    Beer, tasty beer or larger if it's about. When/if that runs out though...steal the couple of bottles of nice red wine the girlfriend has set aside.

    Try and get to bed at least 15mins before she's due to get up and there's no shit to be had. Otherwise, greet her with a cheeky drunken smile and let her know, you'll be taking over the front room for the day with your mates. Expect a drunken mess to appear at some stage. The next day, pretend that the wine never existed (you bought it anyway) and all is right with the world.

    White or Rose, cant drink Red because as soon as I take a sip I get pains in my Jaw/ears.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,059 ✭✭✭Sindri


    Red.

    I don't sip wine so white just makes me feel sick. Red is usually what I prefer, used to drink 2 bottles a night. Turned into a right little connoisseur.

    Red.

    Cannot stand white at all.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Red or rose.. I don't like white at all really.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,981 ✭✭✭ElleEm


    White wine, freezing cold. Yum!

    Drank too much rose in my student days and vomited red stuff everywhere. Can't touch it since.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,038 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    Mostly Red, but like Rosé on occasions. Don't like White too much, too acidic. I like a good Portuguese verde though. Muralhas is very good.
