Bordeaux will be banned when we leave the EU, it'll be a bottle of tiger beer to support the economy of our new Indian friends.

I don't know about banned. But the exchange rate decline since the vote has put around £1 on the cost price of a lower-mid range French wine. Last year I was getting €1.40 now its €1.08, plus European transport costs are higher. This isn't such a huge problem at mid and high end market, but for the cheapos it will make a difference. Either the price will have to go up, or the quality goes down (even further  ::)  )

Last night I took solace in several 500 ML bottles of Henry Westons oak aged vintage cider. A tasty drop, and with Alcohol rated at 8.2% volume Brexit suddenly lost all complications and became blindingly clear.

I shall experiment again tonight with a larger dose. :)

Effing traitor - burn him. Surely a Brexiteer should be insisting on the imperial equivalent of 568ml  :D

I always sampled a couple of bottles of Stella in 284 ML form. Exactly half an imperial pint. :y

When you're in a hole, stop digging. Stella FFS. We've only just recovered from putting one traitor on the bonfire - you aiming to be the next?  ::)

So two years for the Lord Opti and I to stock up our cellars with vintage European classics before the Brexiteers finally work out how to cast us adrift. Not sure what to do about the Rochfort cheese, the cellar is going to get a bit whiffy with several tons of cheese stored in there for years :-\

Tiger/Cobra beer only seems to work down the Curry house with a Bhuna. Much prefer a Tanglefoot or Hobgoblin at other times.

Getting ready for Christmas M'lud. :y

At 8.2% ABV it won't take many before it is Lord Opti the red nosed.... ::) :P ;D

I've been drinking quite a bit of cider recently. It's made from apples so counts as one of your five a day. :)

I apply similar logic to vegetable intake - a cow, lamb, chicken etc. has already consumed vegetables so I get them second hand by eating meat.
