    Wine

    Having moved down south, I can't afford to drink (beyond my semi milk and water regimen :/ ) half as often as I used to, so when I do get a swift one in, I try to make it as interesting as possible :)

    Been trying wines out for casual drinking and am actually finding them to be delicious! However, I am as much use as an octogenarian with a mobile phone when it comes to these matters.

    Anyone drink much wine, got any suggestions for what might be worth a crack ( on a realistic student's budget ) along those lines?

    I had one then the circus arrived and i think some of them had some, id bought some Rose / Red anyways - dont worry anyways i looked after 1 of yours ;)

    I cant normally drink at afters, thats why i kept saying "In ten minutes" which then turned into a running joke !

    Wine was going down sound anyways :D - same again i think !!

    Banrock station - Shiraz mataro is a good cheapo wine and I'm a bit of a wine snob. Since pregnancy it tastes rank though so they've either changed it or my hormones have taken over my taste buds!

    Aye the Chardonnay and the Cabernet Sauvignon (stripey bottles) both under £3 are decent, better than some bottles that you will pay 5/6 quid for
