it suits me @harringirl.bsky.social? Captures the essence of my personality?

It sounds like a rude part of someone's body, so I'm going for the pink fluid with seeds in it.

It would be nice to meet (before May) to drink it!

The Vendages Tardives will not be very sweet, but it should be totally delicious and good with cheese.

I'll leave you to it, then. I would visit with wine, but I cannot go outside without Dani and he has to work a lot, so chances to come into Town are rare.
Have a great day!

I'm not sure I'm known for my pj's, I'm sure they've seen people answering the door in less, or weirder clothing.
Six more bottles of wine to drink, i never get the time😉
Are you at work at the moment?

I like pyjamas. I mooch around the house all day in them.
I just took a delivery and the driver said, "Morning Davy! You're looking well. I've got even more wine for you!" I have a lot of wine collections or deliveries, I seem known because of this...

We did ask for them! Just every TV device seems to come with is own remote...
I am feeling warm and happy this morning, still in my pyjamas! It's so good not to be in pain, we are so much happier.

You need the same solution that we seem to have ended up with - three television remotes.
How are you this morning?

That shit Musk is nothing but a shit. I cannot wait for him to fall out with Trump and get burned.

It was low key paramatter (I'll stop using low key now before you ring me up and scream), I tell you!

I'm stealing that. 'Low key' suits my personality very much, don't you think?

It's turned into paramatter. This is a strange phase of materials that is completely invisible until you have stared at it desperately at least four times.
